Back in 2015, it was revealed that The CW was planning a TV series of the hit film.
In a new interview with TV Insider, Nicholas revealed what happened to the show.
He shared, “In 2016, I made the decision to pull away from television, essentially. It kind of went away, so to speak. Television was exciting, and it was interesting, but it was an awful lot of work and an awful lot of time. I had films, I had novels to write, I have five children, and there was just too much going on. Something had to go. I just made the decision of, why don’t we let the story of Allie and Noah exist in a novel and film? Around that time, as well, I decided the best way to move forward would be maybe to do a Broadway show, which is what we’ve done.”
He was then asked if he’d ever consider a TV series of the film in the future.
He responded, “Perhaps. I mean, it would be tough. There are questions. It’s like, what do we want to cover? Do we want to cover from the reunion until they’re old? How are people going to feel if it’s not Ryan and Rachel playing those roles? You say, okay, well, maybe it’s not just them. Maybe we focus more on their children. Okay, that’s another option. It’s complicated. I wouldn’t necessarily mind if it ended up getting made, as long as it was as high quality as the film.”

I think about the walls of theaters all over this magical town holding the impact of each and every one of you in this room, and all of those who came before and I think how lucky those walls are to bear witness to the relentless interrogation of human experience that we endeavor to explore nightly for each other, to give back to one another with the hope of finding some shared path towards the truth about being alive. This is the heart and soul of what we do, and I am so honored to be amongst you.”
