'Reminders of Him': All About the Colleen Hoover Adaptation Starring Maika Monroe and Rudy Pankow
Another Colleen Hoover book is coming to the big screen. In October 2024, Deadline reported that Universal had landed the rights to her bestselling book Reminders of Him. The novel — which was published in 2022 and sold over 6.5 million copies globally — follows ex-convict Kenna Rowan as she returns to her hometown after a five-year prison stint, determined to reconnect with her 4-year-old daughter and the one man in town who hasn't written her off. 'I am thrilled to be working with Universal to bring Kenna Rowan's world to life,' Hoover told Deadline. 'I hear from many readers who tell me they found something of themselves in her story of living with and through tragedy and doing the often messy and imperfect work of healing and turning the page to a fresh chapter in life.'
