The actor’s Instagram post sharing the trailer is filled with nostalgia and love — Hemsworth revealed the trip’s conception: after years of discussing it, the opportunity finally gained urgency since his father’s diagnosis. He wrote, My Dad and I had always spoken about taking a trip back to the Northern Territory…but we had never been able to set aside the time…More recently the idea…re-emerged with more pressing importance.
