Check out the trailer for Love, Rosie, an upcoming romantic-drama starring Lily Collins and Sam Claflin. The two leads star as best friends who have been in each other’s lives since they were 5, never quite realising their feelings for one another. Now, as young adults, she has had an unwanted pregnancy and he is getting married. Will they find a way back to each other? We’ve seen this type of story told many times before, but this does look genuinely romantic. Collins and Claflin are certainly attractive and likeable enough to ensure the target audience flocks to this and the source material, Cecelia Ahern’s novel Where Rainbows End, has an ardent following.
Christian Cooke, Tamsin Egerton, Art Parkinson and Suki Waterhouse also star.
Official synopsis for Love, Rosie:
Rosie and Alex have been best friends since they were 5, so they couldn’t possibly be right for one another…or could they? When it comes to love, life and making the right choices, these two are their own worst enemies. One awkward turn at 18, one missed opportunity…and life sends them hurling in different directions. But somehow, across time, space and different continents, the tie that binds them cannot be undone — despite unwanted pregnancies, disastrous love affairs, marriage, infidelity and divorce. Will they find their way back to one another, or will it be too late?
Based on Cecelia Ahern’s bestselling novel “Where Rainbows End”, LOVE, ROSIE is a sassy, heart-warming, and utterly modern comedy-of-errors tale posing the ultimate question: Do we really only get one shot at true love?
