Miley Cyrus starred in the film *The Last Song*, a movie adaptation of a novel written by Nicholas Sparks. The film generated considerable attention due to Miley’s transition from her role in the Disney Channel series *Hannah Montana* to more mature, dramatic roles in feature films. This project was key in her career trajectory, aiming to establish her versatility as an actress beyond her teenage pop star persona.
Despite largely negative reviews from film critics, who pointed to its predictable plot and underwhelming performances, *The Last Song* was successful at the box office. It grossed over $89 million worldwide against a production budget of approximately $20 million. The film's financial success highlighted Miley's drawing power and marked a transition point in her career from teen idol to a serious actress.
The film's storyline centers on a rebellious teenager who reconnects with her estranged father during a summer in a beach town. The emotional depth and mature themes of the film required Miley to take on a more serious and complex role, which contributed to expanding her acting range. Her co-stars, including Greg Kinnear and Liam Hemsworth, added to the film's appeal.
*The Last Song* also played a significant role in Cyrus's personal life, as it was on the set of this film that she met Liam Hemsworth. Their relationship, widely covered by media outlets, became a significant focus for fans and the celebrity press over the subsequent years.
