If you think time travel movies as of late are a little too dark, violent and altogether complex, then Love Actually director Richard Curtis has your cure. The Pirate Radio helmer wrapped up his latest film, About Time, this past summer and is a very different kind of sci-fi film. We’ve got our first look today, of stars Rachel McAdams and Domhnall Gleeson in the rain, for the “feel-good movie” about a man who has the ability to travel back in time. Check it out above via Bleeding Cool and the official synopsis below.
The night after another unsatisfactory New Year’s party, 21-year old Tim Lake (Domhnall Gleeson) discovers he can time travel! Tim won’t be able to change history, but he can change what happens in his own life. He decides to make his world a better place by getting a girlfriend. Sadly, dating via time travel is as tricky as it sounds…
Also starring Bill Nighy, Tom Hollander, Margot Robbie, Lydia Wilson and Vanessa Kirby, About Time hits theaters on May 10th, 2013, with a UK bow in March.
Are you looking forward to the film?
