Lili Reinhart, Tom Bateman Form 'Love Hypothesis' in New Rom-Com
The adaptation follows a fake-dating pact that blurs into real feelings, with Prime Video saying the film will stream globally next month.
- On Wednesday, Prime Video released the official trailer for the film adaptation of Ali Hazelwood's bestseller The Love Hypothesis, featuring Lili Reinhart and Tom Bateman. The romantic comedy, directed by Claire Scanlon, premieres exclusively on September 23, 2026.
- Ph.D. candidate Olive Smith impulsively kisses intimidating professor Adam Carlsen to convince her best friend, Ahn, that she has moved on from her crush, Jeremy. The act spirals into a "fake relationship with rules, boundaries, and a mutually beneficial agreement."
- The brooding professor, known as "Dr. Evil," agrees to the arrangement because Stanford University officials consider him a "flight risk" regarding his research grant. Olive uses the nickname during their initial encounter.
- As the pair maintains their ruse, "the lines begin to blur for Olive and Adam on what is and isn" as their dynamic shifts. Reinhart and Bateman noted the book was "always front and center" during filming to ensure the story's spirit was translated.
- Directed by Claire Scanlon from a script by Sarah Rothschild, the film also features actors Jaboukie Young-White and Arty Froushan. Elizabeth Cantillon produced the Amazon MGM film, which adapts the popular novel for global streaming audiences.
