Lauren Graham is playing mom once again.
The Gilmore Girls star has been cast in the film adaptation of Colleen Hoover's 2022 novel Reminders of Him, Universal Pictures confirmed to E! News April 24.
The Parenthood actress will continue her reputation of playing strong matriarchs, as she takes on the role of Grace Landry, the mother of main character Kenna Rowan's late boyfriend Scotty and the grandmother and legal guardian of Kenna and Scotty's child, Diem.
Hoover shared her excitement about the casting news, sharing to her Facebook, "So there’s this… Lauren Graham as Grace in Reminders Of Him!"
As for who else will be starring in the upcoming flick, which is set to premiere in February 2026? Maika Monroe—who recently led the cast of horror smash Longlegs—is taking on the role of Kenna, a young mother trying to reunite with her 4-year-old daughter after being released from a five-year prison sentence due to a tragic accident. Meanwhile, Tell Me Lies' Tyriq Withers will play Ledger, Scotty's best friend and Kenna's eventual love interest, and Outer Banks' Rudy Pankow has been cast as Scotty.
The movie—which Vanessa Caswill is set to direct—is slated to start production this month and is one of three film adaptations in the works for Hoover following the 2024 film It Ends With Us starring Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. An adaptation of Regretting You is set to hit theaters in October of this year, while an adaptation of Verity is planned for a May 2026 release. Each movie was seen filming last month in Atlanta and New York City, respectively.
And Hoover has already shared her enthusiasm for the Dakota Johnson and Anne Hathaway led Verity.
"I just read the script," she said on an August episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen. “I’m super excited about it."
