According to a new article from the Los Angeles Times, Quibi, an upcoming mobile-based streaming platform created by Jeffrey Katzenberg and Meg Whitman, Paramount TV are developing a TV adaptation of the rom-com.

So what can we expect from the show? According to the official synopsis, the new series “follows a glib young online columnist and an oversexed advertising executive who both need to prove, once and for all, they’re capable of being monogamous. They soon discover, however, keeping a relationship is harder than Andie Anderson made it look!”

The series is in good hands too, because Guy Branum, who has previously worked on shows like The Mindy Project and Awkward, is writing the reboot. On Thursday (1 August) Branum tweeted about the news, assuring faithful fans that the series would do justice to the original film.

“We were all certain you could not make a good romantic comedy anymore because print media is dead and RomCom ladies have to work at magazines, but against the tides of history, Quibi & Paramount have agreed to let me re-write “How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days”, he wrote, before joking that “I will be observing and consulting numerous photos of shirtless Matthew McConaughey to properly research this task.”

Rom-com fans, rejoice: a How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days reboot is coming
