Netflix confirms ‘Heartstopper’ movie

‘Heartstopper’ will conclude with a full length film, Netflix confirmed today.

The film will star Connor and Locke (who will also serve as executive producers), and is written by Heartstopper creator, executive producer, and graphic novelist Alice Oseman.

Production will begin this summer and the film will be released later this year.

“I am completely overjoyed that we will get to tell the end of the Heartstopper story,” Oseman told Netflix Tadum. “I’m so grateful to everyone who has worked hard to make this possible and to the incredible fans of Heartstopper for your patience and passion. I cannot wait to bring this story to a magical conclusion.”

Netflix say: “The film will wrap up Nick and Charlie’s journey, as an adaptation of Alice Oseman’s upcoming sixth and final Heartstopper graphic novel. After Season 3, the couple is inseparable. But, with Nick preparing to leave for university and Charlie finding new independence at school, the reality of a long-distance relationship begins to weigh on them. Doubts take hold, and their relationship faces its biggest challenge yet. 

Meanwhile, Nick and Charlie’s friends are also navigating the ups and downs of love and friendship, confronting the bittersweet challenges of growing up and moving on”. 

The feature film will pick up after the season 3 finale and will bring the story to an end.
