"It's like I woke up in the actor candy store. We've managed to assemble a dream cast of my favorite actors," said showrunner John Carney, per the Reporter. "It's a testament to the reach of the original column and of how, now more than ever, love is the only certainty."

The show will reportedly explore many forms of love, including familial, platonic, and self-love. Amazon Studios' Jennifer Salke said Modern Love is one way the streaming service is striving to find the "next big show that women ... can't stop talking about."
