Although the full plot line has yet to be revealed, when speaking with Metro, creator and writer Alice Oseman said mental health will be a “big element” in season three: “We’re going to continue to look at that in a big way and explore how that affects Nick and Charlie’s relationship, and all of the other friendships in the show.
“So people who’ve read volume four will have a little bit of an idea of what is coming. I’m really excited to take the show into that new place.”
Locke echoed Oseman’s comments in an interview with The Today Show, saying: “Every season of our show, we grow up with the characters more, and this season is definitely a bit raunchier; it’s still Heartstopper, but we also deal with some darker issues.
“Charlie, my character, he deals with some mental health issues, which we tackle in this season, which I’m very excited for people to see.”
As well as Charlie’s aforementioned arc, other crucial storylines that we can expect are as follows: Darcy’s toxic relationship with her homophobic mum; Elle attending the Lambert School of Art; Nick being a proud bicon; and Imogen’s untouchable status as the greatest ally in history.
