To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before on Netflix: Who’s who and how to watch
Noah Centineo and Lana Condor (Netflix)
In case you missed it, To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before is Netflix’s hit new movie—starring gay Twitter’s new crush Noah Centineo.
The film is based on a young adult novel by Jenny Han. The story follows young Lara Jean Covey, whose unsent love letters to all the boys she’s ever loved in life—five in total—mysteriously end up in the hands of the guys she wrote to.
Complicating an already awkward situation, Lara Jean is in love with her best friend and neighbour, Josh Sanderson, who also happens to be her sister Margot’s ex-boyfriend. Lara Jean ends up in a strange love quadrangle when she pretends to be in a relationship with school jock Peter Kavinsky, to make his ex jealous and simultaneously throw Josh off her scent.
You can imagine that the story gets pretty twisty as Lara Jean tries to keep up her fake relationship, hide her feelings for Josh from her sister, and she’s also got a pesky younger sister to contend with.
