Josh Duhamel, who stars in the movie, stated that there was an inevitable pressure of being compared to previous cinematic adaptations of Sparks’ novels like ‘The Notebook’ and ‘Dear John.’ However, the actor continued, “We didn’t want to fall into the same traps. After all, Sparks is a master of character-driven stories and gets the balance between vulnerabilities and sentimentality right, which helps the story feel not cliched.
He mentioned that “the thought process just kind of took over,” and the story for ‘Safe Haven’ was born. Moreover, he wanted to incorporate an element of danger so as to present a newer and fresher story for his audience. He said that the inspiration for the book came from “the depths of a creative well,” and more than one thing inspired him to write this novel. Sparks has shed some light on the novel’s inception in the past. Sparks’ novels are no strangers to the big screen, with eleven books written by him receiving feature film adaptations to date. Like many other Nicholas Sparks’ novels, ‘Safe Haven’ is a fictional story of love and romance with some thriller elements that keep the readers (and audiences) gasping till the very last moment. The film is based on Nicholas Sparks‘ best-selling fiction novel of the same name. No, ‘Safe Haven’ is not based on a true story.
