Hulu Joey King Fights Back in Action-Packed Trailer for Violent Fairy Tale The Princess Last month, PEOPLE got a first look at photos from the film, which is based on Rebecca Serle's 2012 novel When You Were Mine and penned by (500) Days of Summer screenwriters Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber. Director Karen Maine told PEOPLE that the Rosaline character is "fearless, bucks tradition, and is unafraid to throw caution to the wind in order to get what she wants — or, at least, what she thinks she wants." "Rosaline is Romeo's whole world until he meets Juliet and, well, we all know what happens once those two cross paths," said Maine. She continued, "Rosaline is determined to break them up and get Romeo back any way she can, but communication in 16th century Italy isn't as easy as just picking up the phone, so she's forced to get creative." "Through her attempts, Rosaline discovers new truths about herself, friendship and what it really means to be in love," Maine explained. Rosaline (2022).
