The movie Regretting You, based on the popular novel by Colleen Hoover and featuring McKenna Grace, has become a big hit on streaming platforms after a successful run in theaters. The film, which also stars Allison Williams, Mason Thames, and Dave Franco, was released in October 2025 and earned around $90 million worldwide.
Directed by Josh Boone, known for The Fault in Our Stars, Regretting You centers on Morgan and Clara. Their relationship strains after the unexpected death of Morgan’s husband and Clara’s father, Chris, and Morgan’s sister, Jenny. The film delves into how grief, long-held resentments, and family trauma affect their lives and make it hard for them to find their way back to each other.
Despite receiving mostly negative reviews, the film Regretting You has quickly become popular on demand and through streaming services. It’s currently the most-watched movie on Paramount+ in the United States, with Roofman and Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning rounding out the top three. Other popular titles on the streaming platform include A Paw Patrol Christmas, Paw Patrol: Super Charged, Top Gun: Maverick, Paw Patrol: Ready, Race, Rescue, and The Painter.
Despite making a profit at the box office – earning much more than its $25 million production cost – the movie received negative reviews from critics. Rotten Tomatoes shows a critics’ score of around 27% based on 88 reviews. Luckily, general audiences enjoyed it much more, giving it an 85% rating on the site.
Although Regretting You didn’t quite reach the massive box office success of It Ends With Us (which earned over $350 million worldwide on a $25 million budget), it’s still proven to be another successful movie based on a Colleen Hoover novel. Fans can look forward to film adaptations of Reminders of Him and Verity, both scheduled for release in 2026, and these are also anticipated to do well in theaters.
As a movie lover, it’s really interesting to see how films like Regretting You are finding an audience through streaming. It shows we’re not just going to theaters anymore – we’re watching movies everywhere! While box office numbers still matter, streaming is becoming just as important for a movie’s success. In fact, some films, like Suicide Squad, Encanto, and even The Nice Guys from a few years back, actually did better on streaming than they did in theaters. It’s a big shift in how we experience movies, and it’s exciting to see films find their audience in new ways.
Both Reminders of Him, featuring Maika Monroe, Tyriq Withers, and Bradley Whitford, and Verity, starring Anne Hathaway, Dakota Johnson, and Josh Hartnett, are scheduled for release in 2026. Reminders of Him will premiere on March 13th, while Verity will be in theaters on October 2nd. Though films based on Colleen Hoover’s books have proven popular with audiences, it’s still uncertain if future adaptations will receive positive reviews from critics.
The success of Regretting You on Paramount+ shows there’s a large audience for stories adapted from books, and suggests viewers are excited for more films based on Colleen Hoover’s work. In today’s streaming landscape, Regretting You proves that a movie doesn’t need great reviews to become popular with audiences.
Regretting You is available for streaming on Paramount+.
