If you love romance, the news that Harlequin has joined forces with production and distribution company Centinel Media to expand the Harlequin universe through a slate of films and series feels like a dream come true. Sure, Hallmark exists, but when it comes to guaranteed happily ever after, that’s often our only stop. And if we’re being honest, more romance is always better.
Content is expected to start being released in 2025, which feels far away, but it actually isn’t. There are no broadcasters or specific dates set yet, but once we have the information, we will let you know!
