New Year's Eve is the 2011 film that follows interconnected characters during New Year's Eve in New York City.
Directed by Garry Marshall, the film is an ensemble romantic comedy built from several storylines unfolding during the final day and night of the year. Its cast includes Halle Berry, Jessica Biel, Jon Bon Jovi, Abigail Breslin, Robert De Niro, Ashton Kutcher, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Katherine Heigl.
The film uses New York's countdown atmosphere as a shared setting rather than concentrating on one central protagonist. Several characters face relationship decisions, family concerns, work pressures, or personal resolutions before midnight. The title is therefore both the film's name and the occasion around which its stories are organized.
New Year's Eve followed Marshall's earlier ensemble holiday film Valentine's Day, released in 2010. Despite the similar structure and director, the films have different settings, casts, and holidays. The specific film title is New Year's Eve, with the apostrophe and capitalization used in its English release title.
