Get in, loser! We’re watching the trailer for Emily Henry’s People We Meet On Vacation.

Emily Henry is a phenom unto herself.

A New York Times bestseller known for her slow burning, thoughtful romances and prolific pace, some say she’s single-handedly steering the literary romance renaissance. While the filmed rom-com continues to flounder since Nora Ephron’s passing, Henry’s witty, character-driven canon is tending the hearth in the stacks.

Today, fans of romance on page and screen are in for a special treat. The trailer for Henry’s first book-to-film adaptation, People We Meet on Vacation, has landed. And yes, it is extremely charming. See below.

A quick diagnostic, befitting the genre. Do we have two beloved character actors playing the parents? Check.

A soundtrack bop just this side of iconic, from a Swedish master? Check.

And visible chemistry, that slippery thing, between two pretty people who say they’re friends but may, in fact, be more than friends?! 

Check, check, check.

I’m personally optimistic about this love story, coming to Netflix just in time to address the January doldrums. You can meet the People We Meet on Vacation on the 9th day of 2026.
