Based on a novel by Audrey Niffenegger, The Time Traveler’s Wife stars rose as a sculptor married to a librarian who has a sci-fi genetic disorder.

His illness causes him to leap randomly backwards and forwards in time, at instances he can neither predict nor control.

The novel was previously adapted into a 2009 film that starred Rachel McAdams and Eric Bana in the two lead roles.s
