WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Wallace (Radcliffe), a medical school dropout, has been hurt by too many failed relationships so decides to put his love life firmly on hold. Of course, it’s only then that he meets Chantry (Kazan), an animator who lives with her long-term boyfriend Ben (Spall), and forms an instant connection with her. As their friendship grows, Wallace and Chantry find themselves considering what they’re best as: lovers or best friends…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

A romantic-comedy that relies on clever wit and the winning chemistry of its two leads, What If also shows a more romantic side to leading man Daniel Radcliffe that may not have been as apparent to his legion of Harry Potter fans before.
