Heartstopper is one of the most different romance shows I’ve seen. I’m not someone who likes watching romance but this is an exception. More than a romance, Heartstopper is a coming of age story and not a generic one at that. You know last year was surprisingly good for small films and TV shows. I mean Cha Cha Real Smooth was my favorite film of 2022. This is a wonderful show that everyone should watch. Netflix sometimes really gets it right. If you haven’t checked it out yet then definitely do that. I mean if you’re into romance, then it might be the best for you. Given massive success of the show, Netflix renewed it on 20th May 2022. Ever since then, the show has been in production for its second season but when will it come out?
In the announcement video from Netflix, we got some nice tidbits but the streaming giant also announced when Heartstopper season two would begin streaming- August 3rd 2023. As the release date has inched closer, Netflix has finally revealed the official trailer for Heartstopper season two.
Heartstopper Season Two Looks Fantastic!
Heartstopper season two looks full of fun, filled with drama and romance. Rhea Norwood’s character Imogen looks like she would start to care about herself more and keep herself above boys. While Yasmin Finney’s character Elle will go through so many things this season that we’re not ready for. We’re teased to see a more confident version of Elle. The vibe of the show feels different than season one but the quality of the scripts has elevated. I think we will see a difference in the upcoming season, as the storytelling looks more mature.
Heartstopper has already been greenlit for a season three. This is a big achievement as Netflix has a tendency of cancelling shows rather than renewing them. Alice Oseman and Patrick Walters talked about the popularity of their show at TUDUM’23! Oseman said, “I hope that it just makes people smile and brightens their day — but I also hope that it inspires, particularly, young queer people to believe that they can find happiness and find romance and find friendship.”
“We put so much love into the making of Heartstopper so to reassemble the team for two more seasons is a dream come true,” continued executive producer Patrick Walters. “I’m forever grateful to Alice Oseman for entrusting us with this beautiful, unique story that at its core seeks to uplift the next generation of young LGBTQ+ people. Stay tuned!”
