If you read smut and like your favorites adapted to screen, you’ve likely stumbled upon Passionflix.
For the uninitiated, it’s basically Netflix for smut-friendly romance readers. A streamer that adapts popular romance novels and, unlike Hallmark, doesn’t panic at the sight of explicit content. In other words, a spicy, adaptation-focused haven made for people like us.
If you want the full breakdown, here’s my Ultimate Guide to Passionflix.
Now let’s get into the upcoming Passionflix movies planned for 2026. It’s shaping up to be interesting. Here’s everything confirmed, filming, or quietly brewing in their optioned pile, so we have something to look forward to.
Confirmed Passionflix Projects for 2026
These are the Passionflix projects officially on the way for 2026, with filming underway or release windows already announced. These are the new movies on Passionflix you can actually expect next year.
Royally Screwed
Author: Emma Chase
Release date: Valentine’s Day 2026
Prince Nicholas is used to everyone bowing, until New York waitress Olivia greets him by throwing a pie in his face. He is intrigued, she is overwhelmed, and suddenly they are dealing with royals, paparazzi, and way too much scrutiny. Olivia thinks he might be worth it.
Nicholas has to choose the crown or the girl who refuses to bow.
Production started in August 2025 with Jenny Boyd and Max Rinehart in the lead roles. Passionflix seems to be setting this up as their big rom-com moment for early 2026, and it’s easily one of the most anticipated new Passionflix movies for fans of contemporary royalty romances..
Black Dagger Brotherhood: Season 2
Author: J.R. Ward
Release date: 2026
The next chapter of J.R. Ward’s vampire universe rolls out with more fangs, more leather, and even more tortured warriors who can’t figure out how to talk like adults. Season 1 followed Wrath and Beth; Season 2 goes deeper into the Brotherhood’s world with a new central couple and higher stakes.
After Season 1’s 2025 debut, Passionflix confirmed Season 2 is already in development for 2026. Early details hint at expanded worldbuilding, upgraded production, and long-requested Brotherhood characters finally getting screen time.
Beauty from Surrender
Author: Georgia Cates
Release date: Expected to begin filming
After the events of Beauty from Pain, Jack McLachlan and Laurelyn Prescott’s relationship is no longer the simple arrangement it once was. What began as a temporary deal without emotions quickly turned into something deeper, and now both of them must decide whether they’re ready for the risks that come with real love.
Passionflix has hinted on social media that filming for Beauty from Surrender could begin soon, but the studio hasn’t announced an official production schedule or release date yet. Given the popularity of the first film, fans are hopeful that the full trilogy will soon make it to the screen.
Optioned and Wishlist Passionflix Adaptations for 2026
These titles are officially optioned or heavily requested by fans, but they’re still waiting on production updates. They don’t have release dates yet, but they’re the wishlist picks most likely to hit Passionflix next.
Still Beating
Author: Jennifer Hartmann
Status: Optioned
Still Beating follows two people who have hated each other for years, until they wake up chained together in a basement and are forced into survival mode. What starts as mutual dislike shifts into something deeper and far more complicated as they face trauma, attraction, and the emotional wreckage that comes with staying alive.
Passionflix officially announced this option, and readers immediately lost their minds. It is one of the most intense, high-angst romances on their slate, and fans are already speculating about casting. If adapted well, this could become one of Passionflix’s most talked-about releases.
Sugar Daddy
Author: Lisa Kleypas
Status: Optioned
Sugar Daddy follows Liberty Jones, who falls for Hardy Cates when she’s just fourteen, only for him to leave their small Texas town in search of a bigger life. Forced to grow up quickly while raising her younger sister, Liberty eventually builds a new future and crosses paths with the wealthy Travis family. Just when she thinks she has moved on, her past with Hardy resurfaces. Old love, new possibilities, and long-buried family secrets collide as Liberty faces a choice that could remake her entire future.
This is one of the most beloved Lisa Kleypas books, and the Passionflix option announcement lit up reader groups instantly. If you love a mix of small-town heartbreak and wealthy-family drama, this one is for you.
Something About You
Author: Julie James
Status: Optioned
When Assistant U.S. Attorney Cameron Lynde becomes the only witness to a late-night murder in a luxury hotel, she lands back in the orbit of FBI Agent Jack Pallas, the man who once blamed her for ruining his career. They can barely stand each other, but they are forced to work together as the case heats up. Snark, tension, and slow-burn attraction do the rest.
Something About You hits the FBI and U.S. Attorney trope perfectly, with sharp banter, real stakes, and an enemies to lovers dynamic readers adore. If you’re into suspense and quick verbal sparring, this one will be right up your alley.
Come Away With Me
Author: Kristen Proby
Status: Optioned
When Luke Williams, a former child star living incognito, realizes Natalie has no idea who he is, he is instantly intrigued. She is confident, sharp, and completely unimpressed by celebrity status, which only makes him want her more. But the longer he hides his past, the harder the truth becomes to tell. And Natalie is not someone who handles secrets well.
Kristen Proby’s “With Me in Seattle” series has a huge fanbase, and Come Away With Me has long been a top Passionflix wishlist pick. It has the ideal setup for an adaptation: a mistaken-identity meet-cute, a famous hero trying to blend in, and a heroine who genuinely couldn’t care less about celebrity status.
Easy Love
Author: Kristen Proby
Status: Optioned
When corporate investigator Kate O’Shaughnessy is hired to uncover embezzlement inside a powerful New Orleans family business, the last thing she expects is to fall for the CEO she’s supposed to be watching. Eli Boudreaux is brilliant, moody, and determined to protect his family’s company, but he can’t seem to stay away from Kate. Their attraction heats up fast, and trust gets complicated as secrets start to surface.
Easy Love mixes steamy chemistry with a corporate-suspense backdrop and that classic New Orleans atmosphere. If you love workplace tension, high heat, and a hero-heroine pairing that sparks fast, this one is for you.
Fighting to Breathe
Author: Aurora Rose Reynolds
Status: Optioned & in development
Lea Lamb and Austin Wolf were inseparable as teenagers, convinced they’d spend their lives together. But after Lea’s father dies in a tragic accident, she breaks under the weight of her grief and disappears without explanation. Austin spends fifteen years believing she abandoned him. When Lea returns home, all the hurt resurfaces, along with a long-buried secret neither of them expected. Now they have to face a past shaped by grief, bad timing, and unfinished business.
This is classic second-chance romance with big emotions and small-town nostalgia. Fans love the mix of heartbreak, healing, and lingering chemistry, making it one of the most anticipated titles on the optioned list.
Enthrall
Author: Vanessa Fewings
Status: Optioned & in development
Enthrall centers on Mia Lauren, a young woman who takes a job at a high-end, very secretive Los Angeles club and is quickly pulled into a world of power, seduction, and emotional intensity she’s not prepared for. As she becomes entangled with the club’s enigmatic owners, Richard Booth and Cameron Cole, temptation and control blur into something far more complicated.
This is one of the darker, more erotic picks on the Passionflix optioned list. Fans love its high tension, high heat dynamic, and the built-in love triangle potential. As one of the most mature upcoming Passionflix movies in development, it could easily become one of their most visually stylized projects.
Withering Hope
Author: Layla Hagen
Status: Optioned & in development
When a plane crash leaves Aimee James and her pilot Tristan stranded in the middle of the Amazon rainforest, survival becomes their only focus. Days stretch into weeks, danger is constant, and the bond between them shifts from necessity to something far more intimate. But Aimee is engaged, and Tristan is carrying his own shadows, turning their growing connection into an emotional tangle neither of them expected.
Withering Hope is one of the most cinematic optioned titles on Passionflix’s list, with its rainforest setting and high-stakes survival plot. Fans of emotional, atmosphere-heavy romance have been waiting a long time for this adaptation.
Conclusion
That’s the current lineup of new Passionflix movies and shows expected in 2026, along with the optioned titles fans are hoping will finally make it to screen. Passionflix updates tend to appear without warning, so I’ll keep this page updated as soon as anything new is announced.

Hi Kristine 💕
You’re definitely not alone — Beauty from Pain has such a devoted fanbase, and many viewers are hoping the full trilogy will be brought to the screen.
As of now, the Beauty series (including Beauty from Surrender and Beauty from Love) has been optioned, which means Passionflix holds the rights, but the sequels are not yet in production. Passionflix often waits to see how the first installment does before moving forward with the rest. But based on how they’ve handled other series — like Gabriel’s Inferno and A Lover’s Vow — they tend to follow up so there’s definitely reason to hope.
Fingers crossed 🤞 and I’ll keep this post updated if any news is shared. Thank you so much for commenting!

Hello again, Kristine! 😊
Yes, I’ve seen some updates on Passionflix’s socials, but the information is still a little vague. It looks like “Beauty From Surrender” is expected to begin filming this year, but they haven’t announced an official filming date or release window yet.
So it’s not just a rumor, but we don’t have fully confirmed production details for now. Passionflix usually shares casting and filming updates closer to the start of production, so hopefully we’ll hear more soon.
I can see you’re really excited about this movie, so fingers crossed we get the full trilogy! 🤞
And how about the rest of the Kincaid brothers trilogy by by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde?
I love that series too! Passionflix adapted Dirty Sexy Saint, but I haven’t seen any announcements about the other Kincaid brothers yet. Hopefully we’ll get Mason and Levi’s stories one day. I’ll definitely keep an eye on their updates!
