The A24 film co-starring Callum Turner and Miles Teller arrives in theaters this November
In the A24 film Eternity, Joan (Elizabeth Olsen) is a woman of her word. When she married her husband Larry (Miles Teller), the phrase “till death do us part” meant something to her. It meant something to her first husband Luke (Callum Turner), too, but his life being claimed while he was away at war assured it was a short-lived agreement. What Joan didn’t anticipate, however, was that her promise to both men would extend to the afterlife.
In the latest Eternity trailer, Larry arrives at the junction, essentially a train platform where souls can decide where they want to spend the rest of eternity. They have one week to make their decision. Larry is thrilled when he reunites with Joan, knowing they can make the choice together. But Luke has been waiting decades to do the same. “I never dreamt you this clearly,” Joan tells Luke, who says she’s exactly how he’s dreamt her during all of their years apart.
“I’ve just been reunited with both of my dead husbands and I have to pick where to spend eternity,” Joan says, overwhelmed and torn. From there, the afterlife romance olympics begin. Luke has all of the slick one-liners and the advantage of 67 years of practice. Larry, on the other hand, has high hopes and his fingers crossed. The choice is up to Joan, but it won’t be an easy one.

“It’s real fun,” Olsen told Extra about the film earlier this year. “It’s a callback to Billy Wilder films. I think it’s gonna be a special romantic comedy that we’re all really proud of. I’m excited for it to come out this year.”
Eternity is scheduled for theatrical release in November. The film written by Pat Cunnane and director David Freyne also stars Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Olga Merediz, and John Early.
