Amazon Orders Drama 'Every Year After' Created by Leila Gerstein

Amazon has today given a series order to the original drama series Every Year After based on the novel "Every Summer After" by Carley Fortune. An episode count and premiere date window were not immediately announced.






The fun, sweeping and romantic story will ask the question: what if your first love actually was your soulmate?

Leila Gerstein (Hart of Dixie, Saint X) developed the series. She will executive produce with Fortune. Amazon MGM Studios will produce.

"We are thrilled to bring the beautifully crafted story, Every Summer After, to our global Prime Video customers as Every Year After," said Vernon Sanders, Head of Television, Amazon MGM Studios. "Carley Fortune's wildly successful book is the perfect blend of heartfelt nostalgia and poignant romance. With Leila Gerstein's vision the audience will go through an exploration of this remarkable narrative in a way that captures its essence and emotional depth."

"Every Summer After holds a very special place in my heart and in the hearts of readers all over the world who deeply connect with Sam and Percy's love story," added Fortune. "I'm excited to partner with Amazon to take their journey even further - beyond the pages of the book, onto the screen, and into the hearts of audiences across the globe."
