They didn&#8217;t allow them to have a chance to move past this and get to a healed place.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A third added, \u201cI couldn\u2019t agree more. The fact that in the book Sam knows all along and still loves Percy throughout the entire book is so important. I hate that they changed such an important part.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And a fourth chimed in, \u201cMy biggest issue too is the fact that Sam (or Sue) didn\u2019t know.

In the series, however, he keeps the secret for years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fortune acknowledged that this could change how audiences view him. \u201cCharlie gets a lot of credit for telling [Sam],\u201d she said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5193\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5193\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5193\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/06\/4-7.jpg\" alt=\"Percy and Sam in Every Year After\" width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/06\/4-7.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/06\/4-7-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/06\/4-7-768x403.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5193\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Prime Video<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think it was really important for me in the story that Charlie owned up to it.

Maybe.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Michael Bradway, meanwhile, argued that Charlie&#8217;s silence \u201conly helps his journey\u201d moving forward.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think the fact that Charlie really felt like they could keep this from Sam forever is crazy because it\u2019s gonna come out,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I think that Charlie was thinking that\u2019s a problem for later.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPeople\u2019s perspectives are going to be this roller coaster of emotions.

Phillipson"},"description":"Daisy joined Digitalbox in 2026 as an Editor at Film Shrine, where she oversees all things film and TV. Having written for LADbible, Little White Lies, Digital Spy and Dexerto, she\u2019s covered everything from blockbuster releases to niche horror, with a particular obsession for shows like Euphoria, Severance and The Boys. If it\u2019s dark, disturbing or dominating Netflix, Daisy is probably already writing about it.","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/DaisyWebb77"],"jobTitle":"Editor at Film Shrine","url":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/author\/daisythetab-com\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","canonical_url":"https:\/\/filmshrine.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/06\/12\/every-year-after-boss-explains-book-change-percy-charlie-sam-has-fans-crashing-out\/","smart_links":{"inbound":0,"outbound":0},"traffic_boost_suggestions_count":0,"meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Every Year After boss explains controversial book change that has fans \u2018crashing out\u2019","url":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/06\/12\/every-year-after-boss-explains-book-change-percy-charlie-sam-has-fans-crashing-out\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/06\/12\/every-year-after-boss-explains-book-change-percy-charlie-sam-has-fans-crashing-out\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1-3-150x150.jpg","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1-3.jpg"},"articleSection":"Explained","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Daisy Phillipson"}],"creator":["Daisy Phillipson"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Film Shrine","logo":"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/04\/cropped-The-Tab_Film-Shrine_Favicon.png"},"keywords":["every year after","now showing","prime video","tv"],"dateCreated":"2026-06-12T14:00:58Z","datePublished":"2026-06-12T14:00:58Z","dateModified":"2026-06-12T14:00:58Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"wp-parsely-metadata\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Every Year After boss explains controversial book change that has fans \\u2018crashing out\\u2019\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/thetab.com\\\/filmshrine\\\/2026\\\/06\\\/12\\\/every-year-after-boss-explains-book-change-percy-charlie-sam-has-fans-crashing-out\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/thetab.com\\\/filmshrine\\\/2026\\\/06\\\/12\\\/every-year-after-boss-explains-book-change-percy-charlie-sam-has-fans-crashing-out\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cdn.filmshrine.com\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/06\\\/1-3-150x150.jpg\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cdn.filmshrine.com\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/06\\\/1-3.jpg\"},\"articleSection\":\"Explained\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Daisy Phillipson\"}],\"creator\":[\"Daisy Phillipson\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"Film Shrine\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cdn.filmshrine.com\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/04\\\/cropped-The-Tab_Film-Shrine_Favicon.png\"},\"keywords\":[\"every year after\",\"now showing\",\"prime video\",\"tv\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2026-06-12T14:00:58Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2026-06-12T14:00:58Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2026-06-12T14:00:58Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/filmshrine.com\/p.js"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5187","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5187"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5187\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5194,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5187\/revisions\/5194"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5190"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5187"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5187"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5187"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=5187"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
