Netflix Acquires YA Adaptation ‘The Statistical Probability of Love At First Sight’ From Ace Entertainment

The movie adapts the novel of the same name which was first released back in 2011. Katie Lovejoy is writing the screenplay adaptation who worked on the second and third To All The Boys movies.

Vanessa Caswill serves as the director of the movie who has largely worked on shorts and TV mini-series in her career including Gold Digger for Acorn TV, Little Women for PBS and Thirteen for BBC America.

The new movie comes from Ace Entertainment who is currently working on a slew of projects for Netflix and worked on the highly watched To All The Boys YA adaptations.

Some of their upcoming projects include Florida Man for Netflix, a new TV series from Drew Hancock and Chris Romano. They’re also working on XO, Kitty, a spinoff of To All The Boys. More recently, Netflix acquired another movie from them in the form of Hello, Goodbye and Everything in Between set to release this summer.

The cast assembled for the movie includes (listed in order in the picture above top left to top right, bottom left and bottom right):

• Haley Lu Richardson will play Hadley – known for Five Feet Apart and The Edge of Seventeen. Soon to appear as Portia in HBO’s The White Lotus.
• Ben Hardy will play Oliver – known for X-Men Apocalypse and Netflix’s 6 Underground.
• Jameela Jamil – known for The Good Place (on Netflix globally) and set to appear in Disney’s She-Hulk/
• Rob Delaney – known for the Prime Original Catastrophe and Deadpool 2.
• Dexter Fletcher – known for Rocketman and Eddie the Eagle.
• Sally Phillips – known for Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and the Bridget Jones movies.

Where is the movie in production?

Filming has already happened on the project. According to production notes on IMDb, the movie filmed throughout early 2021 with cameras rolling between January and February. It’s been in post-production ever since.

The movie is filmed entirely in the United Kingdom and certain scenes were filmed at Stansted Airport, one of the major London airports.

Given the movie has wrapped, we’d assume the movie will hit Netflix at some point in 2022 but no confirmation of that as of yet.
