However, when she meets charismatic philanthropist Ellis Jones (Huisman), her passion for life and romance is reignited – but a fateful meeting causes Adaline to make a life-changing decision…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

The Age of Adaline is the epic story of a woman’s strange existence and her magical but all too tragic circumstances regarding her prolonged life on Earth.
