Netflix will release Heartstopper season 2 this summer. The adolescent drama was a tremendous hit when it debuted on the streaming service back in April 2022. Fans praised the show for its positive portrayal of the LGBTQ+ community, which led to a multi-season renewal in May, less than a month after season 1’s debut.
The whole Heartstopper core cast, including returning Kit Connor and Joe Locke, will return for the second season, and they’ll be joined by a multitude of new faces, including Thibault De Montalembert, Bel Priestley, and Ash Self.
Elle’s “new friends” are Naomi Priestley and Felix Self, while Nick (Connor)’s father is Stephane Montalembert.
We may anticipate some drama between Sarah Nelson and her ex, Stephane, since Chetna Pandya, Fisayo Akinade, Alan Turkington, and Olivia Colman will all be returning as Coach Singh, Mr. Ajayi, Mr. Lange, and Mrs. Nelson.
Heartstopper season 2 release date

A captivating behind-the-scenes video with many cast members discussing what viewers can anticipate from the highly anticipated second season of the LGBTQ+ drama was used by the streamer to reveal the debut date.
In the video, Finney describes her character as having “so many things this season with Elle that you’re not ready for,” before adding, “I would say it is different in the sense she’s more confident. She surrounds herself with uplifting individuals.
