From the producers of “Walk the Line” and “Ground Hog Day“, “Waiting For Forever” stars Rachel Bilson, who is well known for her role as Summer Roberts in the prime-time drama series the “O.C.”. Alongside Rachel is co-star Tom Sturridge, a British actor who has starred in such films as “Vanity Fair“, “Being Julia” and “Like Minds“. The film features an ensemble cast including Matt Davis, Scott Mechlowicz, Nikki Blonsky, Richard Jenkins, Blythe Danner, and Nelson Franklin.
“At a time when so many films are bigger, louder and faster, Waiting for Forever arrives as a refreshing alternative: warm, funny, humane,” says Craig Detweiler, director of the Center for Entertainment, Media and Culture.
“Waiting for Forever” is a unique love story about friendship and a view of the world from different perspectives, “Waiting for Forever” explores the connections people make in the face of life’s changes. Best friends while they were growing up, Emma (Rachel Bilson) and Will (Tom Sturridge) lost touch a long time ago—as far as she knows. To Will, Emma never stopped being the most important person in his life. Believing them to be forever linked, he goes wherever she goes. Will doesn’t have a home, a car, or a “real” job. He survives on his talent as a juggler and entertainer—talents honed through years of showing off for Emma. When her father gets sick, Emma returns to their hometown, trying to leave behind her complicated love life and failing career as a TV actress. As its characters face love, death and their own preconceptions, “Waiting for Forever” questions the realities of life.
