Watch the trailer for Meg Ryan's first rom-com since 2009, 'What Happens Later.' She directs and stars in the film alongside David Duchovny.
Meg Ryan made a rare public appearance in New York this week to support her longtime friend Michael J. Fox and his new Apple TV+ documentary, “Still.”“What Happens Later” is based on the play “Shooting Star” by Steven Dietz, who co-wrote the screenplay with Ryan and Kirk Lynn. And the quick, witty exchanges feel straight off the theater stage and borrow from the dialogue-heavy rom-coms of the past.
“It has a relationship to movies from the ’40s, like ‘Bringing Up Baby,’ in terms of the banter and the rhythm of things and a lot of that era of filmmaking,” Ryan said in the interview obtained by Entertainment Weekly, nodding to her inspiration and former collaborator, Nora Ephron, the accomplished playwright and filmmaker who directed and co-wrote Ryan’s classic 1993 rom-com “Sleepless In Seattle.
“Ephron used to say about rom-coms that they were really a secretly incredible delivery system to comment on the times, and we do that in this movie,” Ryan said. While the fate of their characters’ romance remains unclear, the trailer is packed with scenes of longing and connection set to the nostalgic 1989 new-wave ballad “
” by rock band the Lightning Seeds, as the pair dance together, laugh drunkenly at a bar and joy-ride down the empty terminal corridors on a cart.
