Netflix’s season three trailer for Heartstopper begins by acknowledging that 16 is when things stop making sense. (And it doesn’t get any easier moving forward.) The trailer for the coming-of-age drama captures teen angst, and shows Charlie and Nick’s relationship is still incredibly complicated.
“Season 2 ended with Nick beginning to understand the extent of Charlie’s mental health issues, and it’s this that will drive the story through Season 3,” said series creator and writer Alice Oseman. “While Heartstopper will always celebrate the joyful and point towards hope, I’m really excited that we are allowing the tone of the show to mature alongside our beloved characters growing up. Mental health, sex, university ambitions, and more: Nick, Charlie, and the Heartstopper teens are getting older, learning more about themselves and each other, and experiencing new desires, new fears, and new joys as they approach adulthood.”
Joe Locke stars as Charlie and Kit Connor returns as Nick. The season three cast also includes Jenny Walser as Tori, William Gao as Tao, Yasmin Finney as Elle, Corinna Brown as Tara, Kizzy Edgell as Darcy, Tobie Donovan as Isaac, Rhea Norwood as Imogen, and Leila Khan as Sahar.
Hayley Atwell (Agent Carter) and Eddie Marsan (Fair Play) are new additions to the third season’s cast, playing Nick’s aunt Diane and Charlie’s therapist Geoff. Bridgerton‘s Jonathan Bailey cameos as Jack Maddox, “an Instagram-famous classicist and Charlie’s celebrity crush.” Darragh Hand joins the new season as Michael Holden.
“Charlie would like to tell Nick that he loves him. Nick also has something important to say to Charlie. As the summer holiday ends and the months race on, the friends begin to realize that the school year will come with both its joys and its challenges,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “As they learn more about each other and their relationships, plan social events and parties, and start thinking about university choices, everyone must learn to lean on those they love when life doesn’t go to plan.”
Alice Oseman adapted her own bestselling book series and serves as an executive producer. Patrick Walters, Iain Canning, Emile Sherman, and Euros Lyn also executive produce, with Andy Newbery directing.
The eight-episode season three premieres on October 3, 2024.
