"At a certain point, I thought it was totally dead,"
"I needed to take a step back. This is too painful to push this stone up this hill and not have any real control, but to want it so badly."
"I have been comparing it to the Julia Roberts laugh in Pretty Woman. It felt like light bursting out of her, And then Tom did this tiny little smirk because his character Alex had delighted Poppy, and her surprise and delight had made him very happy. And that's their exact dynamic in the book; they're always performing for each other."
Emily Henry experienced a lengthy, uncertain development period for the film adaptation of People We Meet on Vacation, with frequent updates from director Brett Haley before stepping back. The project later received a new script and a green light, and the movie premiered on Netflix, topping the platform's most-watched list. The plot centers on Alex and Poppy, estranged friends reunited in Barcelona who must confront past romantic tension. Casting of Tom Blyth and Emily Bader was praised for reflecting the book's dynamic. Henry is working on a new draft of Funny Story and pursuing additional adaptations.
