Justin Baldoni has signed a multi-book deal with publisher Harper Collins!

The 36-year-old Clouds director and actor has signed a major deal to write three books, with his first coming out in April 2021, Variety announced.

Justin‘s first title will be “Man Enough: Undefining My Masculinity,” which is based off of his 2017 TEDWomen Talk, “Why I’m Done Trying to Be Man Enough,” which explored redefining masculinity, embracing insecurities and debunking societal norms for those who identify as male.

According to Variety, “the book will explore Baldoni’s personal experience of “undefining” his masculinity, as he tackles difficult and uncomfortable topics, bringing readers on a journey of what it means to be a good man, and human being, in today’s world.”

“When I first began this journey of digging into my masculinity, I thought the work would be to redefine what it means to be a man. But through the process of writing this book, I realized that it’s not about redefining it, as much as it’s about undefining it,” he told the publication.

“I hope these words can be a source of unity that evokes empathetic and compassionate conversations around masculinity, while also inviting people to a deeper understanding of themselves and what it means to be human in the world we live in,” Justin said. “From the playground to movie sets, from classrooms to board rooms, I learned what it takes to be considered man enough in our world and this book is a — at times painfully — honest look into those messages and the journey I’m on to unlearn them; the journey I’m on to not just undefine my masculinity but to embrace my humanity.”

Clouds, which marks Justin‘s second directorial feature film, will premiere TOMORROW (October 16) on Disney+!

Another The Kissing Booth book is on the way!!

The author of the series, Beth Reekles, announced “The Kissing Booth 3: One Last Time” on Friday (September 11).

“Big news. Big. HUGE. The Kissing Booth 3 will be coming to Netflix in 2021… and so will the novel! TKB3: One Last Time is based on the script of the third movie and will be released in time with the movie next year! (Date TBC),” she shared on Instagram.

“I am SO excited about this, and it was so much fun to write. I was able to work closely with Netflix for TKB3 and though I can’t say anything yet on the storyline (sorry!) I will tell you… it’s gonna be totally awesome. I really hope you guys love it, too. 💋☀️🍿,” Beth added.

While she can’t reveal any plot details yet, she did say on her site that the third book will actually be a novelization of the final movie.

“I know it sounds a little strange, but bear with me while I explain it: our brilliant scriptwriter, Vince Marcello (joined by Jay Arnold, for the second and third movies) wrote the script TKB3 so they could film the two movies back-to-back. I was able to give feedback on the script before that, but honestly, I loved it,” Beth wrote.

“I’d been able to chat with Vince a few times throughout the whole process over the phone, and pretty early on we talked about how we saw Elle’s story unfolding. (Yep, that’s purposely vague – sorry, I really can’t give anything away about the storyline!)” she continued.

“This was a really weird and wonderful process, but I’ll talk about that more in another post. But, I will say now, that it follows on from my books – so instead of Marco and Chloe, you’ll be back with Levi and Amanda, for instance,” Beth concluded.

You can pre-order the book on Amazon UK or Book Depository, and while it says the book will be out on April 15th, Beth said that the date could change, and that’s not necessarily a movie release date, “We’ve just had to set a date to be able to let you guys pre-order.”
