La Dolce Villa 2025 Movie Review Trailer Poster

 Netflix has announced the global premiere of its latest romantic comedy, La Dolce Villa, which will premiere just in time for Valentine’s Day on Thursday, February 13, 2025. Directed by Mark Waters, the film promises a heartwarming mix of humor, romance, and the irresistible charm of Italy.


Netflix’s La Dolce Villa, first publicly announced in April 2024, is directed by Mark Waters, whose credits include Mean Girls, Vampire Academy, Mr. Popper’s Penguins, and more. This is Waters’ third major film for Netflix, having collaborated with the streaming service on He’s All That, released in August 2021, and Brookes Shileld’s upcoming romantic comedy Mother of the Bride, due out in May 2024.

Director: Mark Waters
Writers: Elizabeth Hackett, Hilary Galanoy
Stars: Scott Foley, Violante Placido, Maia Reficco

The premise is one we can all certainly relate to: idealistic Olivia (Maia Reficco) buys a rundown villa in the Italian countryside for one euro, as part of a plan to revitalize the quaint rural town. Her father, an uptight consultant named Eric (Scott Foley), flies into town to change her mind. However, upon meeting the town’s mayor, Francesca (Violante Placido), it becomes clear that Eric, who we learn used to be a chef (he points to the olive oil drizzled over a caprese salad) may have his own project to tackle. “It’s never too late to revamp your life,” the trailer assures viewers.


The screenplay was written by Elizabeth Hackett and Hilary Galanoy (A Perfect Pairing, Falling Inn Love). La Dolce Villa is produced by Robyn Snyder, Deborah Evans and Nicola Rosada. Hackett and Galanoy are executive producers. Front Row Films and Dae Light Media are behind the feature film.


La Dolce Villa features an ensemble cast, including Scott Foley (Scandal), Violante Placido (The American), rising star Maia Reficco (Do Revenge) and Giuseppe Futia. The film is written by the screenwriting duo Elizabeth Hackett and Hilary Galanoy, who also serve as executive producers. Robyn Snyder and Deborah Evans round out the production team as producers, bringing their expertise to this captivating project.


The film’s official synopsis teases a tale of self-discovery and romance: “Successful businessman Eric travels to Italy to stop his dreamy daughter Olivia from restoring a crumbling villa. However, Italy has other plans for him as it fulfills its legendary promise of beauty, magic and romance.” Set against the backdrop of picturesque Italian landscapes, the film explores the power of love and the unexpected twists and turns life throws at it.

The Hunting Wives 2025 Tv Series Review Trailer Poster

Netflix has become a haven for shows about small towns rocked by crime. Last week, we premiered Untamed, where the residents of a town in Yosemite National Park became embroiled in a murder mystery after a girl fell from El Capitan. The show dealt heavily with grief, suicidal tendencies, abusive men, and the colonialists' negative feelings toward the Indigenous community. The Glass Dome told the story of a criminal psychologist who returned to her hometown to attend her stepmother's funeral and found herself involved in investigating a series of murders seemingly connected to her past.  Hound's Hill centered on a Polish author who returned to his hometown to come to terms with a crime he may have committed, only to discover that a serial killer is on the loose, killing the perpetrators—and his name could be next on the list. So, yes, when I watched The Hunting Wives, I completely understood why Netflix bought the rights to this show. What confuses me is, who is this series ...
