Voicemails for Isabelle: Netflix’s tearful rom‑com about grief and healing

Voicemails for Isabelle, Netflix’s latest original rom‑com, centers on Jill (Zoey Deutch), who mourns her sister Isabelle by leaving voicemails that are accidentally routed to a stranger, Wes (Nick Robinson). What starts as an unusual connection grows into a heartfelt romance that also chronicles grief and healing through the sisters’ bond, including flashbacks and a finale linked to Robyn’s Dancing on My Own. Critics have praised the film for its mature tone and chemistry; Rotten Tomatoes lists 84% critics and 91% audience, The New York Times calls it poignant, and The AV Club hails it as a standout Netflix dramedy, though The Guardian notes a few creepy plot beats. It premiered on June 19 and has topped Netflix’s U.S. film charts, signaling a few emotional tears for viewers.

Stand-Up Bits, Sisterhood, and Grief: The Real Sparks Behind Voicemails for Isabelle

Writer-director Leah McKendrick says Voicemails for Isabelle was sparked by real-life moments—a stand-up bit about a father’s long voicemails, her sister moving across the country, and a period of morbid reflection—which she folded into a Netflix rom‑com about grief and sisterhood. The film, starring Zoey Deutch as Jill and Ciara Bravo as Isabelle, follows a baker who leaves heartfelt voicemails for her deceased sister after her cystic fibrosis battle, and it’s currently No.1 on Netflix shortly after its premiere.
