Netflix Canada has found its Lucy. Yellowjackets and Heated Rivalry star Sophie Nélisse has been tapped to lead the upcoming romance series, This Summer Will Be Different, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
The 10-episode series is based on Carley Fortune’s popular romance novel of the same name and hails from Sphere Media. THR announced the series earlier this year.
Nélisse is set to take on the role of Lucy. Casting for her love interest, Felix, has yet to be announced.
The show’s logline describes the adaptation as “a simmering, sun-soaked romance set across multiple summers on Prince Edward Island about Lucy, a young woman navigating her 20s and her first real love with her best friend’s brother, the one person she was never supposed to fall for.”
