Fans eager to see The Summer I Turned Pretty<\/strong> movie<\/strong> have to wait longer than expected for its release date<\/strong>. Recently, series creator Jenny Han confirmed that filming has not yet started and a release timeline has not been established.<\/p>\n The highly anticipated movie adaptation of The Summer I Turned Pretty will not release in 2026. The news was confirmed by author and series creator Jenny Han in a recent interview.<\/p>\n Speaking with Variety<\/a>, Han addressed questions about the project\u2019s timeline after being asked, \u201cYou\u2019ve written an early draft, but it\u2019s still very early. Is it safe to say that it\u2019ll be out next year?\u201d She responded, \u201cNo, I don\u2019t think so. I don\u2019t know when it will be out, but I don\u2019t think it\u2019s safe to say next year because we haven\u2019t filmed it yet.\u201d<\/p>\n Han explained that the extra time will allow the actors to better portray the characters as they grow. She said, \u201cI honestly, really want that extra time, because it\u2019s just getting the actors a little bit closer to adulthood.\u201d<\/p>\n Han continued, \u201cWe\u2019re getting to see Belly at 15, turning 16, and then seeing her as this young woman. And now Lola is 22! I think that I always wanted some distance for the movie, so I\u2019m really glad to get that breathing space.\u201d When asked about the story\u2019s time jump, Han clarified that no decisions have been made yet.<\/p>\n The film was confirmed by Amazon Prime Video hours after the show\u2019s finale premiered on the platform. While specific plot details remain under wraps, the studio said the film will conclude Belly\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n Han will return to write and direct the movie. In a conversation with TODAY<\/a>, she noted, \u201cI can say there\u2019s another big milestone for Belly, so we\u2019ll continue with that journey.\u201d<\/p>\n Originally reported by Disheeta Maheshwari on ComingSoon<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n The post The Summer I Turned Pretty Movie Release Date Gets Disappointing News<\/a> appeared first on Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Fans eager to see The Summer I Turned Pretty movie have to wait longer than expected for its release date.
