We are getting to tell the end of the story!!! I’m deeply relieved and so excited about this new creative venture. I’ve written the script and we’re hard at work already. I know you’ll have a lot of questions, and I’ll be able to talk about it more very soon, but for now let’s CELEBRATE! Heartstopper is getting its ending!!!!!!
Heartstopper Forever, starringKit Connoras Nick and Joe Locke as Charlie, is a coming-of-age LGBTQ+ romance that continues the teens’ love story
“It’s a final Heartstopperstory, like the TV series, but with the benefit of film length, we really sit with the characters on their journey. I think it will offer a deep final insight into the characters fans love,” Oseman explained to Rolling Stone
Oseman said that she had a “really special final day on set,” which involved a key scene of the movie that celebrates all things Heartstopper
“We were all very emotional,” the author said. “It felt like the last day of school before everyone goes off into their own individual futures. It was very emotional and we are so proud.”
