A sweet romantic comedy, written by and starring Kathie Lee Gifford, Then Came You tells the tale of a lonely widow who plans a trip around the world.
Suddenly widowed after a 32-year marriage, Annabelle Wilson (Kathie Lee Gifford) is alone. While reading her husband’s will, she discovers his wish to be cremated and have his ashes put in ‘a box of chocolates’ because Forrest Gump was his favourite movie. Deciding to fulfill her own dream Annabelle makes a list of their favourite 20 movies, sells her house and hardware store, leaving her life in Nantucket behind.
She travels to Scotland first, in honour of Braveheart, where she is stunned and seduced by the sheer beauty of the Scottish countryside. In Loch Lomond she checks into an inn owned and operated by a crusty, weathered Scotsman, Lord Howard (Craig Ferguson). Polar opposites, Annabelle and Howard develop an unlikely friendship, changing their lives forever. But their second chance at love is complicated, as Howard is scheduled to be married at the end of the week.
A natural chemistry simmers between the two stars in Then Came You, an amusing story of loneliness and new beginnings.
