Annie Murphy & Cooper Raiff Flip the Script on Age-Gap Romance

A new romcom called "All That She Wants" just dropped, pulling its title straight from that 1992 Ace of Base jam. If you actually remember that song from the radio, yeah, your doctor's probably got questions for you.

Annie Murphy plays Emma, a professional dancer in her early thirties who finds herself tangled up with a younger guy — the whole setup flipping the tired old script where dudes chase women half their age. Cooper Raiff's in there too, and word is they've got real chemistry, the kind that makes the age gap feel like a detail instead of the whole point.

The film's getting praise for being smart about the generational differences without turning it into a punchline. It's less "look how scandalous" and more "look how these two people actually work." That's harder to pull off than it sounds — most movies with a concept like this lean too hard on the gimmick.

Look, if you're tired of the same relationship dynamics playing out on screen, this one at least swings different. Whether it lands depends on if you can sit through a story where a woman's just... living her life and happening to want someone younger.
