If you’re looking for a real page-turner, this may be the right read for you. It’s hard to assign a specific genre to the story, as it’s a bit of a historical fiction drama, there’s plenty of romance, and there’s some mystery to be solved. Through her conversations with Monique, she reveals the true stories behind each of her marriages, as well as her career. That Evelyn is willing to share her story at all is a big deal, but why she’s chosen Monique to interview her is one of the mysteries left to be solved. The story follows a reporter named Monique Grant, who’s surprised to find herself invited to interview Evelyn Hugo, an iconic movie star from the Old Hollywood era of film, who’s become rather reclusive in recent years. The book on which this adaptation is based was published in 2017 and gained even more popularity in the years that followed, thanks to readers on social media platforms like TikTok. As of May 2023, as far as we know, the movie hasn’t even started production, which means it’s probably unlikely that we’ll see this one on Netflix's 2023 movie release schedule. Netflix announced that they were adapting the popular book in March 2022, and details about it beyond that have been few and far between.
