Season 2 of the Netflix show will pick up right where season 1 ended. In the new season, Charlie and Nick will be seen trying to navigate their romantic relationship. However, Darcy and Tara will end up in a tricky situation as they will face an array of unexpected challenges.

The upcoming season of Heartstopper will also see the gang going on a school trip to the city of lights, Paris, and preparing for prom as well. However, the group will also be struggling to keep up with everything as the final exams will be arriving soon.

Similar to season 1, the series will also shed light upon the serious sides of some of the most important issues. Creator Oseman said in an interview with Tudum that the Netflix show is about:

"Exploring real, serious issues that can be dark, but trying to balance that with that feeling of hope that things can and will get better,...From a writing perspective, that can be really difficult to achieve without making it too dark or without skimming over the darker elements of the story. But striving for that balance is the point of Heartstopper."
