Given the movie is simply a continuation of the TV show, the stars are going to be back to finish off this story after audiences across the globe have fallen in love with their portrayals of Belly and Conrad.
Han’s novels served as the basis for The Summer I Turned Pretty shows, with season three taking its cue from We’ll Always Have Summer.
However, the big thing that The Summer I Turned Pretty didn’t adapt from the books was Belly and Conrad’s wedding, which is now expected to be depicted onscreen in the movie.
Moreover, fans are likely to get a more satisfying ending for all of the character and most likely Han will be opening the door to some The Summer I Turned Pretty spin-offs.
With the popularity of The Summer I Turned Pretty, any follow-ups are likely to be successful given the huge interest in the show.
Han created a spin-off from her To All The Boys movies in the form of XO, Kitty on Netflix which is going to be returning for a third season after debuting in 2023.
