Move over, Hallmark, E! is coming for your made-for-tv rom-com crown this winter. On Jan. 15, the cable channel announced it will be rolling out three new romantic-comedy movies featuring all of the tropes fans of the genre love (small towns! royals! accidental marriages!), but with an added dash of spice thrown in for good measure. The movies, which will begin airing on Feb. 19, are just the start of the channel's rom-com efforts. According to a press release, three more swoonworthy films will premiere later this year.
In addition to sharing details about the upcoming movies, E! also released a trailer touting the three films - and seemingly throwing a little shade at Hallmark. "We all love rom-coms where the big-city girl finds love in a small town, but are you thirsting for more?" a voiceover asks before cutting to lots of shirtless scenes and candid sex talk.
