Langford recently made headlines when she was noticeably missing from the final film, After Everything, which was released in September 2023. Her character appeared largely in flashback format using existing footage of Langford.
Even before fans started to question Langford’s absence, she noted that she wasn’t sure about her plans to return.
“I would want to come back if it was important, and it made sense,” she explained to StyleCaster in September 2021. “I’m not a fan of overstaying your welcome. It can sometimes dampen a good thing if you’re creating something and it’s canon, and it doesn’t have a reason. I would be very, very, very happy to come back under the right circumstance and if it made sense.”
