One Day — Official Trailer

added: Mon, Jan 8th '24

Netflix has released the official trailer for the upcoming limited British romantic drama series "One Day," which is based on David Nicholls's global best-selling novel of the same name. This series tells the enduring love story between two close "platonic" friends, Emma Morley and Dexter Mayhew, as they navigate life and their evolving relationship over the course of several decades.

The novel "One Day" was previously adapted into a 2011 feature film starring Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess, but this Netflix adaptation aims to provide a more faithful representation of the source material. Each episode of the series covers a year in the lives of Emma and Dexter, who, after spending the night of their graduation together, go their separate ways but continue to have deep feelings for each other over the span of a decade.

The series stars Ambika Mod (This Is Going to Hurt) as Emma and Leo Woodall (The White Lotus: Season 2) as Dexter. It was created by acclaimed Scottish writer Nicole Taylor whose credits include the British shows "Three Girls" and "The Nest." Taylor also wrote the screenplay for the Jessie Buckley-starring country singer drama "Wild Rose."

"One Day" is set to premiere on Netflix on February 8th. Watch the trailer, above.
