Cast and Crew of Chaos Theory

Chaos Theory

"Chaos Theory" centers on Frank Allen, a meticulous professional speaker whose life is governed by a strict adherence to schedules and time management principles. Played by Ryan Reynolds, Frank prides himself on maintaining order down to the minute, reflecting the precision he advocates in his lectures. His wife, Susan Allen, portrayed by Emily Mortimer, adds a touch of spontaneity to the narrative, gently challenging Frank's rigid approach to life.

One day, Susan playfully sets Frank's clock forward by ten minutes, which unexpectedly derails his perfectly planned day. This small prank acts as a catalyst for Frank's realization that his obsession with control and punctuality has perhaps stifled his spontaneity and happiness. As the fabric of his meticulously ordered world unravels, Frank begins to question the true value of living life by the clock.

Embracing uncertainty, Frank starts creating a series of multiple-choice index cards, each containing different activities or decisions. He chooses one card at random each day, allowing chance to dictate his actions instead of rigid schedules. This fresh approach leads Frank on a transformative journey filled with humor, self-discovery, and the unexpected joys that come from relinquishing control, all while navigating his relationship with Susan.
