We FINALLY have the third instalment of the Kissing Booth film franchise, with the teen rom-com's threequel landing on Netflix today (11th August). Fans can finally welcome Elle Evans, played by Joey King, back to their screens with open arms, as the teen works her way through her 'Beach Bucket List' in her final summer before college.

Clear your schedule and get the popcorn at the ready, as the almost two-hour film is officially ready for you to stream at your leisure - and, of course, we can finally find out if Elle has chosen to attend Harvard University or the University of California, Berkeley.

The trailer was released on Netflix's YouTube channel back in early July, showing characters Elle, Noah, Lee and Rachel, played by Joey King, Jacob Elordi, Joel Courtney and Meganne Young, celebrate their "last summer at the beach house", before Elle discovers her and Lee's childhood 'Beach Bucket List'.

WATCH: The Kissing Booth 3 official trailer:

Elle then narrates: "A long time ago, Lee and I put together a list of all the crazy things we wanted to do together before going to college", before continuing: "But when you decide to escape reality, eventually you're gonna have to come back to it", as she receives a call from Cal-Berkeley admissions.

As fans will know, The Kissing Booth 2 left us on quite the cliffhanger, leaving us wondering which college Elle Evans would choose - will it be the vibrant spirited Cal-Berkeley or the intellectual Harvard?

Elle found herself choosing between joining her hunky boyfriend Noah, or staying closer to her family and attending Cal-Berk with her BFF Lee.

We're getting SERIOUS summer vibes - pass us the popcorn! ☀️

The Kissing Booth 3 is available to stream on Netflix now.
