Emily Henry's hit novel-turned-Netflix film adaptation, People We Meet on Vacation, will soon be gracing our screens, and we are counting down the days! The film, which is directed by Brett Haley, is slated to be released on January 9, 2026. Henry, 34, teased fans in early July 2025 about what the film would look like and the star-studded talent expected to portray the book's main characters. "I've been kind of an anxious wreck about who would play these characters," Henry told Netflix at the time.
