Colleen Hoover Misses 'Regretting You' Promotion as Early Reviews Cool on Film

The adaptation arrives during a rapid expansion of Colleen Hoover’s work on screen.

Overview

  • Hoover said on Oct. 17 that an unavoidable surgery will keep her from premieres and press, and she has not shared medical details.
  • The Los Angeles premiere took place Oct. 20 without the author, who also stepped back from a planned appearance tied to a separate book event.
  • Author Anna Todd will moderate Lukas Gage’s Los Angeles event that Hoover was scheduled to host.
  • Regretting You opens in U.S. theaters Oct. 24 from Paramount, directed by Josh Boone and starring Allison Williams, Mckenna Grace, Dave Franco, Mason Thames, Scott Eastwood, Willa Fitzgerald and Clancy Brown.
  • Reviews published Oct. 22 by multiple outlets describe a tonally uneven, often overwrought drama, with praise concentrated on the younger leads and some lighter moments.
