#after ever happy by Anna Todd

[jedi-hawkins]

This is completely unrelated to what I normally blog/reblog but I bought After by Anna Todd months ago and just picked it up. Read the whole fucking 582 page book in ONE SITTING and now I don’t know what to do with myself besides figure out how to get my hands on the rest of the series as fast as possible.

After everything 2023

You're my breath, my pain, my heart, my life! You're my better place, Tess. We needed to be able to stand alone before we could stand together, and I'm so thankful that we made it through the darkness, the fighting, the pain, and emerged hand in hand, stronger than ever.

Will you marry me?

So I definitely cried while watching this although I've read the books more than 6 or 7 times,

Ps: when he took off his ring to propose her>>>>>>>>>>>>>

As a reader you have a choice to love or hate hardin but as a writer Anna Todd really tried hard to justify all his actions.

After Ever Happy (2022) - Movie Review

(Based on the novel series After by Anna Todd)

CW: Alcohol Addiction and Overdose.

Obligatory Disclaimer: Did not read the source material. Most reference to them is speculation or public knowledge.

Here were are again. Harden (Hero Fiennes Tiffin) and Tessa (Josephine Langford) have once again graced our straight to streaming/DVD screens with another look at their whirlwind of a toxic romance, for the 4th installment of the After series.

Wild revelations were dropped in the last movie (After We Fell) and if you’ve been following this series, not in the book, than you kinda wanted to know what was gonna come from all the cracks in this couple’s, as well as their family’s lives. You probably felt a little bad for them and hoped that some growing would take place and old patterns wouldn’t be followed.... Okay, maybe that was a bit much in the hoping department, cause unless you actually love this couple, you already know what’s to come. You know that there is no saving them and you wish that they would do themselves a favor and finally let go of the toxic strings that tie them together, but you also know that won’t happen.

After Ever Happy is what you get when you haven’t found a way or refuse to stop the push and the pull and you know your core audience will just follow you right to the edge of that cliff every time. As for me, I’m here for the downfall and the potential for a movie review.

See it can’t be for the spice cause that part was not good. There was maybe 2 maybe 3 spicy scenes in the entire film and the first was so ill-placed that I was done with it before it even finished, as with the rest of them. I’m sorry but the sex you use to fix your poor communication wasn’t enticing enough to my eyes or my feels, for me to say this works. 

It once again couldn’t be any of the parts in the story that I hoped would get some real attention either, cause spoiler alert, they didn’t. There are some heavy themes in this story and I just wanted something tangible done with them. You don’t have to preform a miracle, just do better. I’ve said this multiple times (across several reviews in this series) CARE ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS!

Oh and although predictable, we’re not here for the continued rip on 50 Shades of Grey. Another thing I’ve mentioned before. A lot of romance novels eat off of each other’s plates, so much so that many are simply regurgitating the same story with slight variations. The After series takes big bites and expects folks not to notice or knows people see it and ignores that elephant in the room. Now this isn’t the downfall of this movie, it’s just funny that they do it and makes those parts worse. 

There is no growth here. This relationship is not everlasting. It’s not meant to defy all odds. It’s a burning building and anyone who tells you that this is what unconditional love looks like, has already breathed in too much smoke and can most likely not be saved, just like Tess cannot save Harden.

A positive though, is that the cast has finally gotten consistent. I didn’t see a recast of anyone I would have remembered and the people who are here now have been with us for at least 2 or 3 films at this point. You lose a lot with constant recasting, so thanks for keeping who you could.

Okay, so at this point we all know what we’re getting and just like Tumblr acknowledges what kind of platform they got, the After series is acknowledging the kind of toxic romance they’ve created. I haven’t seen them do that before, but I imagine if enough people tell you something about yourself, sometimes you have to admit defeat, thus bringing us here.It’s the 4th movie and possibly one of the first times that we’re all on the same page. Not for long though, cause we all saw that “To Be Continued...” and know there are 2 more movies to follow this one.

Here’s what we’re all gonna do.... We’re gonna keep going, cause we’re invested, we’re gonna keep saying that this relationship is toxic, so that everyone who romanticizes it doesn’t get a moment of peace and eventually realizes it too and then when this is all over we’re gonna move onto the next story with another toxic relationship. It’s called rinse and repeat for slight entertainment.

.

If you’re interested check out my reviews of After,  After We Collided and After We Fell, the first 3 films in this series, if you’re curious about what I thought of those movies. 

Bonus Spoiler Commentary Below:

I am not mad that Harden wrote a book about his and Tessa’s relationship as therapy, however I’m not big on the idea that he could just put it out there like that. The book seemed to cover every detail and I’d personally wouldn’t want my intimate life displayed like that without some knowledge or buffer. Like he just showed up with a manuscript and a meeting and she’s just supposed to be like “cool.” I don’t need Harden to be a good person, I just need him to stop with the BS and remember that the world doesn’t revolve around him.

After: Ever Never

Part One: Chapter One

After staring at him give his speech on self-improvement and his book "After" I can't help but feel a sharp pang in my chest, the words flow from him seamlessly, and right then and there, I know that this is Hardin.

He was meant to do this, to be this; the truth is in the eyes, and right now, Hardin is pleased. In many ways, Hardin was my savior, love, and retribution to claim something for once without Carol, my mother. I loved how he worshipped me. For once in my life, I have to walk away. Another second of this, and I'll scream for the boy I once loved because I can't give him up. I love him too much, but nothing escapes when I open my mouth.

I'm no Jane Austen. But Hardin, Hardin has a talent. He was born to do this, and I, Tessa Young, have played my role in his story. It's over.

As one says at a funeral, I mutter a goodbye and leave the area, running in the rain, anything to escape him, it, my head, my life. For so long, I've let Carol drive me; I know nothing other than Hardin, how my soul always finds his. We are kindred spirits, but we are broken, and this time, I don't know how the story will end. Everyone says I bring out the best in him, but he brought the best out of me.

Before, and now, after him. You may ask how, and that's fair. When you think of love, you think of your first. He was my first. He consumed me, took me in. What I failed to realize is I, too, like him, am a parasite. We thrive on each other, the pain, and the suffering. At the moment, it feels good, but then reality sets in, and we realize we are emotionally draining and damaging to each other. Love like that is the best and the worst.

It consumes you, so you allow the abuse. You take it all in because love is supposed to hurt. It's supposed to feel like anguish sometimes because love without fighting doesn't exist. Right?

Even if we make up, what happens next? We fall in love again? Live together? Grow old? We won't have to worry about getting pregnant.

It's not like Hardin would up and leave. He's not that kind of toxic. In many ways, he's known to have a temper, lash out and be an asswipe, but one thing Hardin Scott would obsess over is knowing that he'd gotten me pregnant. Not because he would finally make me his but because he would eventually have something. Something that couldn't lie or run away from him. His. And I'd do anything to give that to him.

december 23

It's not just about having a pretentious love story or making it work just for the sake of love.

It's neither about doing what it takes to keep the other nor is it about fixing what's desired to be shattered everytime.

It's also not about being selfish in a relationship or going over the bridge in the name of efforts put down. It just might be walking parallel but together or it could be anything what the two want it to be in the heat of the moment.

More often it becomes of moving in circles having no end and meaning left to why it started in the first place.

But no one keeps the count to why they wanted it foremost, we never do. We desire which make and break us. We choose to suffer, suffocate and fly at the same time. Mankind runs that way. The theory of life works that way.

There is nothing kept in running behind what's worth trying and just what exactly is lethal, we attempt everything because we aspire of it. If we didn't we wouldn't be breathing between our chokes or risking our lives to every nightmares that could simply kill us in our sleeps.

We are all living and loving but all in circles. Atleast mine is yet to find the dot.

A Sweet Mishap Masterlist | Main Masterlist

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───

Noticing Anna’s finally asleep, I slip out of the bedroom to talk to Nick. He says that he spoke to Stella, since she was worried when he didn’t get home on time and that they’re happy to have us stay with them for a while. Not just for Anna’s sake but also because he’s concerned about Todd finding out about my interference. 

My alarm goes off and I curse. “I can’t leave her. I promised. Stewie’s gonna be so pissed.”

“Doesn’t he have young daughters? I’m sure he’d understand.”

“He would, but I don’t want to keep sharing her story. It’s not my place.”

“I know. Just be vague, tell him a friend had an emergency and you’re helping them through it.”

I nod and turn off the alarm and call Stewie. I apologise profusely as I vaguely explain the circumstances. He’s unsurprisingly not happy about the late notice but understands and agrees to let me have the morning off. I also make the decision to skip my classes, but I’m hoping that I can get her settled enough with Stella that I can still make tonight’s rehearsals. But I’m willing to skip them too if she needs me. I may never have been put first, but I plan to do it for her. 

I notice the missed texts from Jensen have doubled to 30, but I ignore them. I have bigger problems, especially after his jealousy-fuelled and misled comments. Despite knowing it could fix things, I refuse to share someone else’s problems with someone that I clearly still don’t know that well. 

I notice Nick get up and stretch. “You think you’ll be okay here for a bit while I go for a walk and sus things out and pick us up some breakfast?” I nod. He pulls out his phone and calls me, I give him a confused look but answer anyway. “Keep your phone on you and don’t hang up. I don’t trust this guy. Don’t answer the door for anyone.”

I nod and then reach for my keys and hand them to him. “Good idea. Thanks. I’ll be as quick as I can.”

“Thank you.”

He nods as he turns and leaves, looking as confident as ever. I sit back down on the couch, keeping an eye on Anna as she sleeps soundly in my bed. I feel a mix of emotions swirling inside me - concern for Anna's safety, relief that Nick is here to help, and a twinge of worry. As I glance at Anna, her peaceful expression brings a small smile to my face. Despite the chaos that has entered my life, I feel a sense of determination to protect her, to be there for her in any way I can. I know what it's like to feel alone and vulnerable, and I refuse to let Anna go through this ordeal by herself.

I keep my phone near my ear to listen to what’s happening outside, but it’s quiet. I hear the normal hustle and bustle of a New York City morning, but there’s no yelling. I feel reassured, hoping that this means that we can sneak over to Manhattan unnoticed after breakfast. While waiting for Nick to return, I stare at the unopened box still sitting on the coffee table. Despite my annoyance, I decide to open it. I tear the tape as quietly as possible and pull open the cardboard flaps to reveal a black leather jacket. As I carefully lift it out of the box, I unfold it to reveal the sleeves which are decorated with colourful embroidered flowers. I flip it over to look at the back and my name is embroidered in beautiful white cursive and surrounded by more intricate, colourful flowers and green leaves. The sound of a key turning in the lock startles me out of my thoughts. Nick enters, carrying a couple of paper bags filled with breakfast goodies in one hand and three coffee cups in the other. He sets them down on the kitchen counter and joins me on the couch.

"Everything okay?" I ask quietly.

Nick nods, his eyes scanning the room, making sure Anna is okay. He nods at the jacket, “That’s nice. Big splurge with your broadway salary?”

“Nah…It’s from Jensen.”

“Wow. Must be nice to be able to afford to splurge like that…”

“Yeah…Anyway, I should get Anna up so we can get back to your place before her ex starts up again.” I go back into my bedroom and sit down on my bed beside Anna. I don’t want to touch her or anything incase she gets startled. I don’t know the full extent of what this man has done to her. Instead, I softly say her name. She’s unsurprisingly a light sleeper and fliches alittle at the sound. She looks up at me with wide eyes and I try to calm her with soft words. I assure her that Nick is still here and Todd never came looking, and he’s gone from the lobby. I explain that there’s food and coffee if she wants it, but we want to get going as soon as possible in case he comes back downstairs. 

She nods and slowly sits up. I don’t rush her, I just get up and start to throw a few essentials into a bag. 

A few hours later, she’s set up in Stella’s guestroom to stay as long as she needs. Knowing she’s got food in her stomach and a safe place to stay, I finally relax a little. I feel a little bad for dragging Nick and Stella into this and making her take off work too, but they both assure me that it’s okay and Anna’s safety is more important. While Nick goes to take a quick nap after the long night, Stella and I relax on the couch and chat. After discussing my classes and rehearsals and her promotion extensively, the conversation turns to Valentine’s Day, and despite her knowing exactly how the night ended, she asks if Jensen at least sent anything. I tell her about the jacket but also the call and his assumptions. She shakes her head and sighs, asking if he at least apologized. I show her the 30 plus unread messages and missed calls and she encourages me to call him. Despite, taking my side completely, she also says he should get the chance to tell his side and apologize, especially since he sent such a special gift days earlier; a gift which she says I need to thank him for, even if he was rude after-the-fact.

I accept her side and decide to call him. I walk outside to their back patio before pressing the call button. I know that waiting so long bears a large risk of him being back on set and not near his phone, but I’m not sure if that’s partly what I’m hoping. However, to my surprise, he answers on the third ring. 

“Hey…” he says sullenly.

“Hi,” I reply, trying to hide any emotions.

“I’m sorry. I was jealous and missing you, and I know that’s no excuse. I just…”

“I understand, it’s just…I’ve told you about my past. You know what I’ve been through and yet you would still accuse me cheating.”

“Well, as far as I know, we’re not officially dating. And so it wouldn’t be cheating exactly.”

“Yeah, that’s true, but still…Also, you can lose the tone with me. I’m not in the mood.”

His tone instantly changes from accusatory and sarcastic to apologetic. “I’m sorry.”

“Because I said I’d explain, last night I met a girl who needed help. She was all alone on Valentines and reminded me of myself when I was at my worst. I know you would have wanted to be my number one priority on Valentines, I would have loved that too. But she needed to know that she was. So, uh, it sucked that when I was trying so hard to show her that things can get better I had to also deal with your childish jealousy on top of that.”

“Shit, is she okay? I should’ve known you’d been dealing with something serious…”

“She will be.”

“I’m sorry. Thank you for explaining everything, eventhough I didn’t really deserve it. It’s so you and so nice of you to go out of your way to help someone else in need. I’m glad she’s gonna be okay. Is there any way I can make it up to you?”

“Honestly? I don’t know. You used my worst insecurities against me. I don’t know how you went from being concerned about my safety to accusing me of hooking up with someone so quickly.”

“Stupid insecurities is how…I should’ve just trusted you.”

“I know, it just might take a while for me to move past this, okay?”

“I understand. Did you-”

“Yes. It’s beautiful. Thank you. I just don’t know if I’m ready to wear it after last night.”

“Yeah…I had this whole speech planned. It’s probably cheesy as hell and it’s probably irrelevant now but-”

“Tell me anyway. I want to hear it.”

“Okay…uh…Understudy or not I wanted you to know that you’re my pink lady. One day I want to be the J-bird you deserve. I know the letter T has a bad history for you, so hence…J. But after last night, I also wanted to add that I’m gonna shape up. I deserved to be left alone at the hypothetical drive-in last night, but one day I’m gonna take you to the fair and be the one that you want. Because you, Y/N, you are the one that I want.”

Tears well up, and I try not to let everything go and forgive him in the moment. “Jensen…”

“Too cheesy?”

“Yes…No…It’s perfect. just , uh, Jens?”

“Yeah?”

“You’d better shape up, cause I need a man who can keep me satisfied. And I know deep down inside…I like you, Jens, I do. But I deserve better than whatever that was last night.”

“I know. I agree.”

“Anyway, I should, uh, I go back in and check on Anna.”

“Yeah, I hope she’s okay. Let me know if there’s anything I can do, even if it’s financial. Whatever you need. And if you’re worried about your independence we can call it an indefinite loan.”

“Stella and Nick are helping out, so it should be okay. But thanks, that means a lot.”

“Anytime. Sorry again and happy belated Valentine’s Day, Darlin’.”

“Thanks.” I hang up and just stare up at the sky for a few minutes as I gather my thoughts and emotions before going back inside.

After extensive reassurance from all parties, I finally concede and let Nick drive me to rehearsals on his way to work, leaving Anna with Stella who I know is more than capable. I try my best to stay focused, but my mind keeps wandering back to her throughout the entirety. When Alysa asks if I’m going to stay back for the understudy practice, I almost decline, but she persuades me. Nick had promised to give me a lift back to their place during his break, so I wouldn’t be able to get back before midnight anyway. As I practice Sandy’s parts I can’t help but imagine Jensen as Danny and it helps me give a more passionate performance – or at least Alyson says so. 

As our unofficial understudy practice comes to an end, I gather my things, feeling a mix of emotions. Nick is waiting outside in the car, ready to take me back to his place, where Anna is hopefully doing better. The drive is quiet, both of us lost in our own thoughts. When we arrive, Stella is sitting on the porch steps, a serene expression on her face. She stands up as she sees us approaching.

“Hey there,” Stella greets me, a warm smile on her face. “Anna's doing much better now. She fell asleep not too long ago.” The relief washes over me, knowing that Anna is safe and resting.

Nick comes over and gives Stella a quick peck on the lips and then I thank him for the ride before watching as he drives off into the night, back to the club for the rest of his shift. Turning to Stella, I take a seat beside her on the steps. The cool evening breeze plays with our hair as we sit in companionable silence for a moment.

“This has got to be bringing up some memories,” Stella says after a while.

“Yeah…I’m strong though.”

“I know. So, what did you decide about Jensen?”

“Long distance is hard, especially when we barely know each other, but I like him. I want it to work. What he said hurt, and it’s gonna take a lot of time and hard work. But I think he’s willing to put in the effort.”

“His little stunt at the wedding may have taken a little of the spotlight off me and Nick, but it also added a lot. Even in New York not everyone gets to have a celebrity sing for their first dance. It was special, even though I knew he was only doing it to get to you. But he did learn a song in a matter of days because I asked. He’s not your average celebrity, hell, he’s not your average guy.”

“He’s not.” I shake my head and let out a breathy laugh. “He’s so cheesy too. He got me this leather jacket because he had this whole speech about Sandy and Danny and the T-Birds, which renamed to the J-Birds because he knows about the T-Wads.”

Stella squeals and lightly stomps her feet on the wooden steps in excitement. “That’s so cute! See!”

“Yeah…I think he’s a keeper.”

“As long as he can control his temper and jealousy.”

“Yeah…But I do understand where he was coming from. I feel the same whenever I see pics of him with female fans or co-stars. It’s hard to know when we’ve known each other so briefly and are so far apart.”

“And especially with your past experiences, I can understand on your side. Do you know if-”

“I never really asked, but he did mention once that his relationships with other actresses haven’t ended well. So, maybe…I hope not. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone.”

“Yeah…” Stella stands up with her arms wrapped around herself. “Anyway, we should try to get some sleep. You sure you’re okay on the couch? I’m happy to share, Nick won’t be back until dawn.”

“It’d be like old times…But nah, I’m sure. And at least then if Anna wakes up I’ll know.”

“Alright,” she says as she pulls the door open.

We go inside and go out separate ways, Stella up to the master suite and me to shower and change before snuggling up on the couch with a thick fluffy blanket and one of their spare pillows. I send a quick good night text to Jensen before switching my phone to silent and rolling over.

In the morning the four of us share a quick breakfast together before Nick goes up to bed. Stella takes another day off to be with Anna and to take her shopping for some essentials to make her feel more comfortable. On the way to the shop, Stella drops me off at the cafe. Before getting out the car I reassure Anna that she’s safe with Stella and agree to meet them for lunch between my classes later in the afternoon. My shift passes similarly to rehearsals last night, with only half of my mind on the tasks at hand; luckily making standard coffees is almost a habit I could do with my eyes closed. 

Despite not having had a chance to complete the readings, I stumble through my first class before meeting Stella and Anna in a nearby cafe for a light lunch of toasted sandwiches. I can tell Anna feels guilty about Stella paying for everything and for taking up so much of both our our time and attention. So far she’s eaten like a bird but she forces herself to finish the sandwich and soda in a bid not to waste the money being spend on her. 

I give her a reassuring smile. “We all need a hand up sometimes. I know how hard it is now but you can just focus on you now and you’ll climb your way back up. Whatever he said or did to you doesn’t define you. You can be whoever you want to be.”

She keeps her gaze fixed on her empty plate.

Stella and I share and look. “It’s okay to not have any answers right now. Take you time. You’re still young. Nick and I are happy to have you for as long as you need. Truth is, eventhough we just got married, we’re unsure of the next steps. Neither of us are ready for kids so that room is free for the foreseeable future. So, it’s yours for as long as you want it.”

My alarm goes off signalling it’s time to head to my next class. I place my hand softly on Anna’s. “We’re both here for you. Whatever you need.” I smile at Stella and add, “I’ll see you guys after rehersals.” As I walk to class I can’t help but feel guilty about dumping her on Stella while I get to have my shot and start chasing my dreams, but at the same time I can’t bring myself to throw them away when my hard work is finally starting to pay off. I’m determined to make it all work: help Anna get back on her feet, graduate, get on broadway and pursue a relationship with Jensen, and as a bonus, help Stewie save Mamma Jo’s. Eventhough it’s midway through February, I’m cementing those in as my new, New Year’s resolutions.

On the subway on my way to rehearsals I text Jensen.

I need your help with somethingBut feel free to say noI don’t want to take advantage of you

After a few minutes my phone chimes.

Name it

I want to help save Stewie and the cafeDo you think you could help raise funds or at least publicity?

I should have known it wouldn’t be for you I was ready to transfer money

I already told youI don’t want your moneyBut I could use your influence

I’ll make some calls See if anyone in New York needs catering services I’d offer to put out a post myself but that would expose us

Yeah. Not yet. I’d appreciate you reaching out though Anything to boost business more and get the name out there

I leave for Sweden a week from tomorrow.

Holy shit.

I am so incredibly excited. So many fun adventures planned with Pocki. Traveling to Helsingborg for the last night of the Snö och marshaller tour. Hopefully (fingers crossed) get to meet Helen and Anna after the concert, buy a vinyl (maybe a candle if those are still available) and maybe hopefully get a picture with them.

If nothing else, I’m seeing Anna Stadling live for the first time, and Helen live again for the second time.

I never ever thought this could be my life. And I’m so fucking happy. I love not having children, I love not having someone controlling every aspect of who I am and what I do and how I spend my money.

Tomorrow’s adventure is a day trip to New York to see Wicked with my mom.

I’ll also be going back the weekend after I come back from Sweden to see the closing night of 1776.

And there’s so much else - We Start In Manhattan in February, Bad Cinderella (gotta see it for Carolee) in March? April? Sweeney Todd with Josh Groban in April.

Oohh then Taylor Swift in May and hopefully Sweden again in June for Midsommar!!

After Ever Happy

Me meeting Anna Todd in person one day:

A quick heads-up and probably one of the most heated posts I’ll ever write:

This book and movie series is not helping anyone. Quite the opposite, in fact!

It’s a perpetually toxic and letting a moderatley attractive dude get away with everything nightmare with messages that are anything but healthy to adapt to.

And to read how the author not only dismisses the problematicness of her series, no, but also pats herself on the shoulder through Hardin for writing this is horrifying to me.

Young girls are reading this. Young girls are including this in their lifes. And undoubtedly there are also boys who take this book and movie adaptations without any grain of salt.

I thought it couldn’t get worse from the author using her honestly impressive energy and willingess to write so much to create this of all things, but also sees herself as some kind of ... hero.

After Movies In Order: A Comprehensive Guide

After months of waiting, After Everything, the fifth and last film in the After series, is currently showing in US theatres and will shortly be on Prime Video in the UK. Hardin (Hero Fiennes Tiffin) sets out to find Tessa (Josephine Langford) and win her back in Lisbon, Portugal; in this last movie, He also encounters his former flame Natalie (Mimi Keene) and deals with his book publisher. It's a fantastic moment to binge-watch the other After films as the show finishes—can you believe it's over? There are how many films? In what sequence should you see them? Fanfiction typically finds its way from the internet to books to movies, much as 50 Shades of Grey, inspired by Twilight or The Love Hypothesis, which emerged from Star Wars. These romances can be exciting, given their visual material and minor editing. See this blog for the After Movies In Order of release date and where they fit in the chronology to go further into the After series and grasp what happened when. What are the After Movies In Order? Based on the series of After novels penned by Anna Todd, the After films are a set of films. Starting on Wattpad's social storytelling platform in 2013, Todd started penning the stories that would eventually become After, somewhat inspired by Harry Styles. Todd created three After volumes on Wattpad after uploading a fresh chapter of After every day for almost a year. Then, in 2014, the show was transformed into a new series. Released in 2019, the first After film chronicles the relationship between Tessa Young (Josephine Langford) and Hardin Scott (Hero Finnes Tiffin), who start their romance during Tessa's first year at university. Later films looked at the ups and downs of their relationship. After Movies In Order and by Release Date The After Film series consists of five films; the first, After Movies, was released in April 2019, and the fifth and last, After Everything, was released in September 2023. After (2019) After We Collided (2020) After We Fell (2021) After Ever Happy (2022) After Everything (2023) After (2019) After Movies In Order Sequence Fortunately, the After films need to be seen in the release sequence; there is no strange chronology to deal with here. After (2019) The first After movie came out on April 12, 2019, and was also the narrative's starting point. Susan McMartin, Tamara Chestna, Tom Betterton, and Jenny Gauge wrote the script for this edition; Jenny Gauge also oversaw the project. Here, we meet our protagonist, Tessa, Josephine Langford, a young woman headed off to college in Washington (a standard setting following the popularity of Twilight). She meets Hardin (Hero Fiennes Tiffin), a friend of her flatmate and a typical lousy boy; the couple starts their turbulent relationship once she gets there. Though they are both from England and have tattoos, Hardin himself doesn't resemble Harry Styles personally. That's about how far the links run. After We Collided (2020) October 23, 2020, saw the release of the second film in the series and the second to be produced following our crash. Here, we keep tracking the dramatic highs and lows of Tessa and Hardin's relationship as the two work through the momentous revelation afterfirst the film's conclusion. Working with Mario Celaya, Anna Todd, and Roger Kumble (Cruel Intentions), the script contains contributions this time from the filmmaker. The franchise begins to veer towards its roots here, with advantages and drawbacks. On the one hand, it's fantastic entertainment; everything is hammed up to 1000, whether your viewing is for the romance or to chuckle. On the other side, you must be somewhat tolerant of repetition since the whole story revolves around Tessa and Hardin's happiness for a day; his anger results in their fighting, their time apart, and their reconciliation. After We Fell (2021) After We Fell, set for October 22, 2021, comes next. Sharon Soboil writes this screenplay; director Castille Landon also arrives on location. This picks up exactly where After We Collided left off ends, and Tessa's father re-enters her life. He is homeless and invited to stay with them for a bit. Tessa is also moving to Seattle in response to a job offer, which distances the pair literally and symbolically. Much of the action focuses on Hardin finally realizing how badly he abuses Tessa and working to control his rage problems. Hardin's handling of Tessa is one of the primary causes of the series' controversy. In an interview with Refinery29, author Todd says, "I'm not creating novels to be a good example… That is simply the narrative I am recounting. At last, as is customary at this time, the film closes with a startling revelation of Hardin's family. After Ever Happy (2022) September 7, 2022, saw the release of the penultimate series part, After Ever Happy. With Sharon Soboil and Castille Landon returning, this represents the first time a director and screenwriter returned for a second round. Starting from the major reveal in After We Fell, we witness the fall-out and inevitable breakups that result. About which, Hero Fiennes Tiffin tells Entertainment Weekly, Tessa moves to New York City, and Hardin ultimately gets sober and visits Alcoholics Anonymous. Hero Fiennes Tiffin says this leads Tessa to "get closer to being that best version of herself." As they always do, when they get back together, they find that some of their differences have faded, and they begin to reconnect. Tessa sadly finds something startling that causes her to call off their relationship entirely. After Everything (2023) After Everything marks the end of the entire series with a September 13, 2023, publication date, Castille Landon keeps her directorial run but also wrote the screenplay this time; strangely, this is the first film in the series not derived from one of the original books. Hardin is here resolved to get Tessa back, but she is as determined to go on from him. Hardin contacts his first love, Nathalie, to atone and attempt to get better personally. Although it's an odd decision to stray from the source material for the conclusion, the producers know their target audience and the films have always catered to fans, whether keeping things the same or altering them.

Rezumat

Deși Tessa și Hardin s-au separat anterior, Hardin este hotărât să-și repare și să le reaprindă dragostea. Când călătorește la Lisabona pentru a o vedea pe Tessa, fostul său interes amoros pe nume Natalie reintră în viața lui. Pe măsură ce continuă să o urmărească pe Tessa, apar probleme atunci când dușmanii din trecutul său stau între ei și presiunile companiei sale de editură necesită finalizarea următorului său roman. Hardin trebuie să depășească toate acestea, pentru a reconecta în cele din urmă cu Tessa.[1] Hardin are inima frântă că Tessa vrea să meargă mai departe și să nu fie cu el, în timp ce Hardin vrea să fie cu ea. Tessa îi spune lui Hardin să meargă mai departe. Apoi, Hardin merge la Lisabona, Portugalia, pentru a-i cere lui Natalie să-l ierte pentru tot ce i-a făcut înainte. Când se întâlnește față în față cu Natalie, ea vrea ca el să plece. Mai târziu, Hardin îl întâlnește pe Sebastian (prietenul lui Natalie), care îl urăște pe Hardin. Dacă Hardin și Tessa vor fi împreună după aceste situații rămâne un mister
