Halle Bailey and Rege-Jean Page star in a new rom-com, You Me & Tuscany, coming to cinemas in April next year.
According to the synopsis, “one little lie, one large Italian villa and two people getting lost in the sauce of love.” Halle plays Anna, a 20-something who walked away from her dream of becoming a chef. After crossing paths with Matteo, who happens to have a vacant villa in Tuscany, she decides to head to Italy.”
The film is directed by Kat Coiro, who has helmed other projects such as Marry Me, Girls5eva, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, and Matlock.
Halle Bailey (The Little Mermaid, The Colour Purple) stars as Anna, a young woman who has abandoned her dreams of becoming a chef. When Anna has a chance encounter with Matteo, a handsome Italian who happens to have a villa sitting empty in Tuscany, it will inspire her to set off to Italy.
But Anna’s plan to crash at Matteo’s villa, without permission, just for one night, falls apart when Matteo’s mother, Gabriella (Isabella Ferrari) shows up at the house unexpectedly. In a panic, Anna mistakenly and hilariously lets Gabriella believe that she is Matteo’s fiancée.
In comes Matteo’s cousin, Michael (Regé-Jean Page; Bridgerton, Black Bag), who is instantly attracted to Anna, and so hijinks no doubt ensue. The film’s additional cast includes Lorenzo de Moor (The Legend Hunters) as Matteo, Marco Calvani (The Four Seasons) as an Italian taxi driver who befriends Anna and Academy Award® nominee Nia Vardalos (My Big Fat Greek Wedding) as Mrs. Dunn.
The trailer showcases the beauty of Tuscany and, of course, the two charismatic leads, Page and Bailey, who look the part. With a talented team behind the camera, there is no doubt that this will be one to watch!
You, Me & Tuscany releases in Australia April 9, 2026.
