With regards to 2025 Netflix releases which have come out to this point, for me, there’s no competitors relating to which one is my favourite. The Life Checklist starring Sofia Carson may need left critics divided, however I used to be all in on the romantic dramedy about residing life to the fullest. Effectively, it’s been lower than two months since its launch, and I’ve simply discovered Carson already has one other Netflix romance on the best way! And to make issues even higher, this film has a Bridgerton connection.
Carson is ready to star in a film referred to as My Oxford 12 months, coming to these with a Netflix subscription on August 1! The very best half? A Bridgerton star will probably be her main man this time round. Try one of many first look photographs:
Acknowledge that man? It’s Corey Mylchreest from the Queen Charlotte solid!
The English actor memorably performed a younger King George III within the Bridgerton spinoff we’ve been hoping for a Season 2 of. Since Mylchreest starred within the hit collection again in 2023, we haven’t actually seen him a lot in different titles. Nevertheless, thank goodness he’s acquired one other romance on his palms, this time with Sofia Carson. He completely stole our hearts in Queen Charlotte, and now I can not wait to see him do it once more within the modern-day.
Simply check out this different photograph of him and Carson wanting intensely at one another within the rain, and you will perceive my enthusiasm:
My Oxford 12 months relies on a novel of the identical identify by Julia Whelan that has a reasonably excessive ranking on Goodreads. It’s about an American lady named Ella Durran, who has spent her complete life dreaming about finding out at Oxford. Nevertheless, she will get a distinct time overseas than she’s anticipating when a neighborhood instructing the category, Jamie Davenport, turns into a romantic curiosity of hers.
For the film, they’ve modified the identify of Ella to Anna for some purpose, however it appears to be like just like the plot is just about the identical. Plus, it looks like her dreamy co-star is the proper alternative for Jamie Davenport.
Whereas talking to Netflix, Carson shared why Corey Mylchreest was the proper main man for her in My Oxford 12 months. In her phrases:
I watched Queen Charlotte in awe of Corey. He’s a rare drive of an actor… When it got here time to solid Jamie, I all the time knew it might be Corey. As quickly as he walked into the room for our chemistry learn in London, Anna and Jamie got here to life. Immediately. Corey was a real associate on this expertise . . . And collectively we had been devoted to diving into Anna and Jamie’s love story, to carry it to life with each little bit of our hearts.
I’m personally nonetheless not over her final main man, The Life Checklist’s Kyle Allen, however I completely can’t wait to see how these two actors, who’re turning into well-known for romances on Netflix, work collectively.
The Life Checklist was such a success that it spent six weeks within the prime 10 films on Netflix, and has been considered this week alone three million occasions (per Netflix). I think about My Oxford 12 months has the potential to be simply as standard, and much more swoonworthy!
