Based on the novels by Anna Todd which started out as Harry Styles fanfiction, the fifth film was a surprise as this instalment has no book to influence the plot, so the possibilities are endless. It could be the final movie of the franchise, with other films including: After (2019), After We Collided (2020), After We Fell (2021), and After Ever Happy (2021).

After Everything will start off in London, as Hardin struggles with writer’s block he decides to visit an old flame and ask for her forgiveness. There will be some new faces in the franchise with appearances from Sex Education’s Mimi Keene and Benjamin Mascolo.

Here’s everything you need to know about the cast for After Everything.

We will once again join Hardin, who is based in London, struggling with writer’s block he is still not ready to get over what happened between him and Tessa. He decides to travel to Lisbon in Portugal to visit an old flame to ask for her forgiveness.

The trailer depicts a dramatic storyline, with Hardin admitting he is “not ready to move on” from Tessa and is determined to win her back. Additional sneak peaks include a dramatic punch up between Hardin and Benjamin Mascolo’s character Sebastian and even a wedding altar - could this mean Hardin and Tessa are going to get a happy ending?

Will Tessa be in After Everything 2023?

Many fans have been asking if Josephine Langford will be reprising her role as Tessa for After Everything following the dramatic ending of After Ever Happy (2022). We can reveal that Tessa will star in the latest movie, after she was featured in the trailer.

It’s not yet known how their story will pan out and if Hardin will be able to win Tessa back, the trailer does hint at a wedding scene, so there is always a slim possibility these two could reconcile.
