The Rebound is a 2009 American romantic comedy film written and directed by Bart Freundlich, starring Catherine Zeta-Jones, Justin Bartha, Kelly Gould, Marcel Simoneau with Art Garfunkel and Joanna Gleason.

It was originally scheduled to be released in the United States on 25 December 2010, but was cancelled due to the film's distributor shutting down.

Sandy rents an apartment above a coffee house and befriends one of the baristas, Aram Finklestein (Justin Bartha).

As they leave the doctor, a fight breaks out between Aram and Sandy, with the latter confirming that she thinks it's ludicrous that the two of them, with an age difference of 15 years, would ever be happy together.

The film ends as the two hold hands underneath the table whilst their children start to bond implying that they went on to rekindle their relationship.
