What is Regretting You about?
Morgan Grant has built her life around her daughter Clara and her marriage to Chris — until a sudden, devastating accident takes Chris away and shatters everything Morgan thought she understood about her family. As Clara enters her own world of first love, artistic ambition, and questions about her parents' past, the two women find themselves on a collision course neither expected. Grief surfaces old wounds and buried truths, and both Morgan and Clara must decide what kind of relationship they want to salvage from the wreckage. The story alternates between their two perspectives, showing how the same events look entirely different depending on where you stand.

Mckenna Grace plays teenage Clara, while Allison Williams takes on the role of Morgan. Dave Franco portrays Chris, with Scott Eastwood and Willa Fitzgerald in supporting roles.

Context & significance
For Iranian diaspora viewers who grew up with strong expectations around family loyalty and intergenerational bonds, Regretting You will feel immediately recognizable in its central tension: a mother and daughter who love each other but cannot seem to understand each other. The film draws on the same emotional vocabulary as beloved Persian drama serials — the weight of family secrets, grief that is not allowed to be spoken aloud, and the slow, painful work of rebuilding trust. The adaptation of a globally popular Colleen Hoover novel also means it arrives with a built-in community of readers who will want to see how the story translates to screen. Available with Persian dubbing and subtitles on K-Time.
