Amazon Prime has released a trailer for new half-hour romantic comedy series Modern Love, which premieres with a star-studded cast on 18th October 2019.

Inspired by the popular New York Times column of the same name, the series explores love in all of its complicated and beautiful forms, as each standalone episode brings some of the column’s most beloved stories to life with a stellar cast.

They are not joking about the cast… With each story focusing on different people for each episode, that has allowed them to recruit a huge array of talent for the series. Among the stars are Academy Award winner Anne Hathaway (‘Ocean’s Eight’), Academy Award nominee Catherine Keener (‘Get Out’), Emmy Award winner Tina Fey (’30 Rock’), Tony Award winner John Gallagher, Jr. (‘The Newsroom’), Academy Award nominee Andy Garcia (‘Ocean’s Eleven’), Academy Award nominee Dev Patel (‘Lion’), Emmy Award nominee Brandon Victor Dixon (‘Power’), Emmy Award nominee Julia Garner (‘Ozark’), Emmy Award nominee John Slattery (‘Mad Men’), Jane Alexander (‘The Good Fight’), Sofia Boutella (‘Kingsman: The Secret Service’), Gary Carr (‘The Deuce’, ‘Downton Abbey’), Olivia Cooke (‘Ready Player One’), Brandon Kyle Goodman (‘Plus One’), Caitlin McGee (‘Bluff City Law’), Cristin Milioti (‘Black Mirror’), Laurentiu Possa (‘Killing Eve’), James Saito (‘Always Be My Maybe’), Shea Whigham (‘Homecoming’) and the always fabulous Andrew Scott (‘Fleabag’, ‘Sherlock’).

John Carney (‘Once’, ‘Sing Street’) serves as writer, director and executive producer. Additionally, Sharon Horgan (‘Catastrophe’, ‘Divorce’), Tom Hall (‘Sensation’) and Emmy Rossum (‘Shameless’), directed episodes of the series. Horgan directed the Tina Fey-John Slattery led episode, which she also penned. Hall also wrote his episode and Rossum will direct an episode written by the late Audrey Wells (‘Under the Tuscan Sun’, ‘The Hate U Give’).

Todd Hoffman executive produces alongside Carney and Trish Hofmann serves as co-executive producer. Sam Dolnick and Choire Sicha of The New York Times also serve as executive producers and Modern Love column editor Daniel Jones serves as consulting producer. The series is produced by Amazon Studios, Storied Media Group and The New York Times.

Modern Love‘ premieres on Amazon Prime in the UK and around the world on Friday, 18th October 2019.
