Eternity, the A24 film starring Elizabeth Olsen, soon on our screens

Studio A24 unveils “Eternity”, an existential romantic drama starring Elizabeth Olsen, Miles Teller and Callum Turner. A story of love and the afterlife.

A24 strikes again. After Challengers and Materialists, the independent company returns with Eternity, a film that promises to be as poetic as it is disturbing. Directed by David Freyne and co-written with Pat Cunnane, the film poses a heart-rending question: what happens after death if love is still to be decided?

A bold, existential concept

In Eternity, each soul hasone week after death to choose where – and, more importantly, with whom – to spend eternity. Joan, played by Elizabeth Olsen, must decide between her first love, Luke (Callum Turner), who awaits her in the afterlife, and Larry (Miles Teller), the man she’s lived a lifetime with.

A painful choice, in a setting between dream and reality. This pitch, at once romantic and metaphysical, promises to be fertile ground for emotional dilemmas, memory, grief, and the meaning of true love.

High-potential distribution

With Elizabeth Olsen in the lead, the film naturally attracts a lot of attention. The actress, revealed by WandaVision and acclaimed for her nuanced acting, promises a sensitive, interior interpretation. Callum Turner, seen in The Boys in the Boat, aptly embodies a love frozen in time. As for Miles Teller, he returns to a romantic register, far from his more physical roles(Whiplash, Top Gun: Maverick), to embody stability and deep attachment.

A24 aesthetics in all their glory

Produced by Star Thrower Entertainment and distributed by A24, the film promises to be faithful to the studio’s style: polished aesthetics, fine narration and chiseled dialogue. In fact, the script was on the Black List 2022, which lists the most promising scripts of the year.

What about Paris?

A24 films often enjoy Parisian previews in independent cinemas. You can expect a screening at Reflet Médicis, L’Arlequin, or UGC Les Halles, landmarks of cinephiles.
