When Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield presented together at the 95th Academy Awards, the internet lost their minds!! (Including yours truly, of course). But little did we know the duo actually had a rom-com in the works. (Pugh told Jimmy Fallon that the Academy also didn't know the actors were going to be working together, which makes their presentation even more fun). Deadline announced StudioCanal's We Live In Time on March 14, 2023, and during the first week of April, we got the first set pictures of Pugh and Garfield traipsing around London. I haven't stopped thinking about it since! Here's everything you need to know about the new rom-com.
See The 'We Live In Time' Poster!

The poster for Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh's We Live in Time perfectly captures the cozy, warm-down-to-your-toes feeling that can come with falling in love. And with a tagline like "Every Minute Counts" (plus the fact the movie comes from Brooklyn director John Crowley), I'll definitely be in tears by the end.
"Making this movie was such an unbelievably beautiful experience," Florence Pugh says on Instagram. "I’m thrilled and proud to say that it’s nearly here for all of you to watch soon. In the meantime, here’s some pretty breadcrumbs ;)"
Watch the We Live in Time trailer!

If the We Live in Time trailer is this beautiful, I can't imagine how incredible the movie is going to be. Love, life, family, good news, bad news — it feels so relatable because of all the situations Almut and Tobias go through. But the best part is they don't go through them alone.

A24's We Live In Time will begin a limited theatrical run on October 11, 2024. It's one of our most-anticipated fall movies! At the New York City premiere of Dune 2 (watch our TikTok coverage here!), Florence Pugh talked about how much she loved making We Live In Time. "We just had the most beautiful time making it," she tells ET. "We made a real story about real people and I got to work with the most unbelievable actor that I feel so honored to be in his presence and shout lines back to him."
"It'll be here soon," she continues. "I'm just still in love with the process of making the movie, so I hope the people appreciate watching it."

Almut (Pugh) is a witty and determined chef, while Tobias (Garfield) is trying to figure out his place in the world after his recent divorce. When their paths cross, their lives change forever. "Through snapshots of their life together -- falling for each other, building a home, becoming a family -- a difficult truth is revealed that rocks its foundation," according to the official synopsis. "As they embark on a path challenged by the limits of time, they learn to cherish each moment of the unconventional route their love story has taken in filmmaker John Crowley’s decade-spanning, deeply moving romance."
Based on Pugh and Garfield's previous roles (plus the fact that screenwriter Nick Payne is also behind The Last Letter From Your Lover AND John Crowley also directed Brooklyn), we're confident it will be emotional. I'm going to be bringing tissues into the theater, for sure.
Who else is in the We Live In Time cast?

It looks like we'll see Adam James, Aoife Hinds, Marama Corlett, and Nikhil Parmar alongside Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield. Alas, this viral tweetabout Paul Mescal joining the film appears to have been an April Fool's joke.
Thanks to Deadline, we know that John Crowley is directing We Live In Time, Nick Payne is writing the script, and Benedict Cumberbatch is serving as an executive producer. Leah Clarke, Adam Ackland, and Guy Heeley will also produce.

The cast began filming We Live In Time in April of 2023, which is PERFECT rom-com weather if you ask me! Filming for the movie mainly took place around London.
