Getting Celine Dion to star in a movie wasn’t easy.
Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor How did writer-director Jim Strouse get Celine Dion to play herself and write five new songs for his film “Love Again?” “It took months, maybe even a full year,” Strouse tells Variety. “There was a lot of thought, eating, letters and lookbooks.” The Sony feature-length stars Priyanka Chopra Jonas (Mira) and Sam Heughan (Rob) as depressed singles that meet in a not-so-ordinary way after inadvertently exchanging a series of intimate and embarrassing text messages. Dion makes her big-screen debut in the romantic comedy portraying a semi-fictionalized version of herself.
Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic We’ve all heard Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On,” but if you really listen to the lyrics — “Love can touch us one time, And last for a lifetime … Near, far, wherever you are / I believe that the heart does go on” — the tragedy they describe applies to more than just comely Rose learning to live without her blue-eyed cabin boy. Eighteen years after “Titanic” made her a mega-star, Dion lost her husband and manager, René Angélil, and the singer has made no secret of her struggle to move on since. An old-school, straight-faced studio romance featuring five new songs from Ms. Dion, writer-director Jim Strouse’s “Love Again” is all about such healing — to the extent that if it were a book instead of a movie, it would be filed in the self-help section. Liberally adapted from the 2016 German film “Texts for You” (“SMS für Dich”), the more-creepy-than-cute plot focuses on a grieving New York children’s book illustrator who sparks up a new relationship with the complete stranger who’s inherited her dead boyfriend’s phone number. “Truly, Madly, Deeply” this isn’t.
Is it mad libs, or is it just your typical wtf Playlist headline? But no, really, the idea behind Sony’s new romantic comedy “Love Again” is pretty incredible on many levels. For one, the plot: could a random text message lead to the love of your life? That’s the premise of “Love Again,” but the micro view is that the story is also about a journalist—“Outlander” star Sam Heughan who is seen as a heartthrob by many ladies—who ends up enlisting Celine Dion (yes, the real Celine Dion, playing herself for the first time ever) to find out the identity of a woman (Priyanka Chopra) sending texts to her dead fiancé.
