Inspired by Emily Henry’s popular 2021 novel, People We Meet on Vacation is a charming and romantic story about Poppy, a carefree spirit, and Alex, her more reserved best friend. They’ve stayed close for years by taking a yearly summer trip together. As time passes, they start to question whether their relationship could be something more than just friendship. Though romance is central to the story, author Emily Henry emphasized to Tudum that it was crucial to show Poppy and Alex as genuinely platonic best friends with a deep, loving connection – but not a romantic one – at the beginning.
