Popular Gerard Butler & John Krasinski Movies
Are Being Turned Into New TV Shows
---------------------------------------------
Two popular films starring Gerard Butler and John Krasinski
are reportedly heading for the small screen, catering to U.K.
audiences. According to Deadline, Alcon, the production
company behind Practical Magic 2 and Blade Runner 2049, is
planning to adapt several of its movies into television shows
in the United Kingdom.

The media group recently launched Alcon International Studios
with former Amazon exec Diego Piasek as President. The team
is now aiming to strengthen its foothold in the U.K. and
Europe. P.S. I Love You and Something Borrowed are among the
films that Alcon is planning to turn into television shows.
Both are popular romantic movies featuring star-studded casts.

P.S. I Love You is led by acclaimed actors Gerard Butler and
Hilary Swank. Meanwhile, Something Borrowed stars Ginnifer
Goodwin, Kate Hudson, and John Krasinski. It follows Rachel,
who has a crush on her fellow student Dex. However, as her
best friend Darcy is about to get married to Dex, Rachel must
decide whether to confess her feelings or keep them bottled
for Darcy's sake.

What is Gerard Butler's P.S. I Love You movie about?
P.S. I Love You is a 2007 romantic comedy-drama based on
Cecelia Ahern's 2004 novel of the same name. The story follows
Holly, who has lost her husband, Gerry, to a brain tumor after
ten years of marriage. The grief leads her to withdraw from her
family and loved ones.

On her birthday, Holly receives a cassette recording from Gerry
containing a message, one of the many he had arranged to have
delivered to her after his death. The messages, all of which
end with "P.S. I Love You," bring Holly strength and make her
realize that Gerry will always be by her side.

In addition to Butler and Swank, P.S. I Love You also stars
Lisa Kudrow, Harry Connick Jr., Gina Gershon, Jeffrey Dean
Morgan, Kathy Bates, James Marsters, and more.
