First poster for Lasse Hallstrom’s Safe Haven

She Knows has debuted the first poster for Lasse Hallstrom’s adaptation of the Nicholas Sparks novel Safe Haven. The poster definitely does have a very Notebook-y air about it.

The film centres on a young woman who arises suspicions when she moved to a small town but refuses to integrate the tight-knit community.  She does however manage to strike up a relationship with a widowed store owner, but soon realizes she’ll have to face her dark secrets head on.

Julianne Hough and Josh Duhamel star, alongside Cobie Smulders and David Lyons.

Safe Haven is out in the US on February 8th, but has no definite Irish release date as of yet.
