Rom-com fans this is for you. Do you find yourself switching between the swoon-worthy Regency-era drama Bridgerton and one of the latest rom-coms to hit the market, People We Meet on Vacation? Now the two come together as the upcoming adaptation of Emily Henry‘s first novel, Beach Read, casts Bridgerton‘s Phoebe Dynevor. She’s set to play the lead, January Andrews in the adaptation of the novel set on Lake Michigan from 20th Century Studios. No cast has been announced for her love interest, Gun Everett. The logline for Beach Read is as follows:
“A romance writer who no longer believes in love and a literary writer stuck in a rut engage in a summer-long challenge that may just upend everything they believe about happily ever afters.”
This is a developing story. Stay with Collider for the latest updates.
