The actor who is playing Simon is how I imagined Nate looking like (minus the clothes), and the actor who is playing Nate is how I imagined Cooper looking like (with shorter hair). Addy is the only character who looks like how the book describes her.
@@kylefauntleroy5443 ME TOO. It’s such a visual representation of her claiming her sense of self, especially since her Mum and bf were slightly weirdly obsessed with it.
I’ve always imagined the characters like how they might look if you completed the 1/4 of their faces that are on the cover (at least on my book, not sure what version y’all have) with Bronwyn top left, Nate top right, Addy bottom right and Cooper bottom left
This is the first time I’ve actually read the book before it turns into a tv show and the way I’m so excited. We also better be getting the bayview four walking to Kids by MGMT scene.
Because its a such a hassle working with under 18s. since they need time for school and tutors, then they arent allowed to work very many hours ect ect. Its way easier working with over 18s.
I feel like Simon might narrate the show or at least part of the show, like he does in the beginning of the trailer because in the book he says, "I'm the omniscient narrator"
An old coworker of my mom's wrote the book... I remember talking to her (the writer - McManus) one day and her saying how cool it would be if they made a movie or tv show about One Of Us Is Lying. She seemed so excited about it. I'm very happy to see that dream finally become a reality :) I'll be watching!
I swear if they take one of my favorite books of all time and churn it into trashy dry teen drama I’m gonna cry. I’m skeptical of it’s gonna keep its mysterious and thrilling elements or not
It annoys me that some people have decided to not watch it just because of the cast; there is a reason they were cast that way and the reason is that they are amazing. The characters are more than just their looks, and their personalities is what makes them so iconic. This is my favourite book and has been turned into one of my favourite series and it the actors brought to life in a way I could have never imagined.
True! At first, I was a bit sad the characters did not look like their descriptions, but the chemistry the cast has makes up for it!! I actually really enjoyed this series.
I wonder if they will change the ending though, you know sometimes they do these kind of twists when an adaptation is happening. Btw The main cast looks awesome and ready to deliver 😼
The book was so compelling it had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I hope this stays true to it. Looks promising though! PS - NATEWYN FINALLY!!!!!
Have to say, the guy who played Simon was incredible, definitely the best actor on the show and I loved him in sing street😂 I was so happy I recognised him
Who wants the same ending of the book?? I mean, who read already knows the answer. It would be more interesting for readers if the show takes a different direction, so it could be its own thing, and anyone who watch the series and read the book after that would get the chance to be surprised again.
i hate to say this but nate looks like a wussy and is not at all giving the whole 'bad boy' vibe and i do not like it. he's blond, he doesn't even have a leather jacket and his hair is long. his character is nothing like the book describes him.
I remember reading this book back when I was a sophomore. This became my favorite of all time! Now that I’m a senior and about to graduate high school, this is something new to me; a show based on a book that I read!
I mean, listen, trailers are often kinda deceiving and don't do the material justice, so I am kind of hoping the acting will be better in the episodes. Also this definitely isn't really the casting I would have chosen (I have nothing against deviating from the source material but Nate's actor looks a lot better suited for Cooper) but at least Addy looks the part (wonder if they'll have her buzz off her hair in the show too (my money is on no). I'm genuinely not trying to be that person, it's mainly that I pictured everyone apart from maybe Addy looking way different. Bronwynn is, I guess, kinda close but she looks way too old (not sure how old the actress is). Also apparently she will already have a boyfriend on the show? I wonder what else they'll change.
@@mayjj3949 lol, that's just what everyone was saying in the commencts of the teaser. I can't find her actual age anywhere, but she definitely looks mid/late 20s
honestly i’m really excited for this. but… they look older than their supposed to be and if i’m correct, nate was supposed to be dark haired.. to me, addy is the only one who looks book accurate.
How i imagined the characters:- Browyn - brown haired with strong and intellectual personality which kinda matches with the show Cooper- a southern (cowboy) calm hearthrob with slightly blonde hair with brown eyes and tanned skin like a fictional gentleman (the actor is great but his presence felt more athletic) Nate- expected him look organized (a bit chad looking😂) like the leader of popular guys with dark brown gaur and ocean blue eyes Addy- very close to the actress but expected her to look more "soft looking" but she looks more fierce here and kinda baddie Simon- no words just perfect
i love this series so so so so much. did not expect anything from it, but i'm completely blown away. cannot wait for season 3. can we just fast forward to season 3??? aghhh
This is my favorite book. I really hope this show doesn’t disappoint. I’m already skeptical about how the casting looks nothing like how I imagined the characters to look:(
My thoughts!! The reason I want to watch the series is so the characters come to life but this is not how I pictured them😭even if their acting is outstanding it just won’t be how I imagined it
Just finished the book and even tho most of the cast isn’t what I imagined them to look like, I will still check it out for the Natewyn scenes coming to life❤️
all these comments complaining about cooper not being blonde... that’s not really relevant to his character? the show needed more diversity and that’s the most fitting character to choose imo
@@zeenali2243 yah I see that. Whenever I go into an adaptation I say to myself this is just the base idea not an exact replica. It helps a lot though even I get my expectations too high sometimes. Most recently with the I know what you did last summer reboot. Really disappointed in it
Why does copper not have a southern accent that is like one of the main things people point out about him, why does Nate look like how copper is described.
I loved the book and i still do. I was so excited to hear that they were making a series on it but i was pretty disappointed by how different they looked compared to how the books described them.
I’m actually currently reading the book right now (for English class), and I like it so far, only about 8 chapters in though Feel free to post spoilers in the reply section, I’m not the type of person to care about spoilers
It’s great I highly recommend reading the book. On that note if you’re someone who doesn’t like spoilers I would recommend not looking it up on the internet because the ending is mind blowing!
I hope this lives up to the book and has the same ending because the ending was so surprising and I loved it so much. I also hope that Addys redemption arch will be here because she was totally baddass in the book😋
I’m so hoping that they made it like the book and don’t make things up and I hope they have that scene where all three of them walk into school together with the song in the back ground
The actor who is playing Simon is how I imagined Nate looking like (minus the clothes), and the actor who is playing Nate is how I imagined Cooper looking like (with shorter hair). Addy is the only character who looks like how the book describes her.
yesss, at the first glance of the trailer, i literally knew in an instant which will be Addy 😂
Couldnt agree more!!
exactly
Brownwyn was supposed to be short 😭
that's what i thought
I really hope they stay true to the book… I’m very excited for this show the character are not really book accurate but it’s fine
Me too, I'm excited to see if this show will differ from the book in any way!
@@trinaq lol I want to see when addy cuts her hair!!
From what I'm seeing I highly doubt it
@@kylefauntleroy5443 ME TOO. It’s such a visual representation of her claiming her sense of self, especially since her Mum and bf were slightly weirdly obsessed with it.
Me too (: they better
noooo nate looks so different from how i imagined him 😭 and they didn’t give him a leather jacket???
He should look like how Simon looks 😭
I literally thought he was gonna be how Simon looks-
he gives such hardin scott vibes in the book. they casted his character so badly 😫😫
YEAH they literally gave it to Simon
fr tho 😭
So ready for Addys redemption arc. She was the best part of the book.
!!!!
addys's near ending part was so wild bro, im reading it several times bc i just couldn't believe what happened 😂
@@michellenatania2 You mean when Jake chased her through the forest?
fr!! she’s my fav out of the bayview four
YES ADDY WAS THE BEST
Addy is the only one who looks exactly like how I imagined her to look like
Yep
I'm watching it right now on PeacockTV
Same

We also better be getting the bayview four walking to Kids by MGMT scene.
YES
OMFG YES
Yes SAME
Do you recommend that we read the book before watching this?
Same
Wait. So you're telling nate is NOT dark haired?
Cooper in the books was supposed to look like the Nate in the show they messed up casting istg😭
addy is the only one that looks the way she was described
he is they just did him wrong
EXACTLY
IK NATE IS DARK HAIRED I CANT WATCH THIS WITH A BANANA BLONDE NATE BYE
Loved the book. Not at all how I imagined them. Why do must do teen dramas with older actors? It would be nice to have a younger cast for a change...
yeah totally or they could set the show in a college so it would make more sense with the actors ages
Because its a such a hassle working with under 18s. since they need time for school and tutors, then they arent allowed to work very many hours ect ect. Its way easier working with over 18s.
@@TKDDLJ09 But they could cast 18-20 yr olds who are still teens or yound adults who look young
@@aizhanborsoi9625 how old are they? They don't look much more than 25 to me.
That's why I always go back to Degrassi.
I feel like Simon might narrate the show or at least part of the show, like he does in the beginning of the trailer because in the book he says, "I'm the omniscient narrator"
I hope not his acting isn’t great
@@ayden6860 tf u talking about, mark mckenna is amazing. have u watched ¨wayne¨?

Ugh fr, and nate is NOT how i imagined him WHY IS HE BLONDE?!?! 😭😭
I won’t be able to watch it bcs of the casting. Totally ruined it for me already!
seriously though.
I was really excited but I feel like they showed more drama than the actual mystery which makes me skeptical
If they make some love triangle bs for Nate and bronwyn I WILL LOOSE IT. that’s was the best part of that book. They better not disappoint me
who would be the third person?

They kinda made one.😭

Except for Addi she is the only one who looks like she does in the book.

I think homecoming bcs isnt prom end of the year thing but YEAH SO EXCITED
One of the best shows on PeacockTV
WILL START CRYING RN NATEWYN IS COMING HOME TO ME!!!!!!!
One of the best shows on PeacockTV
They could have at least tried to make the girl who plays Bronwyn look like a high schooler
idk maybe that was on purpose? bronwynn always acted older than she really was
@@addie586 one thing is acting older and another is looking older
@@hot_salsa_dipping_sauce I’ve seen teens who look way older
She is 29 years old in real life. The actress really tried her best to look like a teen
i have a friend who looks almost exactly like her and she's 18
I wonder if they will change the ending though, you know sometimes they do these kind of twists when an adaptation is happening. Btw The main cast looks awesome and ready to deliver 😼
Really?
I hope they don't! SPOILERS
the core four being tight at the end is one of my fav things abt the book
TBH I'm nervous bc we all know how book adaptations can go. Fingers crossed!
Jacob elordi would have made a perfect Nate , I always imagined him playing Nate’s character
Honestly, I could see that, but with a bit brighter hair... like a brown or something...
The book was so compelling it had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I hope this stays true to it. Looks promising though!
PS - NATEWYN FINALLY!!!!!
Have to say, the guy who played Simon was incredible, definitely the best actor on the show and I loved him in sing street😂 I was so happy I recognised him
Agreed! Watch the first episode and immediately thought wow Simon is so handsome! Too bad he’s out early 😭
This was done in an excellent way, congratulations to both the actors and the people behind the scenes, really enjoyed your show!
i’m so unbelievably excited

he looks like a blonde guy that wants to be jughead jones
He looks so much more wimpier than what I expected 💀
I expected him to be one of those bad boys with dark hair. This casting was totally unexpected 😂
agreed
Why did they change Cooper’s whole race?! LIKE WHO THOUGHT OF THAT ONE!!

This is not how I pictured them 😭 still gonna watch it 🌟
Yeah Addy looks like I imagined she would but Nate looks completely different
I've just recently finished the book and hoping that this adaptation would give justice to it.
