Husband Met in the Afterlife vs. First Love… Apple TV+ Releases “Otherworldly Romance”

Apple Original Films 〈Otherworldly Romance〉, which captivated global audiences with its fresh world and delicate emotional storytelling, has been released in full on Apple TV+ at once. The daring premise of a “reincarnation-choice romance” set in the afterlife is sparking curiosity among viewers in Korea.

First love waited 67 years vs. a husband you spent your whole life with… Who will you choose?

〈Otherworldly Romance〉 follows “Joan” (Elizabeth Olsen), who arrives in the afterlife, as she is forced to choose just one person to spend eternity with—between her husband “Larry” (Miles Teller), whom she shared her lifetime with, and her first love “Luke” (Callum Turner), who left the world in the early days of their marriage.

Produced by Hollywood’s reliable powerhouse A24, this work begins as, after death, a couple—reunited at the “afterlife transfer station” in their younger selves—encounters the first love who has waited for Joan for 67 years. Caught between a familiar, comfortable love and the aching first love that never had its chance, Joan’s struggle raises a universal question about love and choice, drawing viewers in with deep empathy.

Elizabeth Olsen, Miles Teller, Callum Turner… Overwhelming Visuals and Stellar Performances

The dazzling lineup of actors and their chemistry are another can't-miss point of viewing. Elizabeth Olsen—well known in Korea for “Wanda”—takes on the role of Joan, wrestling with her feelings in the face of love, delivering nuanced performances. Joining her, Miles Teller from 〈Top Gun: Maverick〉 plays Larry, a steady husband, while Callum Turner from the 〈Fantastic Beasts〉 series transforms into Luke, a devoted first love—forming the perfect ensemble of acting.

A cinematic look that adds warmth to an original premise has remade the afterlife not just as a setting, but as a compelling stage where you can look back on your life and confirm true love.
