Streaming giant Netflix confirmed that Edinburgh is the setting for their TV adaptation of the best-selling romance novel One Day.
Nicole Taylor, the writer behind the hit city Glasgow -set film Wild Rose and the BBC surrogacy thriller The Nest, is adapting Nicholls' 2009 book into a series.
Anne Hathaway previously starred in the 2011 film adaptation of the book which included filming locations in Arthur's Seat, Moray Place, Parliament Square, and Calton Hill.
The author David Nicholls was inspired to write the story after spending a summer working at the Fringe festival in Scotland's capital city.
Netflix’s official announcement on One Day states: “An epic, tragi-comic love story, every episode catches up with central characters Em and Dex on one particular day – 15th July – as they grow and change, move together and apart, experience joy and heartbreak."
Giving evidence to the Scottish Affairs Committee, Anne Mensah, vice-president of original series at Netflix said: "There are lots of things coming up.
"I used to be the head of drama for BBC Scotland, so I used to live in Glasgow for five years.
"What is amazing is being able to know how brilliant the production sector is, how amazing the crew is, how brilliant the writers are.
"Working in Scotland for us is easy.
"It is a lovely place to work and The Crown has been shot there and is shooting there again.
"We are looking at a new version of One Day, by Scottish writer Nicole Taylor and obviously that had to be in Edinburgh."
