The 'Picture This' Trailer Is Picture Perfect

We first caught wind of Picture This, the romcom starring Bridgerton's Simone Ashley and Young Sherlock's Hero Fiennes Tiffen, just under a year ago in the spring of 2024. At the time, filming on the Prime Video movie, which was planned as a straight-to-streaming release, had concluded, and Ashley had mentioned in an interview that she expected out in 2024. But Amazon apparently had other ideas, and the year ended with the romantic comedy still in limbo. Valentine's Day came and went, and there was still no word on the rom-com, which seemed to have gone AWOL. However, finally, Picture This has not only released a trailer but announced Amazon Studios has finally assigned it a March release date, with the film arriving straight to streaming close to the start of the month.

Unlike Bridgerton, which shot Ashley to worldwide fame, or Young Sherlock, which will see Fiennes Tiffen play the titular sleuth in his 1850s era college years, Picture This is a contemporary-set film, allowing both actors to wear regular clothes and 21st-century hairstyles in 2020s era London. However, the story is timeless enough that it could have been set at any time in the last 100 years. Ashley will star as Pia, a down-on-her-luck career-focused singleton watching her siblings marry one after the other. After yet another wedding, she vows to find a mate in the next few dates, no matter what.

Naturally, Fiennes Tiffin is one of those dates... or at least the one she ends up marrying. (Listen, it’s a romantic comedy, but that’s not a spoiler; that’s a fact. A romance that does not have a happily ever after is not a romance. Come fight me.)
