“If I cross a line, I ruin it.” “Everything’s such a mess right now…” Signature Ent. in the UK has debuted an official trailer for a sweet new British romantic comedy film called This Time Next Year, arriving on VOD in June this summer in the UK. No US date is set yet, and this hasn’t played at any festivals either, despite looking pretty good. Minnie and Quinn are born on the same day, one minute apart, in the same hospital in London. Their lives may have begun together, but their worlds couldn’t be more different now. Years later they find themselves bumping into each other again. Maybe it’s time for her to finally take a chance on love. Lucien Laviscount (best known from Emily in Paris) and Sophie Cookson (from “Gypsy” & Infinite) star in this effervescent tale of romance, friendship and two separate lives destined to align. It’s directed by acclaimed editor Nick Moore (who has edited many British classics including Notting Hill, About a Boy, Love Actually, Along Came Polly, Nanny McPhee, Wild Child). This looks charming! It’s simple yet sweet.

Here’s the official UK trailer (+ poster) for Nick Moore’s This Time Next Year, from Signature’s YouTube:

Flung together at a New Year’s Eve party one year, Minnie (Sophie Cookson) & Quinn (Lucien Laviscount) quickly realise they share a connection – they were born on New Year’s Day of the same year, in the same London hospital. Minnie grew up convinced that this mysterious Quinn stole all her luck, setting her on a path of misfortune. Horrified at the misunderstanding, Quinn is set on making amends. But is it Quinn or is it fate that is scheming to bring the two together? Only time will tell… This Time Next Year is directed by acclaimed British film editor Nick Moore, director of the films Wild Child, Horrid Henry: The Movie, and Pudsey the Dog: The Movie previously, and an editor on many classics including Notting Hill, About a Boy, Love Actually, Along Came Polly, Nanny McPhee, and Morning Glory. The screenplay is written by Sophie Cousens. It’s produced by Erika Hossington, Herbert Kloiber, and Giuliano Papadia. This hasn’t premiered at any film festivals or elsewhere, as far as we know. Signature Ent. will debut This Time Next Year direct-to-VOD in the UK starting June 3rd, 2024 this summer. No US release date is confirmed yet – stay tuned.
