Jonathan Bailey Brings His Dreamy Self to Heartstopper
Olivia Colman may not be able to return for Heartstopper season three, but it’s not getting any less A-list in the meantime. The show revealed on April 25 that Jonathan Bailey will be making a cameo on the upcoming third season as Charlie’s Insta-hot classicist crush (Charlie … you’re killing us). Hayley Atwell, best known as Agent Peggy Carter in the MCU, will be playing Nick’s cool aunt, because every gay kid deserves a cool aunt. Plus, Charlie is finally getting a good therapist, who will be played by Eddie Marsan (Ray Donovan). Netflix describes Geoff the therapist, who appears in the graphic novels, as “straight-talking,” apparently unaware that has a different meaning in this particular situation.

“While Heartstopper will always celebrate the joyful and point towards hope,” series creator Alice Oseman told Netflix, “I’m really excited that we are allowing the tone of the show to mature alongside our beloved characters growing up. Mental health, sex, university ambitions, and more.” Heartstopper season three began filming last October and will premiere this October. It’s timed perfectly with Kit Connor’s Broadway debut opposite Rachel Zegler in Romeo + Juliet. A true loverboy never stops yearning.
