кадр из фильма «Я — легенда»

In the not-too-distant future, scientists have found a cure for cancer, but miscalculated: after testing the drug, 99% of the population is turned into infectious mutant ghouls. Dr. Robert Neville (Will Smith) was one of the remaining percentage of healthy people. By day, in the company of his faithful dog, he walks around an empty New York City, hunting antelope and setting traps on the infected, and by night, barricaded in a mansion, he tries to develop a vaccine and sends messages into the silent ether to other possible survivors.

There's a possibility that a long-awaited sequel to the movie will be released next year. The action in "I Am Legend 2" develops a decade after the events described in the first part.

Trapped (2017) is not exactly one actor, because sometimes some minor character flashes, but also almost fits the genre)

"The Martian", in my opinion, is superfluous in the list. Yes, Mark is stuck alone on Mars, but his rescue, the work of people on Earth, the crew of Hermes, is an important part of the plot. The film is not about life on Mars, but about salvation from Mars with the help of people. About being alone in space, Gravity is more suitable.
And another good movie "Guilty", better not an American remake, but the Danish original.

@myauser: I agree, it's enough, but only Farrell keeps all the attention on himself)). I can't even remember the others.

There is still a very good movie "Hope will not fade away" (https://myshows.me/movie/7795 /) with Robert Redford, something like an Outcast. There the hero is not only completely alone, but he still does not utter almost a single word all the time.

Locke is beautiful... but the Martian does not fit the criteria, since there are people in the frame and without a potato lover - completely... So where is All Is Lost with Robert Redford?

In the news with a review of films with two actors, I suggested that it is probably necessary now to review films with one actor... I'm glad it came true! ;)

I can't be responsible for other films, because I didn't watch something, I don't remember something well, but there's definitely not one person in the frame in the Martian. There's half a film showing a rescue operation on the Ground, his crew. Yes, the focus is on gg, but on the screen we see a bunch of people who are involved in the process of bringing him home.
