🌌 Eternity (2025): A24’s Afterlife Romance Asks the Ultimate Question—Who Would You Spend Forever With?

“You get one week to choose where to spend eternity… but it’s not about the place. It’s about the people.”

The mind behind Dating Amber and the studio that brought us Everything Everywhere All At Once and Moonlight invite us into the afterlife—awkward conversations, lost loves, and all. Directed by David Freyne, Eternity is an A24 romantic comedy with a cosmic twist, where death isn’t the end—it’s the beginning of a very complicated love triangle.

Starring Miles Teller, Elizabeth Olsen, and Callum Turner, this deeply original film floats into theaters this November, promising heartbreak, hilarity, and soul-searching across the great beyond.

💭 What Happens After You Die? Decisions. Regrets. And Possibly… Closure.

In Eternity, the rules of the afterlife are simple:Everyone gets one week to choose where they want to spend eternity.

But for Joan (Elizabeth Olsen), this final choice isn’t so simple. She’s caught between:

• Luke (Callum Turner), her passionate first love who vanished from her life,

• And Larry (Miles Teller), the steady partner she built her world with.

As the clock ticks down in limbo, Joan, Larry, and Luke navigate one last chance to talk, reflect, and reconcile the messy truths of love.

“It’s not heaven. It’s not hell. It’s just... unfinished business.”

💔 Love, Laughter & Limbo: The Perfect A24 Vibe

Imagine the quirky existential tone of The Good Place mixed with the emotional honesty of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind—then layer in the warm, offbeat intimacy only A24 can deliver.

Eternity doesn’t just ask, “What if you could meet your exes after death?” It asks:👉 “Would you still choose them?”👉 “Did you ever forgive them?”👉 “Was it real love or just the right timing?”

In this space between life and whatever comes next, every choice becomes a confession.

🎭 Cast That Hits the Heart

• Elizabeth Olsen (WandaVision) delivers a vulnerable, nuanced performance as Joan, a woman torn between memory and meaning.

• Miles Teller (Whiplash, Top Gun: Maverick) plays Larry, the grounded, loyal partner who might just be her forever.

• Callum Turner (Fantastic Beasts) is Luke, the what-if that never stopped echoing.

• Da’Vine Joy Randolph (Oscar-winner for The Holdovers) brings wisdom and warmth as Anna, a guide through the afterlife.

• John Early and Olga Merediz add levity and heart as quirky souls navigating their own choices in eternity.

📽️ A Cosmic Rom-Com for the Soul

Directed by David Freyne and written by Pat Cunnane, Eternity made its emotional premiere at TIFF 2025, earning early buzz for its balance of biting humor, melancholic charm, and honest emotional resonance.

“Some people find heaven. Others find each other.”

With a running time of 112 minutes, the film is tightly packed with tender glances, bittersweet laughs, and dialogue that cuts deep without shouting.

🎶 Music, Memory, and Moving On

Backed by an original score from David Fleming (Hillbilly Elegy), the film’s soundscape flows between melancholic piano and whimsical strings, every note soaked in longing.

And the visuals? Cinematographer Ruairí O'Brien gives the afterlife a soft, timeless glow, like a memory you wish you could live in forever.

💌 A24's Signature: Heartbreaking, Hopeful, and Human

Just like Midsommar, Moonlight, and Uncut Gems, Eternity doesn’t follow the rules of mainstream romance. It breaks them. Because sometimes, love stories don’t need a happy ending—just a meaningful one.

🌟 Final Thoughts: Would You Choose Them Again?

Eternity dares to ask the ultimate post-life question—not where you’d want to spend forever… but with whom.

It’s a romantic comedy with death at its center and love as its final answer. Thought-provoking, deeply human, and unmistakably A24.
