Modern Love is a Prime Video anthology series inspired by The New York Times column of the same name. The first season featured star turns from the likes of Anne Hathaway, Tina Fey, and Dev Patel. In Season 2, showrunner John Carney gets to infuse a bit more of his native Irish sensibility into the series. At least, in the third episode, "Strangers on a Train." The 35 minute love story is based on a short column written during the height of the pandemic about a meet cute undone by the effects of the COVID-19 lockdown.
Carney reinvents the story using film references, musical interludes, and Ireland as a setting. It is, as fans of Once and Sing Street, will note, the first time John Carney has gone full "John Carney" in the anthology. Harington calls the change "a breath of fresh air." He also tells The Associated Press he wanted to sign on after cracking up at a "Game of Thrones" joke in the script. The Amazon Prime Video series based on The New York Times column about real-life love stories debuts its second season on Friday.
If you're a fan of romance, then you're in for a treat because the second season of Modern Love is out with its collection of short stories about love and all that it entails. Based on a weekly column published in The New York Times, the anthology series tell real love stories about real-life couples in New York City. Each love story tackles a different facet of love, be it sexual love or even self-love. The cast includes Kit Harrington, Lucy Boynton, Tom Burke, Aparna Nancherla, Garrett Hedlund, and Anna Paquin amongst others. Once you've already gone through the eight short stories featured in the series, take a look at our list of romantic anthologies that will take you on a similar toe-curlingly sweet trip of romance and love with their stories. Kit Harington appears in Season 2 of Amazon's Modern Love as a man who meets his dream girl on a train.
The pair makes plans to meet up two weeks later, but then the COVID-19 pandemic hits and subsequently foils their date — which is especially unfortunate as they didn't exchange numbers. The Game of Thrones star is adorable and electric, making a strong case for a rom-com franchise of his own in the sixth episode of the season, Train. Lucy Boynton, too, makes it instantly believable why someone would fall hopelessly in love with her over a short train ride.
It's the meet cute of most romantic kind as a techie and a medievalist bump into each other. There are impromptu songs, some stoner comedy, a lot of witty dialogue and what's best is that it's all set in the earliest days of the coronavirus pandemic. The two, on their way back home on the cusp of a lockdown, decide to meet at the railway station two weeks later, giving each other not their phone numbers, but a chance at an old-school romance. However, the pandemic obviously had a longer stay in mind when it came visiting, without much concern for any cute love stories it may have destroyed.
If you haven't watched the first season of the anthology series already, you should get to it right away. Through eight episodes, the show introduces us to the many forms of love, including sexual, platonic, romantic, and self-love. For instance, there's the story of a long-married couple who find themselves wondering if they're even in love anymore and one where a lawyer struggling with bipolar disorder tries to deal with the highs and lows of her daily life. The first season had a star-studded cast with stories headlined by actors like Anne Hathaway, Tina Fey, Dev Patel, John Slattery, Christian Milioti, Andy Garcia, Catherine Keener, Ed Sheeran, and Andrew Scott. Now Harington has hung up his bulky black fur coat for a lighter role on the new season of "Modern Love," based on the New York Times column on real love stories.
Harrington now wears a bulky black fur coat for a light role in the new season of "Modern Love," based on the New York Times column on a real-life love story. They haven't spoken for a while though, as they don't live in the same country, and as of August 13—the day Modern Love Season 2 lands on Amazon Prime—Cecilia has yet to tell him their little love story is going to be in a TV show. Now Harington has hung up his bulky black fur coat for a lighter role in the new season of "Modern Love," based on The New York Times column about real-life love stories.
Directed by debutant Venkatesh Maha, the critically-acclaimed Telugu film is a slice of life anthology drama focussed on four couples in the small town of Kancharapalem. The fact that the majority of the cast comprises locals from the town of Kancharapalem in Vizag just adds to the movie's simplicity and authenticity. This anthology series explores love in all of its complicated and beautiful forms.
Each episode brings to life a different story that has been inspired by the New York Times's popular Modern Love column. A collection of stories about relationships, connections, betrayals and revelations. Each of the ten short films in the romantic-comedy anthology film is by a different director, including Mira Nair, Jiang Wen, Natalie Portman, Brett Ratner and Shekhar Kapur. The stories are set in and around the five boroughs of New York City and revolve around the theme of love. It's considered to be a spiritual successor to Paris, Je T'aime , another anthology film revolving around love and romance set in Paris.
The ensemble cast includes Bradley Cooper, Shia LaBeouf, Natalie Portman, Hayden Christensen, Orlando Bloom, Irrfan Khan, Rachel Bilson, Chris Cooper, Andy Garcia, Christina Ricci, John Hurt, Ethan Hawke and Robin Wright. Honestly, I'm such an advocate of the anthology to other actors. It's set somewhere between a short film and an indie movie, it's in a little box by itself and it's a very satisfying thing to do.
I think after eight years of playing one character in a long-running TV show, it's a very appealing thing for me to do. There's a reason I did Criminal, there's a reason I did Modern Love. There is a reason I'm going to go on and do another anthology piece after this. It just allows me to stretch different sides of myself in a very contained way. Amazon Prime's anthology comedy series, created by John Carney ("Sing Street") and based on the New York Times column, features Anna Paquin, Minnie Driver and Garrett Hedlund in its second season .
The third episode follows two attractive strangers named Michael and Paula , who strike up a conversation on a train in Ireland, which is preparing for a two-week lockdown at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Being hopeless romantics, they forego exchanging phone numbers and simply decide to meet again at the same train station two weeks later, once the shutdown is "over." Modern Love is famed for bringing together some very famous actors to perform in an anthology series based on a newspaper column. Every story is completely separate, starring wholly new people and following a different story. Two years later, Modern Love returns with eight new, more relatable stories inspired by the popular The New York Times column, about love in New York City. Of course, the short, 30-minute runtime helps when the stinkier ones arrive, but it also feels like a tragically small time when you want to watch more of Kit Harington and Lucy Boynton's Before Sunrise-but-make-it-Edgar Wright love story.
Modern Love explores "love in its multitude of forms – including sexual, romantic, familial, platonic, and self love," which are presented in eight half-hour episodes. The Amazon series, based on the New York Times column of the same name, adapts different love stories taking place in New York City. Amazon Prime Video's romantic comedy anthology series is back for another go following season 1's well-received effort buoyed by Anne Hathaway. In season 2, Harington is head over heels for his dream girl, played by Lucy Boynton. Game of Thrones stars have spread their wings and have made their mark in the film-making industry with their amazing talent.
We can find them regularly appearing on other popular shows and films, providing the fans with a nostalgic and warm feeling from their time on Game of Thrones. Richard Madden and Kit Harington have been cast in important roles in Marvel Cinematic Universe's upcoming movie Eternels. Their co-star Emilia Clarke will soon be joining them in a yet non-disclosed role in Marvel's Secret Invasion. Jacob Anderson has also been stirring up the internet recently with his new roles. A few weeks ago, Anderson made headlines when he joined the cast of Doctor Who in a recurring role.
This time, he is in the news for being selected as the lead for AMC's adaptation of Anne Rice's Gothic vampire novel Interview With the Vampire. Harington's episode of Modern Love, which aired on Friday, Aug. 13, was titled "Strangers on a Train." The anthology series put Harington's character Michael on a train, where he meets a medievalist named Paula . In the episode, he ends up telling his bro Declan about the chance meet-cute, and that's where the glorious joke comes in. Asking about what she's into, Declan says, "OK. So, like Game of Thrones and stuff?" Michael was not a fan of the reference, but Harington himself says he actually loved the joke. Born in London's Acton neighborhood in 1986, Harington made his acting debut with the lead role of Albert Narracott in the acclaimed 2008 West End production of War Horse. After starring in another English play called Posh, he landed his television debut as Jon Snow in HBO's Game of Thrones, which ran for eight seasons and singlehandedly elevated his career to A-list status.
While Harington's character offers up a frustrated stare in response, the 34-year-old actor tells E! News that the line is actually the reason he signed on for Modern Love's new season. "No, that was in the script," he says on whether the moment was improvised by Reynor. "And it's one of the main reasons I did the piece. You know, I read that and I pissed myself laughing."

With its languid pacing and diverse cast, the show attempts to demystify sex and complex relationships one short vignette at a time.
