“After we met, I had a bit of a crush on you.” “So what happened to it…?” Meet the new Emma and Dexter! Netflix has revealed the first official trailer for One Day, the brand new adaptation of the book of the same name. The upcoming limited series One Day will launch globally with all 14 episodes available in February. Emma and Dexter meet for the first time on the night of their graduation, in July of 1988. Tomorrow they must go their separate ways. One Day is a decades-spanning love story, based on the worldwide bestseller by David Nicholls. Each episode finds Dex and Em, one year older, on this one particular date, as they grow and change, move together and apart, experience joy and heartbreak. This story was already made into a movie back in 2011, starring Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess, also called One Day. Netflix’s new One Day stars Ambika Mod as Emma and Leo Woodall as Dex, also featuring Essie Davis, Tim McInnerny, Amber Grappy, Jonny Weldon, Eleanor Tomlinson, Joely Richardson, and Toby Stephens. This looks sweet and charming, and I like the concept of setting subsequent episodes one year later. Check it out.
