    In August, it was announced that "My Lady Jane" actress Emily Bader and "The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes" actor Tom Blyth will play Poppy and Alex, the two main characters of Emily Henry's beloved romance novel.

    The book follows Poppy and Alex, two best friends who live apart but reunite each summer for a weeklong vacation, "until two years ago, when they ruined everything," a synopsis for the novel reads.
