But Anna doesn’t have a choice and, before she knows it, she’s in the City of Light. She has a good job at the local movie theater, an excellent best friend, and a swoon-worthy crush-all of which she’ll have to leave behind to attend school in a country where she doesn’t even speak the language. Now that mainstream content creators are recognizing the power of romance as a genre, where is the Anna and the French Kiss adaptation we’ve all been waiting for?Īnna and the French Kiss follows Atlantan teenager Anna who is unexpectedly informed by her father that she will be attending her senior year abroad at a boarding school in Paris. It’s a foundational text of the genre, and it’s long past time it gets the screen treatment. On that note, it’s recently come to my attention that Anna and the French Kiss, the debut novel from author Stephanie Perkins that follows an American teen to Paris for her senior year of high school, is 10 years old. The streamer has been leaning much more heavily into the teen romance genre in recent years, which means some iconic YA romance getting screen adaptations. With the To All the Boys series set to wrap up this week, it’s time to talk about what the next big Netflix young adult romance adaptation could be-because we now know it’s not going to be The Summer I Turned Pretty.
