  "textContent": "\n\nOkay, if there's one movie that's going to start conversations and stick with you long after the credits roll, it's The Drama. The A24 movie premiered on April 3rd, and it follows Emma (Zendaya) and Charlie (Robert Pattinson), who are about to get married in Boston. But right before they can tie the knot, Emma reveals this huge secret she's never told anyone — and it's so crazy, suddenly Charlie is left wondering whether he wants to go through with the wedding at all.\n\n* * *\n\n## Keep reading to see the full ending of _The Drama_ , starring Zendaya and Robert Pattinson.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nNow Emma's big secret was circulating Reddit for a little while before the movie premiered, but now that it's out, the internet has a _lot_ of thoughts about Emma's secret. _Consider this your only spoiler warning!!_\n\nSo it turns out that when Emma was in high school, she brought a weapon to school and had plans to _use it_ , but ended up not going through with it at the last second. And then for the rest of high school, she got super involved with gun control. Well, when she reveals this secret (during a wine-induced game of \"What's the Worst Thing You've Ever Done?\"), her friends end up completely freaking out.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nCharlie (like I mentioned earlier) ends up questioning whether this changes his view of Emma, and whether she's still the person he fell in love with. Meanwhile, Emma's freaking out about the fact that she freaked Charlie out, and regrets saying anything at all. She just wants to pretend to go back to the beginning, and tries to reintroduce herself to him and just get a fresh start. Unfortunately this doesn't quite work for him.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nFlash forward to the day of their wedding, and all their friends — and a surprising percentage of their coworkers — end up at their wedding. Emma is terrified that everyone is going to find out about her secret, and overall, their big day is more tense than it should be.\n\nAs nerves reach an all-time high and people start drinking, everything culminates at the wedding reception.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nIn addition to Charlie's mortifying wedding speech, where he talks about their incredible sex and her repulsive laugh, he also reveals that he cheated on Emma with his coworker Mischa...and ends up getting punched in the face. Emma ditches the reception and Charlie ends up with crazy bruises and a bloody nose, running around his apartment trying to find his new wife.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nEarlier in the movie, there was a brief moment where the couple talked about meeting up at a diner after their wedding, and after the wedding and the fight, they do actually end up finding each other at the diner as their messy, bloody selves.\n\nCharlie feels awful about cheating on Emma, and sitting at the diner, Emma decides to reintroduce that idea from earlier in the movie, introducing herself and seemingly offering Charlie a fresh start. It appears they might give their relationship a second try, even if it's on rocky ground.\n\n**All in all, I think this movie is going to start a lot of conversations, and I'm curious what you think about it once you've seen it. Make sure you let us know your hottest take on _The Drama_ on Facebook.**",
