Going along with the romantic comedy genre, there are certain character types that are prevalent in almost all of them.
In most romcom films, the two lead character generally fall under these descriptions:
The Hopeless Romantic: Charming and free-spirited; probably a florist who believes in true love and "love-at-first-sight". Their infectious optimism and unwavering belief in soulmates make them the ultimate hopeless romantic. Their quirky personality and love for all things vintage make them a lovable and relatable protagonist.
The Charming Misfit: A witty and endearing bookstore owner with a penchant for classic literature and a fear of commitment. Their quick wit and undeniable charm often lead them into comical yet heartwarming situations. Their reluctance to embrace love makes them the perfect counterpart to the hopeless romantic.
When planning out rom-com characters for a film opening, it's crucial to ensure that the main characters are introduced in a way that captivates the audience, clearly establishing their goals and motivations in seeking love. Therefore, it only makes sense to have both love interests in the film opening.
The opening should include a story that tells the audience the reasons for the characters seeking love, adding depth to their personalities and the overall story.
