Rosaline\u00a0<\/em>is not the only adaption of a classic tale in 2022. In July Netflix released a lighthearted adaption of Jane Austen’s persuasion – despite online criticism – starring Dakota Johnson. \u201cThis film is really trying to combine the modern day, because the book itself was so ahead of its time,” co-star Mia McKenna-Bruce told GRAZIA<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We suggest watching\u00a0Persuasion\u00a0<\/em>to whet your appetite before the release of\u00a0Rosaline.\u00a0<\/em>The new movie will release to Hulu for US viewers and on Disney+ for Australian audiences from October 14. Watch the trailer below.<\/p>\n
