Studios have turned to romance novels as a way to revive the rom-com hype, and who better to turn to than the queen of the modern rom-com, Emily Henry. Earlier this year, on Jan. 9, the first of Emily Henry’s adaptations, People We Meet on Vacation, was released onto the streaming giant, Netflix, debuting to 17.2 million viewers over its launch weekend. Much of the film’s accolades are traced to its genius casting of Tom Blyth as Alex and Emily Bader as Poppy. It’s a book that is widely enjoyed, but hardly ever anyone’s Emily Henry favorite. While the future of rom-coms was looking bleak for a while, have no fear, Emily Henry is here to save the day with her upcoming films.
