There really isn't a lot of new movies waiting for us this summer and those that are arriving will have a really strange way of coming to the audience - few days in the cinema and then straight to streaming, but LAST LETTER FROM YOUR LOVER will have an even stranger way - it will first hit Netflix next Friday, July 23rd and will then circle British cinemas in August. Go figure. We will certainly watch it as it comes from our favourite Studiocanal and stars our boo Callum Me Some Turner! The cast also includes Joe Alwyn, Nabhaan Rizwan, Felicity Jones and Shailene Woodley. Ben Cross, who died last year, gives his last role ever in this one.

Together with Felicity Jones, Joe Alwyn and Shailene Woodley he will lead THE LAST LETTER FROM YOUR LOVER for our favourite producer Studiocanal!

I didn't get to show you this one yesterday, but it is such a delight that it is never to late for it: new, extended trailer has been released for this year's biggest romantic movie ME BEFORE YOU, the big screen adaptation of Jojo Moyes' international bestselling book which will romance its way into theatres June 3rd starring Sam Claflin and Emilia Clarke.
LIVE BOLDLY Often times you find love where you least expect it. Sometimes it
takes you where you never expected to go... Louisa "Lou" Clark (Emilia Clarke)
lives in a quaint town in the English countryside. With no clear
direction in her life, the quirky and creative 26 year old goes from one
job to the next in order to help her tight knit family make ends meet.
Her normally cheery outlook is put to the test, however, when she faces
her newest career challenge.
Taking a job at the local "castle," she becomes caregiver and companion
to Will Traynor (Sam Claflin), a wealthy young banker who became
wheelchair bound in an accident two years prior, and whose whole world
changed dramatically in the blink of an eye. No longer the adventurous
soul he once was, the now cynical Will has all but given up. That is
until Lou determines to show him that life is worth living. Embarking
together on a series of adventures, both Lou and Will get more than they
bargained for, and find their lives and hearts changing in ways neither
one could have imagined.
