A24 brings a soul-stirring fantasy romance this Thanksgiving with Eternity, a film that dares to ask the ultimate question ā what if love could follow you beyond life itself? Directed by David Freyne (The Cured), this tender, time-bending story stars Miles Teller, Elizabeth Olsen, and Callum TurnerĀ in an emotional journey about love, loss, and the choices that define forever. š«
š A Love Triangle Beyond the Grave
āAfter death, everybody gets one week to choose where to spend eternity.ā Thatās the hauntingly beautiful premise at the heart of Eternity.
Joan (Elizabeth Olsen) finds herself in the afterlife, faced with an impossible decision: should she spend eternity with her first love, Luke (Callum Turner) ā the man who died young in a war ā or Larry (Miles Teller), the husband with whom she built a lifetime of memories?
Itās a choice that blurs the line between passion and permanence, between what was and what could have been. In one of the filmās most moving lines, Joan says, āHe was my beginning⦠but you were my everything.āĀ š
š The World Beyond ā A Gentle Afterlife
Set in a pastel-tinted vision of the afterlife, EternityĀ isnāt a grim depiction of death, but a poetic exploration of love that lingers. The film imagines a world where every soul gets seven days to decide where ā and with whom ā theyāll spend forever.
Guided by quirky afterlife coordinators Ryan (John Early) and Anna (DaāVine Joy Randolph), Joan and Larry navigate a world that feels both surreal and tender. Itās equal parts existential comedy and cosmic romance ā think Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless MindĀ meets The Good Place.
š« The Cast That Brings Eternity to Life
Miles TellerĀ delivers a career-best performance as Larry, the steady, grounded partner whose love endures even in death.
Elizabeth OlsenĀ shines as Joan, torn between two lives and two loves ā her portrayal is soulful, introspective, and utterly human.
Callum TurnerĀ brings charm and longing to Luke, the first love who represents youth, freedom, and what might have been.
John EarlyĀ and DaāVine Joy RandolphĀ bring warmth and humor as the afterlife guides trying to help these souls make peace with eternity.
š¬ Behind the Scenes of Forever
Directed by David FreyneĀ (Dating Amber) and written with Pat Cunnane, EternityĀ blends soft fantasy and emotional realism with A24ās signature cinematic flair. The filmās delicate cinematography by RuairĆ OāBrienĀ and score by David FlemingĀ create a dreamlike tone that wraps audiences in nostalgia and melancholy.
Produced by Star Thrower EntertainmentĀ and distributed by A24, EternityĀ premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF)Ā on September 7, 2025, before its U.S. theatrical release on November 14, 2025, just in time for Thanksgiving.
ā¤ļø A24ās Gift for the Soul
EternityĀ is more than just a romance ā itās a meditation on how we love, how we let go, and what we hold onto even after the end. With its blend of humor, heartache, and hope, it promises to be one of A24ās most emotionally resonant films yet.
As Joan reflects in the filmās final scene, āMaybe eternity isnāt forever. Maybe itās just the moments we refuse to forget.āĀ š
