Over the years, we have seen many of Nicholas Sparks' novels adapted for the big screen and this summer sees The Longest Ride get a movie makeover.

The Longest Ride

The Longest Ride

If you are a lover of romance movies then The Longest Ride is one that you cannot miss this June - and a brand new clip for the film has been unveiled:

The Longest Ride novel was released back in 2013 and now Craig Bolotin has adapted it for the big screen, while George Tillman Jr is in the director's chair.

Tillman Jr has been behind movies such as Faster, Notorious, and Men of Honour, but The Longest Ride sees him tackle a romance/drama for the first time.

The Longest Ride follows two entwined love stories and sees Britt Robertson, Scott Eastwood, Jack Huston, and Oona Chaplin take on the central roles of Sophia, Luke, Ira, and Ruth.

Alan Alda, Melissa Benoist, Lolita Davidovich, Elea Oberon, and Kate Forbes make up a terrifically talented cast list.

The Longest Ride centres on the star-crossed love affair between Luke, a former champion bull rider looking to make a comeback, and Sophia, a college student who is about to embark upon her dream job in New York City's art world.

As conflicting paths and ideals test their relationship, Sophia and Luke make an unexpected and life altering connection with Ira, whose memories of his own decades-long romance with his beloved wife deeply inspire the young couple.

Spanning generations and two intertwining love stories, The Longest Ride explores the challenges and infinite rewards of enduring love.

Adaptations of Sparks' novels are movies that pull on your heart strings and bring a tear to your eye & we have had films such as The Notebook and Dear John over the years. If you love your epic romances then The Longest Ride is a movie that you cannot miss this summer.

The Longest Ride is released 19th June.
