40 Dates and 40 Nights, the new romantic comedy starring Bailee Madison, Joel Courtney, and Annie Potts, received a strong press mention from Martin Cid Magazine.
The article describes the film as a romantic comedy built around a sharp, modern premise: Leah, played by Bailee Madison, accepts her grandmother’s challenge to go on 40 dates in 40 nights in exchange for a full year of rent.
Joel Courtney is highlighted as a key part of the story, playing the man who disrupts Leah’s carefully counted dating experiment. Martin Cid Magazine describes Joel’s character as “the complication the math did not account for,” positioning him as the person who forces Leah to confront whether love can really be reduced to a numbers game.
The film is directed by Andy Delaney, written by Sarah Howard, and distributed by Brainstorm Media. Bailee Madison also produces alongside Randy Wayne. The cast includes Bailee Madison, Joel Courtney, Annie Potts, Jai Rodriguez, Jack Schumacher, Eric Nelsen, Bethany Geaber, Mia Challis, Sterling Knight, and Mark Hapka.
For fans of Joel Courtney’s work in Super 8, The Kissing Booth films, Jesus Revolution, Soul on Fire, and The Messengers, 40 Dates and 40 Nights offers another opportunity to see Joel in a romantic comedy setting with a strong ensemble cast.
40 Dates and 40 Nights begins its limited theatrical release on June 26, 2026, before arriving on demand at the end of the month.
