Definitely, Maybe Plot
Definitely, Maybe is a film starring Ryan Reynolds, Rachel Weisz,
Elizabeth Banks, Isla Fisher, and Abigail Breslin.
Ryan Reynolds stars as Will Hayes, a 30-something Manhattan dad in the
midst of a divorce when his 10 year-old daughter, Maya (Abigail Breslin),
starts to question him about his life before marriage. Maya wants to
know absolutely everything about how her parents met and fell in love.
Will's story begins in 1992, as a young, starry-eyed aspiring politician
who moves to New York from Wisconsin in order to work on the Clinton
campaign. For Maya, Will relives his past as an idealistic young man
learning the ins and outs of big city politics, and recounts the history
of his romantic relationships with three very different women.
Will hopelessly attempts a "PG" version of his story for his daughter
and changes the names so Maya has to guess who is the woman her father
finally married. Is her mother Will's college sweetheart, the dependable
girl next-door Emily (Elizabeth Banks)? Is she his longtime best friend
and confidante, the apolitical April (Isla Fisher)? Or is she the
free-spirited but ambitious journalist Summer (Rachel Weisz)?
As Maya puts together the pieces of her dad's romantic puzzle, she
begins to understand that love is not so simple or easy. And as Will
tells her his tale, Maya helps him to understand that it's definitely
never too late to go back...and maybe even possible to find a happy
ending.
