Miles Heizer, Tommy Do, Alice Lee, Alan Ruck, and Molly Shannon are boarding Tom Blyth and Emily Bader in the feature adaptation of Emily Henry’s People We Meet on Vacation.

Brett Haley directs the Temple Hill, 3000 Pictures and Netflix romantic comedy.

Temple Hill’s Marty Bowen, Wyck Godfrey and Isaac Klausner are producing while the studio’s Laura Quicksilver will serve as EP. Erin Siminoff is overseeing the project for 3000 Pictures.

In People We Meet on Vacation, free-spirited Poppy and routine-loving Alex have been unlikely best friends for a decade, living in different cities but spending every summer vacation together. The careful balance of their friendship is put to the test when they begin to question what has been obvious to everyone else — could they actually be the perfect romantic match?

The Berkely Penguin Random House imprint published novel debuted at #1 on the New York Times bestseller list and spent more than one year on the list. It has sold more than 2 million copies in the U.S, making it Henry’s highest selling book. The book also won the Goodreads Choice Award for Romance and was listed as one of the best books of 2021 by Kirkus Reviews.

The film is being produced under a partnership in which Sony Pictures will offer Netflix a first look at any films it intends to make for streaming.
