A new Heartstopper update!
Following the massive success of seasons one and two, Heartstopper has officially entered production for a third season. The announcement was made by Heartstopper creator Alice Oseman via an Instagram post.
āAND ACTION! Heartstopper season three is officially in production,ā the caption reads. In the photo, Oseman holds a clapperboard revealing that Andy Newbery (Hidden, 15 Days) will direct the first episode of season three.
The third season of Heartstopper will feature most of the seriesā main cast members such as Kit Connor (Nick), Joe Locke (Charlie), Yasmin Finney (Elle), William Gao (Tao), Kizzy Edgell (Darcy), Corinna Brown (Tara), and Tobie Donovan (Isaac).
According to the Netflix-run blog Tudum, Sebastian Croft (Ben) will not return for season three of Heartstopper. Oseman believes that it wouldāve been āneedlessly cruelā for Ben to receive āany form of redemption arc on-screenā following the trauma that heās inflicted on Charlie. They wrote:
āParticularly as the aftershocks of Benās manipulation are still causing Charlie pain, Ben can become a better person, but Charlie should not have to witness that, endorse it, or offer any forgiveness. And so he wonāt.ā
Other actors who are expected to reprise their roles include Olivia Colman (Sarah), Rhea Norwood (Imogen), Jenny Walser (Tori), Cormac Hyde-Corrin (Harry), Fisayo Akinade (Nathan), Bradley Riches (James), and Chetna Pandya (Singh).
Weāll probably only get to watch season three of Heartstopper in 2024, but we canāt wait to see all the incoming updates in the months to follow!
The first two seasons of Heartstopper are now streaming on Netflix.
