United States 365 Days: This Day made a significant change to the original story
365 Days: This Day has only just arrived on Netflix, but it's already shaping up to be another huge hit for the streaming service.
As well as leaving fans stunned by the shocking finale and desperate for the third movie, the sequel could also lead them to search out the original book trilogy by Blanka Lipińska that the movies are based on.
However, if they read them, they'll find that things don't exactly pan out the same way for Laura and Massimo as they do in the books. In fact, the movie sequel made one major change to the character of Nacho.
And it was probably for the better.
Netflix
Let's start with a quick recap of the events of 365 Days: This Day as we saw them in the movie. Laura survived her accident at the end of the first movie, but it led to her losing the baby.
She's keeping this from Massimo and while they get married, their honeymoon period doesn't last long. At a party, Laura sees Massimo go off with his former lover Anna to have sexy times, unaware that she's actually seeing Massimo's twin brother Adriano bonking Anna.
This leads her into the arms of Nacho, who she earlier met when he was working as a gardener for Massimo. Nacho takes her back to his father's home in Spain, and Laura quickly develops feelings for him.
Laura and Nacho's meet-cute in the book version of 365 Days: This Day was very different though. Instead, Laura is kidnapped by Nacho and held hostage by him as she – surprise, surprise – starts to develop feelings for him.

This is basically the plot of the first movie, so it's no surprise that they made the change for the sequel film. Had they kept this, we wouldn't have been surprised to see a similar backlash to Laura's storyline that the first film incurred.
We're not saying Laura's storyline is much better, but the sequel does give her an element of independence (slightly). Unlike the first movie, Netflix worked on the production of the sequel, so that could have seen more controversial, ickier elements toned down.
After this meet-cute, the book and the movie follow the same path as Laura is hurt again when Nacho reveals he's the son of Don Fernando Matos, an "eternal rival" to Massimo's family.
Don Matos wants to use Laura to persuade Massimo to give up the family crown and let his brother take over.
Nacho insists that his feelings for Laura are real and that he had no choice. It doesn't look like she forgives him though and, anyway, she's shot soon afterwards by Anna so she's got other things to worry about.

Laura also ends the second book being shot after Massimo attempts to rescue her from Nacho, but there is another key difference between the movie version and the original book version.
In the books, Laura is still pregnant with Massimo's child and didn't miscarry during the accident. At the start of the third book, Massimo has to decide whether to save Laura or their unborn baby.
Assuming that Laura didn't fall pregnant again during the events of the second movie, 365 Days 3 won't follow this path and it's probably for the best again. In the third book, Massimo chooses to save Laura, but doesn't tell her why she miscarried.
Other events include her running back into the arms of Nacho, leading to Massimo killing her dog as revenge and then kidnapping her again. So here's hoping Netflix changes things up once again for The Next 365 Days.
365 Days: This Day is available to watch now on Netflix.
