The New York Times bestseller, TikTok sensation and internationally beloved phenomenon, Boys Of Tommen, is the latest book to screen adaptation. Moreover, it comes from Prime Video.
Prime Video has announced the commissioning of Boys of Tommen, a sweeping romantic drama series inspired by the #1 New York Times bestselling series by Irish author Chloe Walsh. This series has become a sensation on BookTok. The emotionally powerful story has captivated readers worldwide with its unforgettable characters and intensely romantic storyline. Now, alongside the producers of The Summer I Turned Pretty, One Day and Twilight, Prime Video will bring it to screen.
SERIES ONE
Series one is based on the first two novels in Chloe Walsh’s best-selling series, Binding 13 and Keeping 13. It is adapted by Poppy Cogan (A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder). It follows the forbidden love story of Johnny Kavanagh, the star rugby player on the verge of a pro career, and Shannon Lynch, the talented but painfully shy new girl at the prestigious private school of Tommen College in Ballylaggin, Ireland. Both teenagers are hiding secrets; Johnny, a potentially career-ending injury and Shannon, a troubled and violent home life. Through their secret and highly charged connection, the two teens from opposite worlds battle against the odds. Eventually, they find a way to save each other.
Boys of Tommen will premiere exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide as part of Amazon MGM Studios’ expanding global slate of premium international scripted series, extending the studio’s bold storytelling across genres and formats.
