Tom Sturridge’s new movie, Waiting for Forever will be shown at the Sedona International Film Festival on Wednesday, February 24th at 6:30 p.m. and on Friday, February 26th at 4:50 p.m. at the Harkins Theater 1 in downtown Sedona, Arizona.
Waiting for Forever is a romantic comedy about a young man (Sturridge) who is content to live his life without a job as long as he can be with the love of his life, a young actress, Emma Twist (Rachel Bilson, star of TV's "The O.C." and the movie, "Jumper"). Life has gotten complicated for actress Emma Twist. Her mediocre TV show has been canceled, she's on the rocks with her boyfriend Aaron, and her father’s illness has been deemed terminal.

To make matters worse, her childhood friend, Will Donner, (Sturridge) whom she hasn't laid eyes on since they were children, has decided now is the time to profess his true feelings for her. 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 everyone unexpectedly converges in Emma's hometown, questions of family, love, and how we live our lives are explored. A unique love story about friendship and a view of the world from different perspectives, Waiting for Forever appears to be one of those refreshing little films that make a connection with people everywhere.
Written by Steve Adams, this movie was filmed and produced on a slim $5 million dollar budget by Catfish Productions and is directed by James Keach, (husband to the actress, Jane Seymour). The movie will be released nationwide in 2010.
