Jenny Han’s work on “The Summer I Turned Pretty” as co-showrunner and creator will kick off the 2022 summer season. The first book in Han’s book trilogy was published in May of 2009, and now she’s adapting it into a longform TV series.
Known for her other smash hit the “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” trilogy, which was adapted into three films for Netflix starring Lana Condor, Han took more control with “The Summer I Turned Pretty.” The first season of the show has seven episodes, and the second season was also very recently greenlit for production.
