A love that knows no limits

Henry DeTamble is a librarian in Chicago who suffers from a rare genetic anomaly that makes him travel through time without control. His disappearances follow no schedule: they drag him to moments from his past and his future, and he can't choose when or where he lands. Clare Abshire, an artist, has long been convinced that her destiny is tied to Henry's. She knows he will eventually return, but she never knows when or for how long. Henry tries to build a relationship with her while trying to live a normal life with a clock he can't control. Directed by Robert Schwentke, the film stars Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams in the lead roles.

Trivia about The Time Traveler's Wife

The release, originally planned for fall 2008, was delayed without an official explanation from the studio. McAdams later explained that they had to wait for the right time of year and for Bana's hair.
Niffenegger was writing the novel while imagining what the film would be like, and said she feared that her mental version would be changed or erased by what others did with it.
The rights to the novel were acquired before the book was published, through the production company of Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt together with New Line Cinema.
Steven Spielberg and David Fincher briefly expressed interest in the project, and Gus Van Sant even negotiated to direct before Robert Schwentke was hired in November 2006.
