Bumalik sa hinaharap was Wells' first feature film. She had previously acted on TV and in TV movies, including the Herbie, the Love Bug series and the sitcom Wala sa katayuan.

The young star continued acting for a year following the release ofBumalik sa hinaharap, including on the TV adaptation of Fast Times at Ridgemont High. But sheleft the cameras behind because her mom was battling cancer.

"I was supposed to be in them," Wells told Yahoo! of the Bumalik sa hinaharap sequels in 2012. "And from what I was told, it was a much bigger part than it ended up being. But my mom got sick. She got cancer. And there was so much stuff going on at home, I just I needed to focus on one thing, so actually I turned them down."

Wells opened Armani Wells, a high-end men's resale clothing store, in 1991. She told Yahoo! that her plan was to open the store so she could have a "solid business base" and be able to be "choosy" when she got back into acting.

In a 2018 interview with Amblin Road, Wells explained of skipping the sequel movies and opening her store, "Life is what it is. I would not have had the son I have now if I had done it. I have had a store for 27 years that I would not [have] had. I have a business sense I would not have had because people would [have] kept running my life if I did the films. I realized I have a business mind and a strength I didn't know I had."
