“I’m delighted to be working with Yara and Charles on this heartfelt love story, which is both timeless and timely,” she said. “[Author] Nicola Yoon has given us a beautiful story to tell and we all couldn’t be more excited to make the streets of New York City, where I grew up not that long ago, our stage for the next few weeks. I fell in love with these characters and I know Yara and Charles will bring them alive and make this movie their own. I can’t wait to see what they do.”
