Looks like Liam Hemsworth is going to be Down Under for a little bit longer.

Miley Cyrus' fiancé has canceled his plans to attend the world premiere of his flick Empire State, where he was scheduled to appear March 19 in Tampa, Fla. Costars Dwayne Johnson and Emma Roberts are also skipping out on the Gasparilla International Film Festival, although they were both scheduled to attend as well.

The news comes after rampant reports claiming the on-again-off-again twosome of nearly four years have called in quits, although a source exclusively told E! News "they are not giving up" on their "rocky" relationship. 

Still, the hunky Hunger Games star's extended plans in Australia seemingly suggest the young couple's relationship is still in trouble, and Hemsworth's recent purchase of an Aussie bachelor pad only adds fuel to the breakup fire.

In the meantime, Liam has been keeping close to his family and friends (he was spotted shopping at a local supermarket with his mom yesterday), and local sources tell E! News he's in a "relaxed" mood despite the media frenzy surrounding the pair's relationship status.

Meanwhile, Mileybird has stayed rather mum on social media after insisting she did not call off her wedding, and she's been keeping busy in Los Angeles by hanging out with friends.
