There will be more from #Hessa! Hero Fiennes Tiffin has said that the fourth After film, titled After Ever Happy, will not be his and Josephine Langford’s last as Hardin and Tessa.
“I’m so excited to finally share some massive news with you all,” the actor said in a video posted on the After films social media sites in August 2022. “We just finished filming the fifth After film. I can’t say much about it yet, but I can say that it will be named After Everything, and I can’t wait for you all to see it.”
Fans initially assumed that After Ever Happy would be the actors’ final appearance in the After universe. However, it appears that they are preparing for one more ride.
Aside from one more After the original stars’ films, the franchise’s universe is growing through prequels and sequels that will follow Hardin and Tessa’s children, Emery and Auden, as well as their cousin, Addy. It’s unknown whether Hero or Josephine will repeat their roles in any of those flicks for the time being.
Hero, reminisced on the “ridiculous” progression he’s been able to have in his career as a result of playing Hardin.
“I’ve never done any training. I’ve always been so lucky to have learned through firsthand experience on set and sometimes I work with people who are trained and I feel like I’m punching above my weight a little bit. I feel like there are things they don’t know that I know,” the actor admitted to J-14 in June 2022, when promoting his First Love movie.
“The amount of barriers that were knocked down after doing After, just with my own confidence in my ability. Ultimately, I feel like you can play sports and score goals and you have numbers to tell you how good [you are]. But with acting you, it’s not like that. You don’t have a specific numerical validation of your ability. So, I think it’s been really important for me to do the After movies, feel the weight on your shoulders of being the lead in a film and then, you know, go on to work with other great actors. … I’m quite literally showing you that I can’t put into words how much it’s done for me because you know, it’s done so much.”
The film will be released in theatres on September 13, 2023.
