It seems like only yesterday that Colleen Hoover's book It Ends With Us was adapted for the big screen. Now, another one of her much-loved books is getting the movie treatment - and now the new trailer has dropped, fans cannot contain their excitement.

In August 2024, it was announced that an adaptation of her 2019 novel Regretting You was in development, and that it would be directed by Josh Boone. We've now had more details about the show drop, including its star-studded cast, that includes Allison Williams and Scott Eastwood.

'I think we try to keep as close to the book as possible,' Flavia Viotti, the movie’s producer, told Entertainment Weekly in July 2025. 'We know Colleen Hoover has a strong fan base, and we don’t want to disappoint them. But I don’t think fans will be disappointed.'

Is there a trailer for Regretting You?

Yes! Anticipation around the film is building thanks to the trailer which dropped this month. The trailer gives us the first glimpse at tense mother and daughter relationship between Morgan and Clara, the fatal accident that changes their life forever, and the loves they go on to experience as a consequence. You can watch it here.

What is the plot of Regretting You?

Fans of Colleen Hoover will know that Regretting You is based on her 2019 novel of the same name. The plot centres around a strained mother and daughter relationship between Morgan Grant and 16-year-old Clara, who, like many mothers and teens, are torn between conflicting personalities and goals.

When Morgan's husband Chris, the family's anchor, passes away, the consequences are heart wrenching for Clara and Morgan, who must adapt to the new normal. They both seek comfort elsewhere, and as time goes on secrets and distance builds between them - which Chris' death only unearths.

Who stars in Regretting You?

Allison Williams will star as Morgan, the lead of the film. You'll probably recognise her from Lena Dunham's Girls, but she's also had several roles in big screen horror movies, such as Get Out and M3GAN.

Her daughter Clara is played by McKenna Grace, who is known for her roles in films Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Gifted as well as TV series The Handmaid's Tale. Scott Eastwood, known for his roles in Suicide Squad and The Fate of the Furious, plays her husband, Chris. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly in July, Eastwood spoke about his character, saying he is 'kind of just like a beer-drinking dude, which I like because I can relate to, because I am a beer-drinking dude.'

Morgan's sister, Jenny, is played by Willa Fitzgerald, star of The Fall of the House of Usher. She's married to Jonah, portrayed by Dave Franco.

When does Regretting You come out?

We don't have long to wait! Regretting You actually completed production in May 2025. It will be released in cinemas on 24th October.
