Prime Video started the year hot with a few new releases, particularly the highly anticipated second season of Fallout, which arrived back at the end of 2025 but continued well into 2026. Following closely behind the critically acclaimed sci-fi show was a pair of superhero series, Invincible and The Boys, and while the latter will be back for another batch of episodes next year, the former has gone off the air for good. Prime Video is also the home of some of the biggest straight-to-streaming movies this year, and the streamer has been testing the waters this year in various genres. Prime Video’s swashbuckling epic, The Bluff, was a massive hit despite lukewarm reviews, and the same can be said for The Wrecking Crew, the original crime thriller starring Dave Bautista and Jason Momoa that smashed to the top of streaming charts.
Prime Video is the second-biggest streaming service in the world by subscriber number, and it maintains this status by continuously evolving to please fans of all genres. One of the more intriguing projects that’s been in development for the streamer is The Love Hypothesis, which was first teased back at the end of April as part of a larger initiative from Prime Video to focus on more YA-forward content. Claire Scanlon directed the film with a script from Sarah Rothschild — Lili Reinhart also stars alongside Nicholas Duvernay and Arty Froushan.
The Love Hypothesis is based on the popular romance novel of the same name written by Ali Hazelwood, which was originally published as Star Wars fanfiction about the romance between Kylo Ren (played by Adam Driver) and Rey (played by Daisy Ridley). Daisy Ridley’s husband, Tom Bateman, has even been tapped to play the lead role of Adam in the project, who is directly inspired by Kylo Ren. This afternoon, Prime Video finally confirmed that The Love Hypothesis will begin streaming on September 23. An official trailer is expected in the coming weeks.
Is Daisy Ridley’s Star Wars Movie Still Coming Out?
At the time of writing in June 2026, it’s unclear if Daisy Ridley’s Star Wars movie about the New Jedi Order will ever overcome its development hurdles and make it to the big screen. Both Ridley and director Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy have confirmed that the film is still in active development, but it’s been years since it was announced, and there seem to be no concrete plans to begin filming. Only time will tell if the New Jedi Order movie will suffer the same fate as The Hunt for Ben Solo, which was set to return Adam Driver to his role as Kylo Ren.
Check out The Love Hypothesis on Prime Video starting September 23.
