‘Lost in Starlight’ Gets Official Trailer; Maitreyi Ramakrishnan & Justin H. Min Join English Cast

Netflix unveiled the official trailer for its debut Korean animated original movie Lost in Starlight, arriving on the streamer on May 30. The streamer also revealed that Maitreyi Ramakrishnan (Never Have I Ever, Turning Red) and Justin H. Min (The Umbrella Academy, After Yang) will voice the lead star-crossed characters for the English-language dub.

Synopsis: Set in Seoul in 2050, Lost in Starlight unfolds the romantic tale of aspiring Mars astronaut Nan-young and reluctant musician Jay. Blending retro and cyberpunk styles, it depicts a uniquely sentimental journey of love and ambition, capturing the spirit of today’s youth.

Capturing a sweet snapshot of the leads’ love on Earth, the key art sets the stage for their story as they prepare to be 225 million kilometers apart. Spotted on the left is Nan-young’s robotic companion — the high-resolution detector aiding Mars exploration research — harmonizing beautifully with the nature around them, blending the analog and cutting-edge elements of their world.

As Nan-young advances in her Mars research, Jay rediscovers his passion for music, encouraged by her support. However, when Nan-young gets a second chance to go to Mars, the couple must face a poignant separation. How will they navigate this challenge?

As previously announced, Kim Tae-ri and Hong Kyung star as Nan-young and Jay, respectively, in the Korean-language version of the film.

Lost in Starlight is directed by Han Ji-won (The Summer), who also wrote the screenplay with Kang Hyun-joo. The animation is produced by Climax Studio.
