About What Happens Later

They missed their connection.

"What Happens Later" is a romantic comedy that brings together two ex-lovers, Willa, played by Meg Ryan, and Bill, portrayed by David Duchovny. The two find themselves stuck at a regional airport overnight due to a snowstorm, indefinitely delayed from their respective destinations. Willa, a hopeless romantic with a penchant for magical thinking, and Bill, a pragmatic and catastrophic thinker, can't help but be drawn to each other, despite their differences and the years that have passed since their last encounter.

As the night progresses, Willa and Bill can't help but reminisce about their past and the dreams they once shared. They unpack the riddle of their relationship, trying to understand what went wrong and if they could have done things differently. The airport becomes a bubble, a space outside of time and reality, where they can be honest with each other and themselves. The sexual tension between them is palpable, and they can't help but be attracted to each other, despite their best efforts to resist.

As the snowstorm rages on outside, Willa and Bill start to wonder if their reunion is mere coincidence, or if there's something more enchanted at play. They begin to see each other in a new light, and the possibility of a second chance at love becomes tantalizingly real. The movie explores the idea of fate and destiny, asking whether two people can truly be meant for each other, despite the obstacles that life throws in their way. With charming performances from its leads and a witty script, "What Happens Later" is a delightful and heartwarming romantic comedy that will leave you believing in the magic of love.
