🎬 Netflix’s Heartstopper to End with a Film Starring Kit Connor and Joe Locke

After months of silence, Netflix has finally confirmed that its beloved LGBTQ+ series Heartstopper will wrap up with a feature-length film — not a fourth season.

Adapted by creator Alice Oseman from her best-selling graphic novels, Heartstopper first premiered in 2022 and quickly became a cultural phenomenon.
Season 3, released in October 2024, left fans eager for more — but concerns grew as updates stalled. This week, Netflix officially revealed the plan for a cinematic finale to bring Nick and Charlie’s story to a heartfelt close.

Kit Connor (Nick) and Joe Locke (Charlie) are confirmed to reprise their iconic roles — and will also serve as executive producers for the movie.
Wash Westmoreland (Still Alice) will direct the project.

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

Netflix even teased fans on Instagram with the playful question, "Who fancies a movie then?" — with Joe Locke replying, "I fancy a movie."
Fans flooded the comments with dramatic requests for a movie as long as 3, 7, or even 17 hours!

💔 Nick and Charlie’s Toughest Test Yet

According to the official synopsis, the final movie will dive deep into Nick and Charlie’s relationship as they face their biggest challenge:
Nick, now preparing to leave for university, and Charlie, finding his own independence at school, must navigate the emotional weight of a long-distance relationship.

"Nick and Charlie are 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," Netflix shared.

The Heartstopper movie promises a bittersweet, emotional, and ultimately uplifting end to a love story that captured hearts across generations.

🏳️‍🌈 Why Heartstopper Matters

Since its debut, Heartstopper has been celebrated not just for its sweet love story, but for its honest representation of LGBTQ+ teens, mental health, friendship, and growing up.
Its success helped push forward a new wave of inclusive, optimistic storytelling — and made stars out of Kit Connor, Joe Locke, Yasmin Finney, and Will Gao.

Fans can expect the Heartstopper film to stay true to its heartfelt roots — closing the book on Nick and Charlie with the same warmth, tenderness, and authenticity that made the series a worldwide favorite.
