Here (2024)

A tale of love, loss, laughter and life, Here brings us a story that travels through generations and across multiple families in the special place they inhabit.

The film reunites Oscar winner Tom Hanks and Golden Globe winner Robin Wright with the Oscar-winning team behind Forrest Gump – director Robert Zemeckis (Back to the Future, Contact) and screenwriter Eric Roth (Killers of the Flower Moon, Dune: Part One, A Star is Born).

The stacked cast includes Critics Choice nominees Paul Bettany (WandaVision, A Beautiful Mind), Kelly Reilly (Yellowstone's Beth Dutton) and Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey's Lady Mary Crawley), as well as Ophelia Lovibond (Minx) and Nigerian-British BAFTA nominee Nikki Amuka-Bird (Knock at the Cabin).

Several cast members, including Hanks and Wright, were digitally de-aged for certain scenes, and Here was nominated for this year’s Emerging Technology Award from the Visual Effects Society. The film also won the 2025 International Film Music Critics awards for Composition of the Year and Best Original Score for a Drama Film for Oscar-nominated composer Alan Silvestri (Forrest Gump, Back to the Future).
