Comedy king, Adam DeVine, delivered range in this 2018 rom-com opposite Alexandra Daddario.

Adam DeVine has often graced our screens playing the lead or the scene-stealing supporting actor in both rom-coms and comedies, proving time and again in the likes of Isn't It Romantic and the 2010s Pitch Perfect franchise that he is a warm and genuinely funny talent. In fact, the TV spin-off of Pitch Perfect, titled Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin has had a second season renewed, in which he reunites with Sarah Hyland, his one-time love interest in the mega-popular show Modern Family.

Why Does Adam DeVine Shine in 'When We First Met'? In When We First Met, Adam DeVine stars as a romantic lead opposite Alexandra Daddario. The premise of the movie is that Noah met Avery at a party and instantly fell in love with her, a love that he has been nurturing for years whilst remaining her close friend. However, the very day after they first met, Avery met Ethan , who eventually becomes her fiancé.

Adam DeVine Plays Right into 'When We First Met's Time-Travel Device The photo booth which serves as a classic time-travel apparatus isn't just a fun gimmick or an easy fix to help Noah to earn the love of Avery. Its constant rewrites of history also allow Adam DeVine to explore various archetypal characters, because the persona Noah chooses to adopt at each replay of the night they met leads to him fully becoming that character in the present day.

What Is the Message Behind 'When First We Met'? The theme of authenticity which runs through When We First Met allows DeVine to show off his dramatic chops and reveal a level of vulnerability. It is summed up best when Noah states: "I make a decision, and then I wake up three years later with the consequences." Every small action he chooses to take snowballs, and in time, they change the course of his life and that of his loved ones.
