Yes, I love a good cry first thing in the morning. It’s a way to set off the day.
The Last Letter From Your Lover is one of our favorite books from Jojo Moyes and we’ve definitely been looking forward to the adaptation.
If you aren’t familiar with the story here’s the synopsis of the movie –
A pair of interwoven stories set in the present and past, THE LAST LETTER FROM YOUR LOVER follows Ellie Haworth (Felicity Jones), an ambitious journalist who discovers a trove of secret love letters from 1965 and becomes determined to solve the mystery of the forbidden affair at their center. As she uncovers the story behind Jennifer Stirling (Shailene Woodley), the wife of a wealthy industrialist, and Anthony O’Hare (Callum Turner) the financial journalist assigned to cover him, a love story of Ellie’s own begins to unfold with the assistance of an earnest and endearing archivist (Nabhaan Rizwan) who helps her track down more letters. Based on the novel by JoJo Moyes and directed by Augustine Frizzell.
Sounds amazing, right? We think so too! Netflix released the trailer for the movie today and our hearts were happy. Sure, we were crying, but we were happy because we know we’re one step closer to the movie.
The adaptation stars Felicity Jones, Callum Turner, Joe Alwyn, Nabhaan Rizwan and Shailene Woodley. It is produced by Simone Urdl, Jennifer Weiss, Graham Broadbent, Pete Czernin and based on the novel from Jojo Moyes.
THE LAST LETTER FROM YOUR LOVER will release on Netflix on July 23, 2021.
