After Ever Happy

After Ever Happy (released in some countries as After Ever After and After Forever) is a 2022 American romantic drama film directed by Castille Landon from a screenplay by Sharon Soboil, based on the 2015 novel of the same name by Anna Todd.

The film stars Josephine Langford and Hero Fiennes Tiffin reprising their roles as Tessa Young and Hardin Scott, respectively.

That evening, Tessa finds a drunk Hardin breaking into Trish's house and setting the place on fire.

She tells him they need time apart to heal from their recent family traumas and she's decided to leave Vance Publishing to move to NYC with Landon.

Over the next couple of days, they spend time together, slowly reconnecting, during which Landon finally starts a romantic relationship with Nora, much to Hardin and Tessa's happiness.

The next morning after Hardin leaves, Tessa finds a book in his bag, titled "After", documenting his life since their first kiss.

When he returns, she confronts him about it, not wanting her life to be published for everyone to read about, but Hardin tells her there's already a bidding war for the book.

Developed at the same time as After We Fell, the films were announced to be directed by Castille Landon with Sharon Soboil serving as a screenwriter.

Josephine Langford and Hero Fiennes-Tiffin were confirmed to reprise their roles as Tessa Young and Hardin Scott, respectively.

In December 2021, Louise Lombard, Kiana Madeira, Chance Perdomo, Rob Estes, and Carter Jenkins were confirmed to have reprised their roles from previous movies.
