'Regretting You' trailer out: Allison Williams, McKenna Grace, Dave Franco lead this moving story of love, grief
Directed by Josh Boone and penned by Susan McMartin, 'Regretting You' explores a deeply layered story of grief, betrayal, and healing. At the heart of it lies the strained relationship between Morgan Grant (Williams) and her teenage daughter Clara (Grace).
The film opens with the seemingly perfect Grant family — Morgan, her husband Chris (Scott Eastwood), and their daughter Clara. Their peaceful life is shattered by a devastating car crash that kills both Chris and Morgan's sister Jenny (Willa Fitzgerald).
The tragedy unearths uncomfortable secrets about the people they loved and thought they knew. As Morgan and Clara are forced to confront these truths, Jenny's husband Jonah (Dave Franco) is pulled into the emotional aftermath alongside them.
Amid the grief, Clara begins to rediscover hope through a growing bond with Miller Adams (Mason Thames), one of the most popular boys at school.
As the trailer suggests, Regretting You promises a compelling blend of romantic drama and family reconciliation, portraying the emotional fallout of loss and the complex paths toward forgiveness.
The cast also includes Clancy Brown and Aubrey Brockwell as young Clara.
Starring Allison Williams as Morgan Grant and Mckenna Grace as Clara Grant, the ensemble is rounded out by Dave Franco, Mason Thames, Willa Fitzgerald, and Scott Eastwood in pivotal roles.
Regretting You lands in cinemas on October 24, 2025 — a heartfelt story of love, loss, and the ties that hold families together even when broken.

Piers Morgan defends Beyoncé's ‘Marilyn Monroe' comment; follows up with justifying tweet amid backlash: 'It was a JOKE'
Piers Morgan is yet again at the center of a social media storm, and this time for his comments on Beyoncé's latest advertisement campaign for a leading denim brand. The broadcaster faced fierce backlash from the Beyhive, Beyoncé's devoted fanbase, after he suggested the singer was "culturally appropriating Marilyn Monroe' concerning her iconic style in the ad. In a new development, Morgan has now claimed that his tweet was a joke. Here's a closer look at the controversy regarding Piers Morgan and the backlash. Morgan Piers' tweet on Beyoncé's advertisement Morgan's initial tweet, posted on August 6, 2025, quickly went viral, attracting a flood of criticism. The post emerged amid a wider online debate comparing Beyoncé's campaign to Sydney Sweeney 's American Eagle advertisement, which drew criticism from some conservative commentators. Morgan's tweet, which garnered over 650,000 views and nearly 2,000 replies, was met with comments ranging from " Marilyn Monroe is not a culture" to accusations of racial animosity. What was the advertisement all about? In the ad, Beyoncé channels a classic Old Hollywood aesthetic, complete with platinum blonde hair, red lipstick, and winged eyeliner, a signature look often associated with Marilyn Monroe. While many saw it as a stylish homage, Morgan's comment framed it as cultural appropriation. However, this accusation was quickly dismissed by fans who argued that Monroe's look is a universally celebrated pop culture aesthetic, not a protected cultural identity. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Use an AI Writing Tool That Actually Understands Your Voice Grammarly Install Now Undo Morgan reacts to the backlash Facing the wave of negative attention, Morgan doubled down in a follow-up tweet, claiming his original post was a joke. "I would say I can't believe anyone took my obvious Beyoncé joke post seriously, but I forgot the woke brigade have no sense of humor," he wrote. This defense, however, did little to quell the outrage, with many social media users calling the "joke" a transparent attempt to deflect from his original, inflammatory statement. This isn't the first time Morgan has clashed with the Beyhive. In October 2024, he was forced to issue an on-air apology to Beyoncé and her husband, JAY-Z, after airing unverified abuse allegations on his show. As Beyoncé's Levi's campaign continues to draw attention and fuel conversations about celebrity influence and cultural expression, Morgan's latest controversy serves as another example of his often confrontational relationship with the music icon's powerful fanbase.

Colleen Hoover's Regretting You Trailer Out Amid It Ends With Us Controversy
The trailer introduces audiences to Morgan Grant (Allison Williams) and her daughter, Clara Grant (McKenna Grace). The author of It Ends With Us, Colleen Hoover, is bringing back her bestselling novel of 2019, Regretting You, to life. The upcoming romantic drama promises a heart-wrenching storyline. Recently, the makers released the trailer of Regretting You, providing the first official insight into the movie, which features Allison Williams and McKenna Grace as a mother-daughter duo. On Tuesday, the first trailer of Regretting You was dropped on the official channel of Paramount Pictures on YouTube. Directed by Josh Boone, known for the 2014 movie The Fault in Our Stars, the upcoming romantic drama introduces audiences to Morgan Grant (Allison Williams) and her daughter Clara Grant (McKenna Grace). The duo can be seen exploring their lives after facing a devastating loss in an accident. Trailer Of Regretting You The caption alongside the trailer of the movie reads, 'When life pulls you down, love lifts you up." The 2-minute 32-second video gives a sneak peek into the storyline featuring the shocking betrayal and forces between the mother-daughter duo of the film, which leads them to confront family secrets, redefine love, and rediscover each other. The caption further mentions, 'REGRETTING YOU is a story of growth, resilience, and self-discovery in the aftermath of tragedy." The film opens in the theatres on October 24. It also stars Scott Eastwood (as Chris Grant, Morgan's husband and Clara's father), Dave Franco (as Jonah Sullivan, Morgan's love interest after her husband's tragic accident), Mason Thames (as Miller Adams, Clara's love interest), and Willa Fitzgerald (as Jenny Davidson, Morgan's sister). Dave Franco Opens Up About His Regretting You Character Previously, in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Dave Franco described his character in the romantic drama as 'pretty pure-hearted and to a fault sometimes," adding, 'He is always trying to do the right thing, even if it goes against what his heart is telling him. I usually play either villains or very morally corrupt characters… but it's nice to play a character that is hopefully a little bit closer to who I am in real life." He continued, 'That's been really, really fun — to not start in a place where I feel like I've dug a hole for myself… I can now start in a good place where audiences will hopefully be on board with me from the get-go." Allison Williams Quips On Her Emotional Role In Regretting You In the same conversation, Allison Williams also reflected on her role. 'My whole nervous system and my tear ducts really need the levity. As you may see in this scene, in every scene, I cannot resist the urge to punctuate these scenes with improv that can never end up in the movie because it's a PG-13 movie, and I swear like a sailor. Given that my only formal training is improv comedy, it's just sort of the crutch I rely on every once in a while," she said. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

First look at Colleen Hoover's Regretting You: The Hoover-verse stays strong despite Baldoni-Lively legal drama
The Colleen Hoover cinematic universe is expanding despite the debris left behind by Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively's explosive legal drama circa It Ends With Us (2024). Regretting You, Hoover's bestselling 2019 novel, has officially made its way to the screen. Directed by The Fault in Our Stars' (2014) Josh Boone, the adaptation stars Allison Williams and McKenna Grace as a mother-daughter duo unraveling after a devastating loss. The cast also includes Dave Franco, Scott Eastwood, Mason Thames, and Willa Fitzgerald. First look at Colleen Hoover's Regretting You The first trailer drops Tuesday, and fans are already dissecting the first-look photos shared by Entertainment Weekly — from funeral scenes and porch conversations to charged glances that scream 'Hoover heartbreak incoming.' The film hits theaters on October 24, 2025, and if the cast and crew's behind-the-scenes stories are any hint, it's about to be a messy, beautiful emotional rollercoaster. Dave Franco plays a good guy this time and he's loving it Known for his darker or slightly offbeat roles, Franco describes Jonah, his Regretting You character, as 'pretty pure-hearted and to a fault sometimes.' He adds, about his character: 'He is always trying to do the right thing, even if it goes against what his heart is telling him.' Laughing, he reflects, 'I usually play either villains or very morally corrupt characters… but it's nice to play a character that is hopefully a little bit closer to who I am in real life.' He further said, 'That's been really, really fun — to not start in a place where I feel like I've dug a hole for myself… I can now start in a good place where audiences will hopefully be on board with me from the get-go.' Allison Williams brings tears and improv After turning heads in M3GAN, Allison Williams is back, but in a very different emotional space. 'My whole nervous system and my tear ducts really need the levity,' she says of moving between horror, drama, and her improv roots. 'As you may see in this scene, in every scene, I cannot resist the urge to punctuate these scenes with improv that can never end up in the movie because it's a PG-13 movie and I swear like a sailor,' she said further. Even with a heavy emotional load, she admits comedy is where her instincts still pull her. 'Given that my only formal training is improv comedy, it's just sort of the crutch I rely on every once in a while.' For Hoover fans, there are Easter eggs everywhere Producer Brunson Green teased that Regretting You includes 'little things sprinkled in' for die-hard fans of Colleen Hoover's books. 'She does have her own cult following in a way that you want to make a nod and a wink to say that you appreciate that they're checking out the film,' he said. What is Regretting You about? At its heart, the film explores the strained bond between Morgan (Williams) and Clara (Grace), a mother and daughter forced to grieve differently after the sudden death of Morgan's husband (played by Scott Eastwood). As both women process the tragedy, secrets are revealed, relationships tested, and trust fractured. The story's core isn't just about love, it's about how we rebuild when the person we trusted most disappears.
