Prime Video gears up to launch 'Every Year After', a new romance series based on Carley Fortune's novel, hoping to fill the void left by the popular 'The Summer I Turned Pretty'. The series, starring Sadie Soverall and Matt Cornett, will premiere on June 10th, telling a story of first loves and the choices that define us, set in a quintessential lake town. With the original series' movie adaptation in the works, this upcoming show is well-positioned for success. It will showcase a well-known cast and crew as well as following the success of its novel counterpart on The New York Times Bestseller list and social media.

Prime Video is poised to fill the void left by The Summer I Turned Pretty with its new romantic series, Every Year After . The Summer I Turned Pretty , a massive success for the streaming platform, captivated audiences worldwide, leading to a forthcoming movie adaptation after the series concluded.

The adaptation of Jenny Han's novel, a global sensation, topped the charts in over 120 countries during its third season and experienced a threefold increase in viewership compared to its debut season, solidifying its place in the hearts of viewers. Now, Prime Video is banking on the nostalgic allure of Every Year After, based on Carley Fortune's bestselling novel, to replicate this success. The platform has released first-look images, building anticipation for the series which will premiere all eight episodes on June 10th. The series promises to deliver a compelling story of first loves and the enduring impact of choices, set against the picturesque backdrop of Barry's Bay, a quintessential lake town. \Every Year After boasts a talented cast, with Sadie Soverall, known for her role in Saltburn, and Matt Cornett, recognized for Summer of 69, leading the ensemble as the main characters, Percy and Sam. The supporting cast includes Abigail Cowen, Aurora Perrineau, Michael Bradway, Joseph Chiu, and Elisha Cuthbert, each bringing their own distinct talent to the project. The narrative unfolds over six years, and one transformative week, promising a deep dive into the characters' lives and relationships. The series is based on Fortune's novel, a literary success in its own right, spending 16 weeks on The New York Times Bestseller list and selling over 1 million copies to date. The book's popularity surged on social media, particularly on BookTok, where the hashtag garnered over 81.4 million views, demonstrating its strong appeal to a young and engaged audience. Amy B. Harris, known for her work on projects like Just My Luck, The Wilds, and Gossip Girl, will serve as the showrunner and executive producer, alongside Fortune herself, and Lindsey Liberatore, Amy Rardin, John Stephens, and Grace Gilroy, ensuring that the essence and heart of the original story are carefully preserved. The production team aims to translate the novel's emotional depth and relatable themes into a captivating visual experience for viewers, mirroring the success of its predecessor. \The legacy of The Summer I Turned Pretty, which concluded in 2025 after a successful three-season run, continues with a respectable 79% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, is a testament to its impact. The creator and author, Jenny Han, is actively involved in writing and directing the feature film adaptation, a final chapter for Belly's story. The series followed Belly's complicated love triangle between two brothers, Conrad and Jeremiah Fisher, with whom she spent her summers. The focus on this narrative showcases the delicate balance between first love and the growth that comes with it. As the series moves into the film adaptation, the creators seek to present the most refined version of the story, allowing the actors to age into their roles and ensuring that the story will be just as good as the original series. While no release date has been officially announced, the dedication to crafting a perfect finale is a great indication of the overall dedication to the show's loyal fan base. The anticipated release of Every Year After on June 10th promises to bring viewers another dose of heartfelt romance, nostalgic summer vibes, and the exploration of the complexities of love and relationships, continuing Prime Video's commitment to creating engaging content for its subscribers
