The Best Romantic Movies Out To Steal Your Heart In 2020

Love isn’t dead—at least onscreen

February 14, 2020

If you loved Titanic not so much for James Cameron’s cutting-edge special effects but for what Rose and Jack did in that foggy antique Coup de Ville, and if you’re holding out in real life for an admirer who will attack your face in the same way Noah did Allie in the pouring rain, then you, my friend, are a hopeless romantic. These films, from tales of young unadulterated love to sizzling stories of unbridled passion, are your perfect match.

Keep an eye out as the months go by; we’ll be updating this list with more romantic films as news of their releases become known.

The Best Romantic Movies Out To Steal Your Heart In 2020
The Photograph
image

The Photograph

With recent romantic roles in films including Someone Great, The Incredible Jessica James, and Izzy Gets the F*ck Across Town, LaKeith Stanfield has kind of become the male equivalent to America’s sweetheart—America’s sweet-stud if you will. The Photograph, which costars Insecure boss lady Issa Rae with none of the insecurities, offers parallel love stories—and we hear there’s even a plot twist. Look for it: February 14 Photo: Universal
Premature

Premature

Shot in Harlem, Premature follows Ayanna (Zora Howard), 17 years old and on the cusp of leaving for college, as she falls for Isaiah (Joshua Boone), a handsome suitor who’s keeping his cards close to his chest. A coming-of-age narrative elevated with an astute script from the film’s leading lady, Howard, and director, Rashaad Ernesto Green, it’s sitting at a fresh 94 percent out of last year’s festival circuit. Look for it: February 21 Photo: IFC
Stargirl
image

Stargirl

The ukulele wunderkind who won America’s Got Talent when she was 12 is now starring in a YA romance destined for the Disney+ streaming platform. Grace VanderWaal, now 16, and Graham Verchere, from The Good Doctor, are headlining the adaptation borrowed from the literary award-winning novel about two students who learn more about themselves by learning more about each other. Look for it: March 20 Photo: Disney
After We Collided

After We Collided

After, the steamy romance film based on a novel that was based on some Harry Styles fan fiction—and if you remember, was touted as the Fifty Shades of Grey for the millennial set—didn’t go over too well with the critics. But that isn’t stopping producers from cashing in on a seductive sequel that catches up with lovers Tessa and Hardin. And it certainly isn’t stopping us from checking it out. Look for it: Sometime in 2020 Photo: Quantrell D. Colbert / Avron
In the Heights

In the Heights

Though you won’t find In the Heights necessarily nuzzled between John Green’s young-adult love stories and Nicholas Sparks’s saccharine romance adaptations, you will find love and romance and soul within this music-filled barrio. Jon M. Chu (Step Up 2, Crazy Rich Asians) is directing, and Lin-Manuel Miranda has supplied the script and soundtrack, so summer can just get here already. Look for it: June 26 Photo: Macal Polay / Warner Bros.
Chemical Hearts
image

Chemical Hearts

Riverdale star Lili Reinhart is the leading lady and leading heart-stealer in Chemical Hearts, a film adaptation based on Krystal Sutherland’s best-selling book Our Chemical Hearts. A campus romance about love, passion, and journalism, it’s an Amazon Studios release that costars relative newcomer Austin Abrams. Reinhart is also executive-producing for the first time. Look for it: Sometime in 2020 Photo: Gilbert Carrasquillo / Getty
Ammonite
image

Ammonite

Ammonites are mollusks with spiraled shells that slightly resemble the coiled gastropods snails carry around. Now, just how to apply that metaphor—if at all—to this LGBTQ period film starring Kate Winslet as a Victorian-era fossil hunter and Saoirse Ronan as her love interest, we’re not entirely sure. But two things: Francis Lee, the auteur behind God’s Own Country, is helming. Count us in. Look for it: Sometime in 2020 Photo: See Saw Films
West Side Story

West Side Story

Not that West Side Story—a Tony-winning musical born on Broadway in the ‘50s—needs help boosting its image, but the 2020 reboot of the enduring production has some mega-watt star power behind it: Blockbuster director Steven Spielberg is helming, and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tony Kushner is penning the screenplay. Word is the pair are crafting a modern adaptation of the star-crossed tale of Jets and Sharks, and Ansel Elgort and total newbie Rachel Zegler are your stars. Look for it: December 18 Photo: Ramona Rosales / 20th Century Fox
