There are some more people to meet on vacation.

The highly anticipated film adaptation of author Emily Henry’s bestselling romance novel People We Meet on Vacation has added more star power to the cast after initially casting actors Tom Blyth and Emily Bader in the lead roles of Alex and Poppy.

The novel, which was released in 2021, is Henry’s bestselling book to date in a catalogue that includes a lineup of bestsellers like Happy Place, Book Lovers, Beach Read, and her latest release Funny Story, all of which are currently in either film or TV production deals.

Both Blyth and Bader are relatively new stars, with Blyth getting his breakout film role as Coriolanus Snow in the Hunger Games prequel film The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes and Bader taking on the titular role of the new Amazon Prime series My Lady Jane.

Back in March, Henry told Variety that the People We Meet on Vacation script, which is being penned by Yulin Kuang, “has gone through a lot of different drafts.”

Kuang is also writing the screenplay for the upcoming Beach Read film adaptation, and Henry said in March that both scripts should “be ready very soon because she needs to get them off her plate.”

No release date has been announced for People We Meet on Vacation at this time.

Netflix's adaptation of Julia Quinn's romance book series Bridgerton was a cultural phenomenon at the end of 2020. Why?

This drama full of epic battles and star-crossed romance is based on the popular book series by George R.R Martin. While the novels are best-sellers in their own right, the TV show has garnered fans from all over the world, including many who wouldn't even call themselves fans of the source material. Over the course of eight seasons, the HBO series received 58 Emmy Awards, more than any other drama in history. And while viewers remain divided on the controversial conclusion, which saw the series surpass Martin's plotting to reveal an ending all its own, the show will go down as one of the most celebrated of all time.

HBO's adaptation of Liane Moriarty's best-selling novel of the same name lured some A-list talent to the small screen, with Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, Shailene Woodley, Zoe Kravitz and Laura Dern occupying the very enviable real estate owned by the five women who find themselves caught up in a murder investigation. Every bit as enthralling as the book, the first season earned eight Primetime Emmy Awards and enticed none other than Meryl Streep herself to sign on for a pivotal role in the second season, which Moriarty helped shape despite there being no source material left to mine. Though not as universally beloved as the first, season two still earned Streep and Dern Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series nominations.

3 Body Problem garnered six 2024 Emmy nominations after its debut, including a coveted Outstanding Drama Series nomination. The Netflix series—set in the U.K. and China—follows a group of scientists dealing with an extraterrestrial mystery and planetary threat. It's based on Liu Cixin's book series Remembrance of Earth's Past, which debuted in 2006 with The Three-Body Problem. Cixin followed that up with The Dark Forest in 2008 and Death's End in 2010.

British spy thriller Slow Horses first premiered on Apple TV+ in 2022, but it was the show's third season that resonated with 2024 Emmy voters, nabbing nine nominations including Outstanding Drama Series, as well as Lead Actor and Supporting Actor nominations for stars Gary Oldman and Jack Lowden, respectively. The series is based on Mick Herron's spy novel series, Slough House, with the first book Slow Horses debuting in 2010.

Palm Royale earned three 2024 Emmy nominations after its debut: Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for Kristen Wiig and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for Carol Burnett. Although based on the 2018 book Mr. & Mrs. American Pie by Juliet McDaniel, the Apple TV+ show wildly diverges from its source material. Set in the late ‘60s, the series follows Wiig's former beauty pageant queen Maxine Simmons as she attempts to break into Florida's Palm Beach high society. However, in the novel, Maxine finds herself exiled to Scottsdale, Ariz., from Palm Springs when she causes a drunken scene at Thanksgiving after her husband reveals he's leaving her to be with his secretary.

The show earned an Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie at the 2024 Emmys for Robert Downey Jr., who took on five different roles in the series.

Premiering on Hulu in 2017, this adaptation of Margaret Atwood's dystopian 1985 novel centered in the totalitarian state of Gilead following a Second American Civil War. And while the series has long since left its source material behind as it continues the tale of June Osborne (Elisabeth Moss), the titular subjugated handmaid, and her quest for freedom. It's won several Emmys, including Outstanding Drama Series in its first season.

This groundbreaking mini-series was originally adapted from Pulitzer Prize-winning author Alex Haley's 1976 novel Roots: The Saga of an American Family. Just one year later, Roots, starring LeVar Burton, premiered on ABC and became a cultural phenomenon, winning nine Emmys as well as a coveted Peabody Award. The ratings were also sky high, and the finale still holds a record as the second-most-watched-overall series finale in U.S. TV history. In 2016, a remake of the same name premiered, starring Malachi Kirby and Anika Noni Rose.

A waitress who can read minds and vampires with southern accents are only a few of the intriguing characters on this immortal drama. The series, starring now-real-life couple Anna Pacquin and Stephen Moyer, is based on The Southern Vampire Mysteries books by Charlaine Harris and focuses on a small town in Louisiana. After seven seasons, the show came to an end in 2014, but we will forever be grateful for giving all of us the gift of naked Alexander Skarsgård and Joe Manganiello.

Time travel, rebellion, and a love triangle are just the beginning of this exciting series based on historical fiction books by author Diana Gabaldon.

Based on the 2014 novel You Should Have Known by Jean Hanff Korelitz, The Undoing once again put Nicole Kidman in a leading role at the heart of a murder mystery. Specifically, therapist Grace Fraser (Kidman)'s life is turned upside down when her husband Jonathan (Hugh Grant) becomes a suspect in the murder of Elena Alves (Matilda De Angelis).

While the finale left viewers feeling conflicted, everyone could agree that Kidman's wardrobe was A+ in the series.

This crime drama following Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall), a blood spatter expert by day and serial killer by night, was originally based on books by author Jeff Lindsay. Over the course of eight seasons on Showtime, the series garnered a cult following, as well as 23 Emmy nominations. That series finale, though? Let's just say it's never easy to stick a landing.

The creative team took a second shot at wrapping up Dexter's story as a limited event series, titled Dexter: New Blood in 2021.

The award-winning Netflix original series is based on author Piper Kerman's memoir Orange is the New Black: My Year in a Women's Prison and was an instant hit.

After seven seasons, viewers left Litchfield behind for good in 2019.

Before Coach Taylor (Kyle Chandler) entered the TV screens and hearts of viewers, this sports drama was initially adapted into a film starring Billy Bob Thornton in the same role. But in 2006, author H.G. Bissinger's non-fiction book Friday Night Lights: A Town, a Team, and a Dream, hit the small screen and made non-football fans into believers. In addition to Chandler, the series also starred Connie Britton, Minka Kelly, Scott Porter, Michael B. Jordan, and everyone's favorite bad boy, Taylor Kitsch as Tim Riggins. Everyone say it with us now, "Clear Eyes, Full Hearts..."

Another Liane Moriarty adaptation! In 2021, Nicole Kidman and David E. Kelley collaborated once more to bring Moriarty's 2018 novel Nine Perfect Strangers to life. Debuting on Hulu, the series followed Masha Dmitrichenko (Kidman), a wellness retreat guru ready to transform the lives of nine, wait for it, strangers, including Frances (Melissa McCarthy), Lars (Luke Evans), Tony (Bobby Cannavale), Carmel (Regina Hall), Napoleon (Michael Shannon), Jessica (Samara Weaving), Ben (Melvin Gregg), Heather (Asher Keddie) and Zoe (Grace Van Patten).

This series, based on books by Upper East Side native Cecily von Ziegesar, became an iconic representation of the secret lives of young NYC elite. Whether you're a Blair (Leighton Meester) or a Serena (Blake Lively) you can't deny that the high-fashion cast made you just a little bit jealous during its six seasons on The CW.

The successful book series by author Sara Shepard was a favorite guilty pleasure show for binge watchers everywhere. The stylish squad featured Lucy Hale, Shay Mitchell, Ashley Benson and Troian Bellisario, who always kept fans on the edge of their seats. After seven seasons on Freeform, PLL tried to answer all the questions its legion of fans had as the end neared. Whether they were satisfied with those answers, well, that's another story.

SyFy drama The Magicians gives fans of Lev Grossman's popular book series a glimpse into the magical world of students at Brakebills University. The characters must navigate the typical challenges of college students (like fraught relationships and drug addictions) with the added twist of learning how to control their magical powers - as if life wasn't already complicated enough. Over the course of five seasons, the missions grew more dire, usually tasking the heroes with saving the multiverse or magic itself. (No big deal, right?) But one thing stayed the same: You could always count on an incredible musical episode.

The cast of hotties, including Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, Kat Graham and Ian Somerhalder, in this supernatural series was definitely a major contributor to this CW hit's popularity. Fans of the book series by L. J. Smith got to see their favorite heroes come to life in the drama, which ended in 2017 after eight seasons.
