Langford recently made headlines when she was noticeably missing from the final film, After Everything, which was released in September 2023. Her character appeared largely in flashback format using existing footage of Langford.
Even before fans started to question Langford’s absence, she noted that she wasn’t sure about her plans to return.
“I would want to come back if it was important, and it made sense,” she explained to StyleCaster in September 2021. “I’m not a fan of overstaying your welcome. It can sometimes dampen a good thing if you’re creating something and it’s canon, and it doesn’t have a reason. I would be very, very, very happy to come back under the right circumstance and if it made sense.”

How Has Josephine Langford’s Time on After Affected Her Approach for Future Projects?
“I’ve learned a lot about what I should do and shouldn’t do. I’ve never been a lead in a movie before this,” the actress told StyleCaster in September 2021. “There are so many little things that no one teaches you, and no one can teach on how sets work and all this intricate, behind-the-scenes stuff. Some of those lessons are invaluable. I’ve also grown with these movies. It’s taught me a lot, and I’m super grateful for that.”
