Heartstopper Update: Final Graphic Novel Set for July; Film to Follow

Kit Connor, Joe Locke, “Heartstopper”

Fans of Nick and Charlie will have to wait for the page to turn before the credits roll.

Author Alice Oseman confirmed to  Deadline at the London Book Fair that the upcoming film, Heartstopper Forever, will not premiere until after the final graphic novel is in the hands of readers.

Oseman emphasized her commitment to the source material’s legacy:

“It won’t be coming out before the book… It was so important to me that the book comes out first, so people can experience the end of the story in the book. The series was the adaptation, not the other way around.”

To prepare for the cinematic finale, fans should mark their calendars for the release of Heartstopper Volume 6:

  • United Kingdom: July 2

  • United States & Canada: July 7

Once the final chapter has been read, the official countdown for the film adaptation can begin.
