Prime Video Unveils First Looks for YA Adaptations at Alpine Retreat
Confirmed
In Short: Prime Video has gathered a star-studded cast for its upcoming YA series at an immersive retreat in the Bavarian Alps.
Prime Video has brought together a group of rising stars for its upcoming Young Adult (YA) series, with the first looks from "Boys of Tommen," "Love Me Love Me 2," and "Our Fault: London" revealed at the Obsessed Retreat: Class of '26. The event, held in the Bavarian Alps, Germany, showcased the cast and provided a glimpse into the upcoming adaptations.
The first official images for "Boys of Tommen," based on Chloe Walsh's bestselling series, were unveiled at the retreat. Nancy Surridge stars as Shannon Lynch, the shy and traumatised new girl at Tommen College, while Conor Sánchez portrays Johnny Kavanagh, the rugby star. Other cast members include James O'Donoghue as Joey Lynch and Sophie McGibbon as Aoife Molloy. The series, directed by VMA-nominated Brendan Canty, is now in production and will focus on the forbidden love story between Shannon and Johnny.
At the retreat, Prime Video also confirmed the cast for "Love Me Love Me 2," an Italian production, and "Our Fault: London," which is set to premiere on the platform. The event was a two-day immersive experience, bringing together the YA stars for a campus-style retreat in the alps, much like the setting of the books.
The first official images for "Boys of Tommen" were met with excitement from fans, who were eager to see the adaptation of the beloved series. The photos, featuring Surridge and Sánchez, were particularly anticipated, as they represent the main characters of the story. The retreat also featured new imagery from "Our Fault: London," further building anticipation for the upcoming series.
The Obsessed Retreat: Class of '26 event highlighted Prime Video's commitment to YA content, with a focus on non-English language international Originals. The platform has ordered eight episodes for the first season of "Boys of Tommen," and the series is expected to be a significant addition to Prime Video's YA slate. The event was a testament to the growing popularity of YA content and Prime Video's dedication to bringing these stories to life.
