Heartstopper Plot and Cast
We need a second season of Heartstopper to explore all the complications and heartwarming moments of Charlie and Nick’s romance, plus continue to see how Sarah supports her son after he came out to her as bisexual.
In Season 1, we very much see the young love and the beginnings of their relationship. We got to explore the side characters of Heartstopper in a lot more depth when there’s not much room for that in the comics. But that was all part of the fun of it. Season 2 will explore more of the world of Heartstopper.
The cast members expected to come back includes Joe Locke, Kit Connor, Olivia Colman, William Gao, Yasmin Finney, Corinna Brown, Kizzy Edgell, Sebastian Croft, Cormac Hyde-Corrin, Rhea Norwood, Tobie Donovan, Jenny Walser, Fisayo Akinade, Chetna Pandya and Alan Turkington.
