What if life gives you the chance to meet your first crush at a later stage of life? Would you get into a relationship with them? Would it be all you hoped it would be back when you were infatuated as an adolescent? Mara Brock Akil’s Forever, an upcoming Netflix limited series, answers all these questions.

On Thursday, Netflix unveiled the trailer for the series, which stars Love Simone and Michael Cooper Jr in lead roles. This coming-of-age story dives into the powerful first love of two Black teenagers in 2018 Los Angeles. Navigating the awkwardness (and beauty) of a first relationship, they explore their identities against the backdrop of a city buzzing with youthful energy. Forever will have themes found in creator Mara Brock Akil's previous works, like Girlfriends and Being Mary Jane, which celebrated Black love.

Akil has based the series on the 1975 eponymous novel by Judy Blume. Adriyan Rae, Karen Pittman, and Wood Harris are also a part of the cast of Forever. The first episode of Forever is set to be helmed by Academy Award winner Regina King, who will also serve as executive producer.

Forever is all set to premiere on May 8.
