It may be winter, but this week we are feeling the summer heat with the crew behind the movie “People We Meet on Vacation.” Danielle sits down with author Emily Henry, director Brett Haley, and stars Emily Bader and Tom Blyth for a look at bringing People We Meet on Vacation to the screen. They talk about the early conversations that shaped the adaptation, the scenes Emily Henry insisted stay in, and the iconic moments fans can’t wait to see. Brett shares how he approached the friends-to-lovers dynamic, and the cast opens up about instant chemistry, summer-camp-style rehearsals, and even creates an entirely new rom-com on the fly.
