The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3: New release window, plot, cast, and everything we know so far

Author Jenny Han created The Summer I Turned Pretty, an American coming-of-age romantic drama series based on her novel trilogy of the same name. The show explores youth and love, and is set mostly in the fictional Cousins Beach.

The story follows Isabelle "Belly" Conklin, who spends every summer there with her mother, Laurel, and brother, Steven, as well as Laurel's best friend, Susannah, and her sons, Conrad and Jeremiah Fisher. Belly has been in love with Conrad since she can remember, but she also has feelings for Jeremiah, her first kiss.

The series debuted with seven episodes on June 17, 2022. Season two premiered on July 14, 2023, and new episodes were released weekly until the finale on August 18, 2023.

Season 3 of The Summer I Turned Pretty will debut in the summer of 2025, as announced on May 14, 2024, by Jennifer Salke from Amazon MGM Studios, creator Jenny Han, and stars Lola Tung, Christopher Briney, and Gavin Casalegno on Instagram. With 11 episodes, this season will be longer than the previous ones and production is currently underway.

What to expect from The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3?

The third season will stream on Prime Video and is expected to wrap up Belly and the Fisher brothers' complex love story.

Belly is still torn between the Fisher brothers and has finally taken a stand. As suggested by the actors, the season tries to stay true to the last book, "We'll Always Have Summer."

Season 3 is expected to stick closer to the original plot, despite Season 2's deviation. Fans can expect an emotional ride as Belly navigates the complexities of growing up, young love, and the consequences of her decision.

Belly's journey will come to a satisfying conclusion in the upcoming season, which will center on nostalgia and summer romance.
