How to watch The Time Traveler's Wife TV series

A TV adaptation of Audrey Niffenegger’s novel, The Time Traveler’s Wife, is available to stream in Australia on demand. It follows a couple as they navigate their relationship and aspire to build a life together. But unlike most relationships complicated by distance, conflicting priorities, or lack of love, passion and loyalty, the central characters in the story are afflicted by something else that’s beyond one’s control – time travel.

This is the same story that was adapted for film in 2009, which starred Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams. This time, Theo James (Sanditon) and Rose Leslie (Game of Thrones) have been cast for the lead roles of Henry and Clare, respectively. Find out how to watch episodes of the sci-fi romance series in this guide.

What’s in this Guide?

In The Time Traveler’s Wife, Clare and Henry share an indomitable love. However, their love story is complicated by time travel. In the novel where the TV series is based on, Henry has a paranormal genetic disorder that leads to time traveling. His wife, Clare, has to deal with having a time traveler-absent husband. Their attempt to build a perfectly happy marriage is put into test by Henry’s sporadic and frustratingly unpredictable ‘trips’.

The show was given the green light in 2018 after HBO gave the production a straight-to-series order. By February 2021, Theo James and Rose Leslie have been announced to play the lead characters and filming began a few months after in May. The novel’s author Audrey Niffenegger is the show’s executive producer alongside Sue Vertue, Brian Minchin, David Nutter and Steven Moffat.

With the varying timelines involved in its narrative, the TV adaptation of The Time Traveler’s Wife will further delve into the love story of the central characters, examining the aspects of their relationship by covering more details and exploring its depth as they struggle with the repercussions of Henry’s time traveling dilemma.

Combining science fiction and romance, it’s one of the most tragic love stories in contemporary fiction. However, despite Clare and Henry’s time scrambled relationship, what Audrey Niffenegger has created here is a tale of an extraordinary love.

The new series consisting of six episodes launched on 16th May 2022 in Australia. Subsequent episodes streamed weekly. After six episodes, the TV show concluded on 20th June 2022.

Only one season has been announced for the upcoming TV series, however, given the nature of its story, it’s also likely that it will have future seasons or instalments.

For the fans of the novel who have always loved Audrey Niffenegger’s extraordinary and magical love story, this captivating romance will finally be on TV. The plot is about a time traveler navigating life and love despite experiencing first-hand a phenomenon that’s not officially known in human history.

In the US, the series premiered on HBO and HBO Max. Australia, on the other hand, has Foxtel and BINGE to air HBO shows.
