Heartstopper season 2 opening scene released early by Netflix
Get ready to say "hi" to eight new episodes.
Netflix has unveiled the opening scene of Heartstopper season 2 as part of its fan event TUDUM, which features the return of Charlie Spring (Joe Locke) and Nick Nelson (Kit Connor).
The first season saw their dynamic evolve from friendship to romance, with Nick having to confront the daunting challenge of coming out to his friends and mother (played by none other than Olivia Colman).
Things have certainly progressed since then, with this opening clip establishing their relationship as firmly official, with Charlie sending a series of cute text messages as a new school day gets underway.
Without further ado, here's the clip in full, featuring an introduction from Heartstopper co-stars Corinna Brown (Tara Jones) and Kizzy Edgell (Darcy Olsson). Watch now:
While the second season gets off to a rosy start, Heartstopper creator Alice Oseman has teased that the gang will face challenges in episodes to come – particularly Nick, who deals with the aftermath of coming out as bisexual.
