As a devoted Heartstopper fan who has been following Charlie and Nick’s heartwarming journey since its inception, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming season! The confirmation that season three will delve into the characters’ exploration of sex has me buzzing with anticipation. Just like Charlie and Nick’s first-ever kissing scene, this new physical aspect of their relationship promises to be a vulnerable yet exciting journey.
Actor Joe Locke, known for his role in Heartstopper, has affirmed that the forthcoming season of the Netflix series will delve into themes related to intimacy.
The performer is scheduled to reappear on our screens, portraying Charlie Spring, in the third season of the popular coming-of-age drama. This season is slated to debut on a streaming platform in October.
In a recent chat with Variety, Locke hinted that the series is maturing and shared that the latter part of this season will delve into themes surrounding intimacy.
As a dedicated fan, I found myself transported back to season one when the Marvel star mentioned the fresh, tangible facet of Charlie and Nick’s (Kit Connor) relationship we’re delving into now. It was almost like reliving their “first-ever kissing scene” all over again, a nostalgic reminder of those early days.
“Me and Kit are so comfortable with each other, but it’s still a vulnerable thing to do,” he added.
Alice Oseman, the creator of “Heartstopper”, has shared that season three will adopt a more mature theme. She mentioned this to Netflix, stating, “Topics like mental health, intimate relationships, career aspirations, and growth are on the agenda for Nick, Charlie, and their fellow ‘Heartstopper’ teens. As they edge closer to adulthood, they continue to explore, learn, and navigate new feelings, anxieties, and happy moments.”
In the third season, we’ll see some fresh characters joining Charlie, Nick, and the rest of their crew. Among them is Tori’s (played by Jenny Walser) new romantic interest, Michael Holden, who will be portrayed by Darragh Hand.
In this captivating series I adore, fresh personalities are introduced, such as Oliver – Charlie and Tori’s cousin, yet their younger brother in the original graphic novels by Oseman, portrayed by Jensen Clayden. Additionally, we have Aunt Diane, Nick’s relative, skillfully played by Hayley Atwell.
In the new role, Eddie Marsan from “Back to Black” will portray Geoff, Charlie’s therapist. Meanwhile, Jonathan Bailey of “Bridgerton” fame is set for a guest appearance as Jack Maddox, a popular classicist on Instagram who catches Charlie’s eye due to an unrequited crush.
Heartstopper seasons 1-2 are streaming on Netflix. Season 3 premieres on Thursday, October 3.
