The Last Sunrise (2026)
Ry, a college student with a chronic illness, escapes to Mallorca for the summer with her mother, where she unexpectedly falls for a local and begins to embrace living in the moment. But as her condition worsens and long-hidden family secrets come to light, everything she has found before summer's end is threatened.

The Last Sunrise is the kind of romantic drama that earns its emotions the old-fashioned way: with sunlit atmosphere, lived-in performances, and a sense that every tender moment matters because time and circumstance don’t always cooperate. Carlson Young uses Majorca not as a postcard backdrop but as a feeling—warm, intoxicating, and quietly bittersweet—as a young woman caught between health realities and family gravity discovers a love that makes her reconsider what “going home” even means. Maia Reficco brings a vulnerable spark to Ry, Fernando Lindez radiates easy charm without turning Julián into a fantasy, and Eva Longoria grounds the story with a mother’s fierce, complicated devotion. If you’re allergic to earnest, heart-forward romances, this may feel too gentle for your taste, but if you want a movie that lets longing, duty, and hope share the same frame, it’s an easy recommendation.
The Last Sunrise is aiming for a sun-drenched, tender romance about living in the moment when your body and your family won’t let you forget the future, and the Majorca setting does a lot of the heavy lifting. The problem is it leans hard on familiar “summer love vs. going home” beats, so if you’ve seen a few of these, you may feel the story arriving a mile before the characters do. Some viewers will also find the health-challenge angle more like a plot lever than a deeply explored reality, which can make the emotional stakes feel a bit manufactured. If you want a breezy, picturesque romantic drama with a likable couple and a warm supporting turn from Eva Longoria, it’ll go down easy; if you’re craving sharp writing, surprises, or a nuanced family-and-illness portrayal, you’ll probably leave unsatisfied.
