In the season two poster, also shared by Netflix, the pair can be seen walking away from the iconic Parisian monument, as their friends can be seen in the background.

The release followed a clip which was released in June, along with the episode titles. At the time, Netflix told fans: 'Take an exclusive look at the first scene of the upcoming second season of Heartstopper.'

The video is introduced by Corinna Brown and Kizzy Edgell, who play Tara and Darcy in the series. In the scene, fans get to see Charlie waking up with a grin on his face as he sees a message from his boyfriend, Nick.

The compilation of clips then show Charlie messaging him as he grabs some breakfast and gets the bus to school. When he finally arrives at the classroom he can't see Nick, but Nick surprises him from behind.

What are the titles of the Heartstopper episodes?

During the video, the episode titles were also revealed.

  2. Family
  3. Promise
  4. Challenge
  5. Heat
  6. Truth/Dare
  7. Sorry
  8. Perfect

Speaking about the series, executive producer Patrick Walkers said: “Continuing the story of Nick, Charlie and the rest of the Heartstopper gang for season two has been an absolute privilege. Alice Oseman and I have been able to watch the actors evolve their performances in every way, and this season is so emotional because of their amazing work. Get ready!”

In the teaser clip, starring cast can be heard teasing what is to come in the upcoming second season. Yasmin Finney, who plays Elle, says: "There's so many things happen with Elle this season that you're not ready for.

"I would say Elle is different in the sense she's more confident. She surrounds herself with people that elevate her."

Describing the scripts as "amazing", Kit Connor, who plays Nick, also reveals that season two feels "cool and fresh" and "just a different vibe to season one".

On top of that, Joe Locke, who plays Charlie, reveals: "Charlie goes on more of a journey. His story's a bit more mature."

In December 2022, Netflix and the official Heartstopper account shared a photo of the show's creator Alice Oseman, along with two of the lead actors Kit Connor (Nick) and Joe Locke (Charlie), confirming that season 2 of the show had wrapped!

Captioning their photo: 'And that's a wrap on Heartstopper Season 2… à bientôt! 🍂', the post attracted a lot of attention from fans, with one writing: 'Super excited... so can't wait for S2. 😍💖 ~ Meanwhile I keep binge watching S1 on repeat. 🥰🍂', while another wrote: 'Okay now we need release date!!! :D'.

Last year, we caught up with Kit and Joe and got them to answer some fan questions. Kit, who plays the role of bisexual teenager Nick Nelson, said that the character was an "extremely special character" to him. He went on to say: "I think there's not enough bisexual representation in mainstream media, or really any kind of media.

Joe also revealed at the 2022 BAFTAs that his ideal casting for season two of Heartstopper would be, however this has not been confirmed!
