Netflix's One Day reveals first look at Ambika Mod and Leo Woodall
Our first glimpse at the streamer's adaptation of David Nicholls's novel.
Details of Netflix's adaptation of David Nicholls's novel One Day have been far and few between.
But today, the streamer unveiled some first-look images from the drama, which features Ambika Mod (This Is Going to Hurt) and Leo Woodall (The White Lotus) as star-crossed lovers Emma Morley and Dexter Mayhew.
For those who haven't read the book, or watched the film of the same name starring Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess, the story follows Em and Dex, catching up with them on the same day every year after the first time they speak upon graduating from Edinburgh University in 1988.
Netflix recently shared the first-look images of the pair on social media, with the post confirming the series's release date: 8th February. Just in time for Valentine's Day.
As well as Mod and Woodall, the One Day cast features Poldark's Eleanor Tomlinson, who is currently starring in The Couple Next Door and who will play Dex's wife Sylvie.

Mod had previously told RadioTimes.com that the series will be able to dedicate "more time" to the events of the book.

"I really enjoyed the film, but I think a lot of people felt that – and I would agree – that an hour-and-a-half movie isn't usually enough to dedicate to this epic novel that spans 20 years," she explained.
"So, hopefully, in our series we’ll be able to cover more ground and sort of zoom in on the story with more detail… I think the way that our writers are going about it is really beautiful, and hopefully people will just be able to see more of the book in the series."
