The Idea Of You<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0is now streaming on Prime Video, and you may be seeing a lot of comparisons to\u00a0Harry Styles<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The film stars\u00a0Anne Hathaway<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Nicholas Galitzine<\/strong>\u00a0as a magnetic couple who meet at Coachella and start a whirlwind romance. Many believe that\u00a0Nicholas<\/strong>\u2018 character, Hayes from the band August Moon, is based on\u00a0Harry<\/strong>.\u00a0Anne\u00a0<\/strong>portrays a woman taking her daughter to the music festival where Hayes and his band are performing.<\/p>\n

The book that inspired the film was written by\u00a0Robinne Lee<\/strong>, who in the past said the film does have a\u00a0Harry Styles<\/strong>\u00a0connection. When asked by\u00a0Vogue\u00a0if he inspired the piece, she said, \u201cInspired is a strong word.\u201d She did say \u201cthe seed was planted\u201d when she researched\u00a0One Direction<\/strong>\u00a0and noted that\u00a0Harry\u00a0<\/strong>might have\u00a0dated older women.<\/p>\n

Anne Hathaway<\/strong>\u00a0was asked two times if\u00a0Nicholas<\/strong>\u2018 character is inspired by\u00a0Harry Styles<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Anne<\/strong>\u00a0told\u00a0E! News, \u201cNo! Everyone needs to chill. Sorry, I probably shouldn\u2019t be that reactive about it. I just think no.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also told\u00a0Extra<\/em>, \u201cNo, just no.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nicholas\u00a0<\/strong>just told\u00a0People\u00a0about the comparisons, \u201cI like to distance myself from that comparison because I think Hayes is his own character and has his own struggles and wants and tastes, even in who he is as a musician.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cWe took tons of different references. I think the boy band as a whole was an amalgam of a lot of different artists and groups. I\u2019d love people to come to watch the movie with an open mind and embrace Hayes and August Moon, and maybe become fans of August Moon individually as well. I mean, there\u2019s some really, really catchy songs in the movie.\u201d<\/p>\n

The film is now streaming on Prime Video! Watch the trailer below.<\/p>\n
