Romantic Comedies Coming Out in 2019

9 Romantic Comedies That Will Make You Feel Warm and Fuzzy in 2019

The rise of the romantic comedy in 2018 was swift, wonderfully cheesy, and surprisingly groundbreaking. We saw releases on both the big and small screen that reminded fans that romance definitely isn't dead — like the iconic adaptation of Kevin Kwan's hit 2014 novel, Crazy Rich Asians, and Set It Up, the film that led the "resurgence of romantic comedies" on Netflix. Now, it's a whole new year, and 2019 promises a ton of charming flicks that will excite any true rom-com fan. Check them out ahead!
