Love of Your Life (2026) — Margaret Qualley’s Prime Video Romance
One chance encounter, a decade of consequences. Love of Your Life follows Maya (Margaret Qualley), a smart, wry Boston ER nurse whose life is swept up in a sweeping romance with Charlie (Gabriel Basso) — a future beyond anything she ever imagined.
When that future is suddenly upended, Maya is sent hurtling toward an unexpected new life: across nearly ten years of romance, sudden tragedy, a reinvention in Portugal as a digital nomad, and the heavy emotional weight of working through the March 2020 pandemic, she must figure out who she is, what she truly wants, and how to love again. Directed by Oscar-nominated cinematographer Rachel Morrison (her feature after The Fire Inside), written by Julia Cox in a script that sparked a Hollywood bidding war, and produced by Ryan Gosling alongside Jessie Henderson, this is the rare grown-up romance — sweeping but clear-eyed about the cost of running away to find yourself. Streams globally on Prime Video October 14, 2026.
