🎬 To All the Boys: Always and Forever (2026)

Review: A Journey of Love, Commitment, and Growing Up

“The letters are packed away—but the vows are just being written.” The To All the Boys series returns with Always and Forever (2026), a heartwarming and nostalgic chapter in the lives of Lara Jean (played by Lana Condor) and Peter Kavinsky (played by Noah Centineo). After navigating the highs and lows of their teenage romance, the couple now faces the challenges of young adulthood, balancing their love for each other with their budding careers and the pressures of life in New York City.

The plot kicks off with Peter’s heartfelt proposal, which sets the stage for a wedding filled with love, excitement, and unexpected tension. While Lara Jean is ready to start this new chapter, she has a vision of a small, intimate ceremony—one that reflects her personality and dreams. However, her family, the Coveys and the Kavinskys, have a different idea: a grand celebration full of extravagance, family drama, and a hefty dose of wedding planning chaos.

The return of Kitty (played by Anna Cathcart) as the brutally honest maid of honor adds a layer of humor to the proceedings, as she continues to offer her unsolicited advice, perfectly timed K-beauty tips, and hilarious commentary from abroad. Her presence is both a grounding force and a source of comedic relief, keeping the mood light while Lara Jean wrestles with her insecurities about the “perfect” wedding.

As the story unfolds, Lara Jean finds herself questioning what it truly means to have a “perfect” life and “perfect” wedding. The film explores her insecurities and the messy realities of adulting—navigating love, family, and her evolving relationship with Peter. Lara Jean and Peter’s dynamic continues to evolve as they try to figure out what it means to love, commit, and face the future together, despite the unexpected obstacles they encounter along the way.

Through sweet moments, stylish wedding montages, and even some baking sessions, To All the Boys: Always and Forever perfectly captures the beauty of growing up, with all the joy and messiness that comes with it. The film delves deeper into the importance of family and staying true to oneself, all while finding love in a world that doesn’t always turn out the way we expect.

The film doesn’t shy away from the reality that life after “I do” can be complicated, but it also celebrates the power of finding your own path, on your own terms. The chemistry between Lana Condor and Noah Centineo is as heartwarming as ever, and the film captures the essence of what it means to love, grow, and evolve together as a couple.

To All the Boys: Always and Forever is the perfect mix of humor, heart, and real-world challenges.
