After We Fell follows Tessa’s life as it begins to come unglued. Nothing is what she thought it was. Not her friends. Not her family.

Cast

Production

The film was announced to be entering pre-production on September 3, 2020. It was announced alongside the fourth and presumably final film of the series, After Ever Happy. Rumors that After We Fell would begin production in October 2020 surfaced when Production Weekly posted an overview of the film marking October as the starting production month. On September 7, 2020, Voltage Pictures COO Jonathan Deckter confirmed that there are two films planned for filming in October. This raised concerns due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which had delayed filming the United States, specifically when Deckter said, "we are taking a bit of a risk".

On September 8, 2020, the new director Castille Landon announced that she had picked out multiple filming locations, thus, confirming that production would restart in 2020. The special effects crew and other crew members landed in Bulgaria around August 13, 2020.^[5] Filming officially began on October 4, 2020, at a campus in Bulgaria.

Due to production moving to Bulgaria in light of the Coronavirus pandemic, multiple cast members had to be recast. The roles of Landon Gibson, Christian Vance, and Kimberly were recast.

On December 18, 2020, filming for After We Fell, After Ever Happy, and the After film series, officially wrapped.

Charlie Weber (Christian Vance), Candice King (Kimberly), and Selma Blair's (Carol Young) roles were recast to Stephen Moyer, Arielle Kebbel, and Mira Sorvino respectively.
