The blonde beauty – best known for Top Gun, Sleepless In Seattle and You’ve Got Mail – stars alongside X Files veteran Duchovny.
The poster for What Happens Later debuted Tuesday.
Ryan looked incredibly youthful – 41 rather than 61.
The mother of two is seen in a black coat, white dress and black thick military boots. Her white blonde hair is worn in soft waves, while her pink-tinted makeup is subtle and flattering.
Dennis Quaid’s ex is seen on a black couch as snow falls on her.
Standing next to her is David in a black suit and tie with quirky socks as he turns to look at Ryan.
The poster also points out that Ryan directed the movie.
“They missed their connection,” the poster reads. The film is about former lovers who explore the possibility of rekindling their relationship.
The film is based on the play Shooting Star by playwright Steven Dietz, who co-wrote the script with Meg and novelist Kirk Lynn.
This will be Ryan’s first project as a director since making Ithaca in 2015.

The actress dominated the silver screen in the late 20th century, headlining a slew of beloved romantic comedies.
She also starred in hit dramas including City of Angels, When A Man Loves A Woman and Courage Under Fire.
However, after a highly publicized fling with Proof Of Life co-star Russell Crowe that led to the end of her 10-year marriage to Dennis Quaid and a subsequent string of box office disappointments, her career slowed.
Ryan has kept a low profile in recent years, but continued to act in TV shows and independent films.
One of the highlights on her resume is appearances on Web Therapy with Friends friend Lisa Kurdrow.
Ryan’s last major red carpet appearance was in 2021.
She was featured in a rare public appearance at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures gala in Los Angeles.
