Tessa and Hardin are back – here’s everything you need to know about After We Fell and how to watch it in the UK.
There’s not long to go until the third film in the popular After franchise is released in some territories – and although no release date for the UK has been released just yet, the excitement is definitely building among the fanbase.
And the extra good news is that the series won’t be ending after the third film, with a fourth entry having been filmed back to back – presumably meaning that there won’t be a huge wait between the two new films.
Titled After We Fell and After Ever Happy respectively, the third and fourth films are once again based on the books of the same name by Anna Todd, following the tumultuous teen relationship between Tessa (Josephine Langford) and Hardin (Hero Fiennes Tiffin).
The first book actually began life as fan faction penned by Todd on the website Wattpad, following a student at Washington State University who gets caught up in a relationship with One Direction star Harry Styles.

After We Fell cast
Josephine Langford and Hero Fiennes Tiffin reprise their roles as the central couple, college student Tessa and rebel Hardin; however, a number of already familiar characters are set to be replaced in After We Fell.
Chance Perdomo (The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) will play Landon, a role originated by Shane Paul McGhie.
Meanwhile, True Blood star Stephen Moyer will play Christian Vance, previously played by Charlie Weber.
Mira Sorvino will replace Selma Blair as Carol, while Arielle Kebbel will play Kimberly, a role originated by Candice King (The Vampire Diaries).
The cast also includes Carter Jenkins (Famous in Love) in the new role of Robert, while Louise Lombard and Rob Estes return as Hardin’s parents Trish and Scott.
But Dylan Sprouse will not return for either the third or the fourth installments after being introduced as new character Trevor in second film After We Collided.
After We Fell plot: What will happen?
It’s expected that the film will dig deeper into Hardin’s relationship with his parents, while Tessa also has some family drama of her own to deal with.
“Just as Tessa makes the biggest decision of her life, everything changes,” the synopsis for After We Fell reads.
“Revelations about her family, and then Hardin’s, throw everything they knew before in doubt and makes their hard-won future together more difficult to claim.”
What happened in After We Collided?
After We Collided saw Tessa develop feelings for Trevor (played by Dylan Sprouse), a co-worker at the publishing firm she interned at.
She also reckoned with everything she had sacrificed for her relationship with the rebellious Hardin, including friendships and her ex-boyfriend, Noah.
After We Fell will premiere later this year. The book is available to buy on Amazon. Wondering what is being released in cinemas this year? We have a UK 2020 film releases guide. Check out what else is on with our TV Guide.
