Cut off from civilisation, she is forced to rely on a charming stranger, played by Orlando Bloom, for survival. But as the story unfolds, questions begin to rise about whether he is really who he claims to be.

Speaking about the casting, director Smukler told the portal, "I was looking for a pairing where attraction and mistrust could effortlessly coexist. Priyanka and Orlando have this uncanny ability to make you believe both at once. Their chemistry is undeniable." Producers Jon Hoeber and Erich Hoeber added, "Jordan Rawlins and Matt Smukler have created a gripping story of survival, romance, suspense, and deceit, replete with shocking twists, and we’re thrilled to have partnered with Priyanka and Orlando to bring it to the screen."
