A24 is at it again, and this time they’re taking us on a journey beyond life itself. BGN’s Chalice Williams sat down with the incredible cast of the new metaphysical romance, Eternity, getting all the details on the film’s powerful story of love, loss, and the choices we make in the afterlife. In a series of intimate conversations, stars Miles Teller, Elizabeth Olsen, and Callum Turner offered revealing insights into their characters and the dreamlike universe that frames their story.
The premise for Eternity is absolutely captivating. Imagine this: you arrive in the afterlife and have just one week to decide where you’ll spend forever. For Joan, played by the brilliant Elizabeth Olsen, that decision is anything but simple. She finds herself caught between two loves: Larry (Miles Teller), the devoted partner she built a lifetime with, and Luke (Callum Turner), her first love who passed away young and has been waiting decades for her. The film uses this fantastic setup to explore memory, longing, and the truths that follow us even after we’re gone.
Olsen opened up about navigating Joan’s “emotional labyrinth,” where grief and nostalgia create a beautiful, complicated tapestry. Teller spoke on the challenge of playing a man whose love is powerful enough to span lifetimes, while Turner shared how embodying a soul frozen in time as a young man gave him a new perspective on connection.
The cast’s chemistry is undeniable, both on-screen and in the interview, highlighting how the film masterfully balances tender romance with deep, existential questions.
These interviews offer a heartfelt preview of one of A24’s most thought-provoking releases—an unforgettable exploration of the ties that bind us, in this life and the next. Mark your calendars: Eternity premieres in theaters nationwide on November 26th.
