Scott Eastwood has gracefully joined the esteemed ensemble of Paramount Pictures' highly anticipated feature film adaptation of Colleen Hoover's captivating novel, "Regretting You." Set to enchant audiences in theaters on October 24th, this emotional journey stars Eastwood alongside a stellar line-up that includes the previously revealed talents of Allison Williams, Dave Franco, Mckenna Grace, Mason Thames, and Willa Fitzgerald. Under the directorial prowess of Josh Boone, renowned for his work on "The Fault in Our Stars," the film is based on a script penned by Boone himself, drawing inspiration from an earlier draft crafted by Susan McMartin ("After").
"Regretting You" delves into the heart-wrenching aftermath of a fatal car accident that shatteringly claims the lives of two beloved family members, sparking a poignant exploration of long-buried secrets and lingering regrets. Rooted in Hoover's bestselling 2019 novel, this project emerges from Constantin Film, with an impressive producing team comprising Robert Kulzer, Brunson Green, Anna Todd, and Flavia Viotti. Hoover, Williams, Franco, and Grace take on executive producer roles, adding their unique visions to the film's creative landscape.
Eastwood's impressive filmography spans an array of notable features, including "I Want You Back," "1992," "Fast X," "Wrath of Man," and "Pacific Rim: Uprising." He is poised to captivate once more in upcoming films such as "Lucky Strike" and "Stolen Girl." Notably, Hoover's first novel to make its cinematic debut, "It Ends With Us," soared past $350 million at the global box office when it premiered in August through Sony Pictures, directed by Justin Baldoni and starring Blake Lively and Brandon Sklenar.
On the horizon, Amazon MGM Studios prepares to unveil its film adaptation of Hoover's novel "Verity," helmed by director Michael Showalter and starring Anne Hathaway.
Represented by UTA, LBI Entertainment, Viewpoint, and Goodman Genow, Eastwood's casting in "Regretting You" was first revealed by Deadline, promising yet another layer of depth and emotion to this already compelling cinematic endeavor.
