‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’ Creator Jenny Han on Giving the ‘Gift’ of Taylor Swift Songs to Fans (Video)

Han and star Lola Tung also tell TheWrap about the Prime Video show’s central love triangle

Prime Video’s “The Summer I Turned Pretty” is set to make a splash, and maybe even some waves, with author Jenny Han having adapted the first book of her beloved trilogy into a new TV series — which has already been renewed for a second season. And while the book was first published in 2009, Han delighted in revisiting — and changing — her original story.

“It’s such a delight to be able to revisit the story that I told so long ago and think, ‘Okay, what would I do differently? What would I do the same? How different does it feel to tell the story in 2022?’” Han said in a recent interview with TheWrap.
