With the fate of Netflix’s Heartstopper having been up in the air over the past few months, it has now finally been confirmed if, when and in what form we will see Kit Connor’s Nick and Joe Locke’s Charlie again.
The streamer has announced that rather than returning for a fourth season, the teen romantic drama will instead be back in the form of a feature film, which will cap off the storyline.
The final film is set to shoot this summer, and is being adapted by Alice Oseman from her own upcoming sixth volume in her graphic novel series.
Connor and Locke, who will also serve as executive producers on the film, are currently the only cast members to have been confirmed, but we’re sure many returning favourites will be announced in due course.

— Netflix UK & Ireland (@NetflixUK) April 22, 2025When the news was confirmed, Oseman said in a statement: “I am completely overjoyed that we will get to tell the end of the Heartstopper story.
“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.”
