Netflix just dropped casting news for its next romantic comedy, and we’re already fully obsessed. Just Picture It will bring together Millie Bobby Brown and Gabriel LaBelle in a modern love story with a surprising twist that promises to steal our hearts.
The film is directed by Lee Toland Krieger. He’s known for his work on You and Dead Boys Detectives—and written by Jesse Lasky. The movie follows two college students whose lives take an unexpected turn when their phones start glitching… and begin showing them photos from 10 years in the future. But these aren’t just any photos. In them, the two are happily married with kids, living what looks like a perfect life together. The catch? They barely know each other in the present. Is it fate, a tech mishap, or something else entirely?
Just Picture It doesn’t just promise an adorable and original premise. It’s backed by a powerhouse creative team. Joe Roth and Jeff Kirschenbaum are producing for RK Films. Millie Bobby Brown produces under her PCMA Productions banner alongside her father, Robert Brown. Jake Bongiovi, Millie’s fiancé, is also serving as an executive producer, along with Isobel Roberts and David Kern.
This new project marks yet another exciting step for Millie as a producer—something she’s already proven she can handle with Enola Holmes—and it pairs her with one of Hollywood’s most promising young actors. Gabriel LaBelle received acclaim for his performance in Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans. And we can’t wait to see him in a lighter, more romantic role.
With a mix of rom-com charm and light sci-fi elements (because who doesn’t love a good “future glimpse” love story?), Just Picture It is giving us all the vibes of About Time. It’s the kind of concept that feels fresh, nostalgic, and emotionally irresistible all at once.
There’s no release date yet. But with this cast, this creative team, and a story that blends love, destiny, and a hint of tech magic, Netflix’s Just Picture It is already at the top of our must-watch list.
