Timestalker is a 2024 British historical science fiction romantic comedy film written, directed by, and starring Alice Lowe.[1]

Synopsis

Agnes falls in love with the wrong man and then gets reincarnated and falls in love with him over and over again, travelling through 1680s western Scotland, rural England in the 1790s, and 1980s Manhattan, and then an apocalyptic 22nd century.[2]

Production

In February 2021, it was announced that Lowe's new project was called Timestalker and was a romantic comedy about one woman's unrequited love across centuries from 1680s western Scotland through to an apocalyptic 22nd century. It had Sam Riley, Jacob Anderson and Natasia Demetriou attached to it with Lowe also acting. Vaughan Sivell was announced as producing for Western Edge Pictures and HanWay handling international sales.[3][4][5] In October 2022, it was announced that filming had commenced with Nick Frost, Tanya Reynolds, Aneurin Barnard, Kate Dickie, Dan Skinner, and Mike Wozniak in the cast and Riley and Demetriou no longer involved. Popcorn Group were on board as co-producers with funding coming from the BFI, Head Gear Films, and Ffilm Cymru Wales with funding from the National Lottery and the Welsh Government via Creative Wales.[6][7][8] HanWay Films released first look images of Frost and Lowe in historical costume in February 2023.[9]
