Kathryn Newton to Star in and Produce "Just One Day" TV Adaptation

Yara Sameh "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania" star Kathryn Newton is set to star and produce the Amazon series "Just One Day", based on the Gayle Forman YA romance novels that comprise two books and a follow-up novella. Sherri Cooper and Jennifer Levin are attached to adapt and create the series. The blurb for the first book, the 2013-published "Just One Day": Allyson Healey whose life is exactly like her suitcase — packed, planned, ordered. Then on the last day of her three-week post-graduation European tour, she meets Willem. A free-spirited, roving actor, Willem is everything she's not, and when he invites her to abandon her plans and come to Paris with him, Allyson says yes. This uncharacteristic decision leads to a day of risk and romance, liberation and intimacy: 24 hours that will transform Allyson's life. When unforeseen circumstances separate Allyson and Willem after their whirlwind day together, they are left to embark on their individual journeys. We follow Allyson over the next year as she struggles to fit in at college. Willem never leaves her mind and she finds herself constantly drawn back to Willem and that one day. And so begins a quest: one to discover herself and to discover love. "Just One Day", released in August 2013, tells the story from Allyson's point of view, while "Just One Year", published in September 2014, is told from Willem's POV. The series has been sold into 19 territories and sold just under 1 million copies. PKM Productions' Patrick Moran and Lynley Bird brought the project into Amazon where it is set up under their first-look deal and they will be producing the project. Forman and Anna Mastro are also attached to produce. In addition to starring in the $476 million global-grossing Quantumania as Casse Lang, the daughter to Paul Rudd's character, Newton also starred in the $450M global-grossing "Pokemon: Detective Pikachu" as well as Focus Features' "Lisa Frankenstein" from Zelda Williams, and Radio Silence's vampire horror pic "Abigail". Other credits include "The Map of Tiny Perfect Things" and the body-swap slasher "Freaky" opposite Vince Vaughn, as well as the Netflix series "The Society" and Universal's R-rated comedy film "Blockers", which world premiered at SXSW in 2018. Up next, she's reteaming with Radio Silence for Searchlight's "Ready or Not 2", shooting this spring. Other credits include "Big Little Lies", the Oscar-winning "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing", "Missouri", and Greta Gerwig's "Lady Bird". read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Videos & Features Bouchra Dahlab Crowned Miss Arab World 2025 ..
