A Stacked Ensemble Cast

Directed by Lee Toland Krieger, the rom-com isn’t just about Millie Bobby Brown and Gabriel LaBelle. The cast lineup includes Amrit Kaur (The Sex Lives of College Girls), Julian Dennison, Anthony Keyvan (XO, Kitty), Ben Jackson Walker, Brec Bassinger, Idina Menzel, and Margo Martindale.

It’s also a family affair behind the scenes. Millie Bobby Brown and her husband Jake Bongiovi are producing the film—marking her first official step into the rom-com space as both actor and producer.

What’s Next for Millie Bobby Brown

This marks the second film of the year for Millie Bobby Brown, who wrapped Enola Holmes 3 earlier in 2025. Up next, she’s set to star in Perfect, portraying Olympic gymnast Kerri Strug. Directed by Gia Coppola, the film is currently in talks at Netflix and is slated to begin shooting in spring.

Of course, fans are also bracing for the end of an era. Stranger Things 5 Vol. One finally drops on November 26, closing out the series that made Millie Bobby Brown a global star.
