A P.S. I Love You movie sequel is in the works, so prepare to weep for a week.
WATCH: Sneak peek of ‘P.S I Love You’ book sequel ‘Postscript’
Remember the heart wrenching 2007 rom-com, where Holly Kennedy (Hilary Swank) receives letters from her late husband (Gerard Butler) who died from a brain tumour?
The letters – each of which ends with “P.S. I Love You” – bring her hope, strength and inspiration and make her feel as if he is standing by her side each step of the way – and make for the ultimate sob-fest movie.
The story didn’t end there, and the new movie Postscript picks up Holly’s story seven years after her husband’s death, when Holly’s sister asks her to tell the story of the P.S. I Love You letters on her podcast.
According to Variety, Alcon Entertainment has acquired film rights to the follow-up novel from Cecelia Ahern, which was released last year. The company will co-finance and co-produce the movie with Black Label Media.
Alcon produced the original 2007 movie which was based on Ahern’s book. The film went on to earn $156 million at the worldwide box office.
As it’s still early days, there’s been no word on if Hilary Swank and Gerard Butler plan on signing back up to reprise their original roles.
