All of You, Apple TV+'s new original film airing in September, is shaping up to be the next must-watch romantic thriller. The trailer is already giving us goosebumps, showcasing the electric chemistry between Ted Lasso’s Brett Goldstein and 28 Weeks Later star Imogen Poots. Directed by William Bridges – known for his writing work on Black Mirror and Stranger Things – it’s certainly set to tug on some heartstrings. Successful shows like The Summer I Turned Pretty and Normal People follow a similar trajectory, sending viewers into emotional spirals with multiple love interests. With a stellar writer behind it and already making waves at film festivals, this film is one to watch out for – perhaps with a glass of wine and a box of tissues in hand.

HELLO!’s resident TV & film fanatic, Josh Osman, is equally excited about this one. ''All of You is certain to be the next big sci-fi romance – it’s got a small but solid cast of indie darlings, from Ted Lasso’s Brett Goldstein to Zawe Ashton, who I first came across through her brilliant performance in Netflix’s Velvet Buzzsaw alongside Jake Gyllenhaal," he says. "If you’re a fan of shows like Normal People or films like The Notebook, filled with miscommunicated yearning dialled up to a thousand, then this will be an absolute treat for you. It made its festival rounds last year to fantastic reception, so when it lands on Apple at the end of September, it’s definitely going on my watchlist.''

What is All of You about?

Billed as a ''heart-wrenching romance drama'' with a sprinkling of futuristic sci-fi, All of You follows two best friends from college – Simon (Brett Goldstein) and Laura (Imogen Poots) – who drift apart after she takes a new test to find her soulmate. Over the next twelve years, their lives shift in unexpected ways, and their paths keep crossing – forcing them to confront the question of whether they’ve missed out on a life together. The central tension? Whether to upend their lives for a chance at love, or accept the path they’ve chosen.
