‘Every Year After’ New Footage Revealed! Sparks Fly Between Percy & Sam
What To Know
- Prime Video is adapting Carley Fortune’s bestselling romance novel Every Summer After into a series titled Every Year After.
- The streamer has revealed the summer 2026 release date and photos.
- Prime’s “Obsession is in Session” provides the first footage of the series!
Get in the banana boat, Swooonies. We’re going to Barry’s Bay this summer! But first, we’re catching a first look at footage of Every Year After with Prime Video’s “Obsession is in Session” preview!
From The Summer I Turned Pretty to Off Campus, Prime Video is just getting started when it comes to romance book adaptations. This summer, another beloved romance book is headed to streamer: Carley Fortune’s Every Summer After. While the Prime Video adaptation will feature a significant change to the title, we’re thrilled to see Barry’s Bay come to life sooner than fans had expected. That’s right, the series, titled Every Year After instead of Every Summer After, will drop this summer.
Fortune published Every Summer After in 2022, and it quickly became a massive hit. She published One Golden Summer in 2025, which centers around an essential character in Every Summer After. “The thinking behind that was that Every Summer After was like too confining as a season for a series, and Every Year After allowed them to open this up to a broader story,” Fortune said when explaining the reasoning behind the name change to Swooon.
In July 2025, Prime Video revealed that Every Year After had found its main cast and kicked off production, and months later, the show created an official Instagram account to share behind-the-scenes looks, which you can find below. So, when will the first season be released? Keep reading for all the latest details about the Every Year After adaptation, including the official release date.
Is there a trailer for Every Year After?
At this time, there is no trailer for Every Year After. That said, Prime released first look footage of the Every Summer After adaptation during their “Obsession is in Session” teaser of multiple swoonworthy shows. During the video, which you can watch below, look out for Sam and Percy kissing at The Tavern, past Percy and Delilah grabbing ice cream, young Percy, Sam, and Charlie leaping into the lake, and present-day Percy and Chantel returning to Barry’s Bay. Our favorite moment? Sam tucking a strand of hair behind Percy’s ear during that sleepover scene.
When is Every Year After coming out?
Every Year After is officially hitting the streamer on June 10, 2026, just one month after Off Campus. Seeing as this is a summer romance, a 2026 summer premiere date sounds perfect to us! Along with the premiere date, Prime Video posted a first look at the series, friendship bracelets and all!

What is Every Year After about?
Every Year After will chronicle the events of Every Summer After. We’re not going to spoil the entire book for you, but Every Summer After is told over the course of six summers and one weekend. Persephone “Percy” Fraser made the biggest mistake of her life a decade ago, and she hasn’t been back to Barry’s Bay since.
When she gets a call that the mother of her first love, Sam Florek, has died, she returns to Barry’s Bay to pay her respects. When Percy sees Sam again, the dormant feelings between them resurface. This bittersweet reunion forces Percy and Sam to figure out exactly why their relationship fell apart and whether or not it can be pieced back together.

There are plenty of swoonworthy moments in Every Summer After, but there’s one particular moment that Fortune is set on keeping in the adaptation. “With Every Summer After, for me, that is, ‘You came home.’ When Sam says, ‘You came home,’ that is so, so important,” Fortune told Swooon.
Per the post-production coordinator’s LinkedIn, which eagle-eyed fans spotted, the series will consist of eight hour-long episodes. As for when they’ll arrive on Prime Video, production appears to still be underway, but we have more information below.
Who has been cast in Every Year After?

Will Every Year After adapt One Golden Summer?
Prime Video hasn’t confirmed whether or not One Golden Summer, which follows Charlie’s love story, will be adapted. Every Year After could incorporate One Golden Summer into a season of the show or give Charlie his own spinoff. “I mean, I would love to see Alice and Nan on the screen,” Fortune told Swooon.
