The New Netflix Series “XO, Kitty” Starring Anna Cathcart Finally Has A Trailer, And Here’s Everything You Need To Know

It’s no secret that there is a TON of great TV in 2023. There are so many good shows returning and premiering this year, and one of the ones I’m excited for is XO, Kitty.

Now, I’m always a sucker for a good Jenny Han romance — I mean, The Summer I Turned Pretty was one of my favorite shows last year — so I’m really excited to return to the To All the Boys world with this series.

Before we get into more about the show, the cast, and everything in between, below is the first trailer:

Jeon Ho-Young played Dae in To All the Boys: Always and Forever, with Minyeong Choi taking over the role for the series.

And in case you’re wondering, it has been about four years since we last saw Kitty in To All the Boys: Always and Forever, so she’s done a lot of growing up — and a lot of talking to Dae as pen pals in the meantime.

Alongside Anna and Minyeong, the series stars Gia Kim, Sang Heon Lee, Anthony Keyvan, Peter Thurnwald, Yunjin Kim, Jocelyn Shelfo, Michael K. Lee, Théo Augier, Regan Aliyah, and more, as some of the new friends, students, and teachers at KISS with Kitty.

Also, John Corbett and Sarayu Blue are reprising their roles as Dr. Covey and Trina from the To All the Boys movies.

Speaking about XO, Kitty and making Kitty a main character this time around, co-showrunner Sascha Rothchild told Netflix’s Tudum, “She’s stepping into the fore — picking up the baton from Lara Jean.”

One of the reasons Sascha and Jenny decided to set XO, Kitty in Seoul was to get away from the Covey house and Portland, so Kitty gets her own story and audiences aren’t constantly thinking about Lara Jean and Peter (Noah Centineo).

As of right now, Lana and Noah are not set to reprise their roles as Lara Jean and Peter in the show.

Jenny told Netflix’s Tudum, “XO, Kitty really is Kitty’s story and that’s part of the reason why I really wanted to set this story in a different place. If you see the Covey house that we all know and love and their high school in Portland, you’d probably just be thinking, ‘Oh, what’s Lara Jean up to?'”

“For us, it was about giving Kitty the chance to really explore her inner self and to offer that peek into what she’s thinking,” Jenny said. “To All the Boys is centered around Lara Jean, and we’re really in her head. Kitty is obviously a side character to that story. So we don’t know what she’s thinking.”

She continued, saying, “We could guess, because Kitty definitely wears her emotions and her thoughts on her sleeve, and she says whatever she thinks. That was the most fun part of exploring this character: She’s not so in her head. She will say the first thing that comes to mind. Kitty is definitely a living-out-loud kind of a character.”

Jenny and Sascha have also said that you can jump into XO, Kitty without having seen the To All the Boys movies, if you want. While it takes place in the “same universe,” Kitty very much gets her own separate story in the show.

The 10-episode series drops on May 18 on Netflix, and honestly, I really need a good YA rom-com right now, so I can’t wait to watch.
