About the Movie
About Fate is a delightful 2022 romantic comedy directed by Maryus Vaysberg that follows Margot Hayes (Emma Roberts) and Griffin Reed (Thomas Mann), two strangers who believe in love but never seem able to find it. As fate would have it, both experience disastrous relationship failures right before New Year's Eve. Griffin plans to propose to his social-media influencer girlfriend Clementine (Madelaine Petsch), while Margot expects an engagement from her self-absorbed boyfriend Kip (Lewis Tan). Instead, both of their evenings collapse into utter chaos.
Through a classic holiday mix-up of identical suburban Boston addresses and mistaken identity, a tipsy Griffin accidentally unlocks Margot's front door and falls asleep in her bed. Rather than calling the police, a desperate Margot convinces Griffin to pose as Kip at her sister Carrie's (Britt Robertson) lavish wedding that afternoon. As the pair navigate a whirlwind day of festive mishaps, car trouble, and family interrogation, their fake romance slowly blossoms into an authentic, undeniable bond.
