Reminders of Him” arrives in theaters March 13, adapted from the pages of a best-selling novel. It tells a powerful story of love, loss, and the hope of redemption. Based on the #1 New York Times bestselling novel by Colleen Hoover, this feature film adaptation promises to be a moving experience for longtime fans and newcomers alike.
A Story of Loss, Love and Forgiveness
In small-town Wyoming, Kenna (Maika Monroe) faces life-altering tragedy. Following a tragic accident after a seemingly perfect night with her boyfriend Scotty (Rudy Pankow, Outer Banks), Kenna is sent to prison. One mistake costs her years in prison and the chance to meet her daughter.
Now, seven years later, Kenna returns home with one goal: to reconnect with her daughter, Diem. But forgiveness isn’t easily granted — especially by Diem’s grandparents, Grace and Patrick (played by beloved screen icons Lauren Graham and Bradley Whitford), who have raised the little girl in Kenna’s absence.
Blocked at every turn, Kenna finds an unexpected ally — and something even deeper — in Ledger (played by Tyriq Withers, HIM, I Know What You Did Last Summer), a former NFL player turned bar owner who shares a complicated connection to Kenna’s past. As their secret romance grows, Kenna must fight for love and the chance to be a mother.
A Powerhouse Cast and Creative Team
“Reminders of Him” boasts a rich ensemble of talent, bringing emotional depth and complexity to every role. Alongside Monroe, Withers, Graham, Whitford, and Pankow, the cast includes:
- Lainey Wilson (Yellowstone) in a warm, grounded turn as Kenna’s coworker and friend, Amy.
- Jennifer Robertson (Schitt’s Creek) as Kenna’s landlord.
- Zoe Kosovic as young Diem.
- Hilary Jardine and Nicholas Duvernay as members of Ledger’s bar team.
- Monika Myers, in her screen debut, as Kenna’s quirky and insightful neighbor, Lady Diana.
