In a quaint suburban locale of Windsor, a new wave of excitement has breezed through as Netflix’s Heartstopper embarks on its second season’s filming journey. Windsor residents have been bustling with excitement as sightings of the film crew become the town’s latest chatter. The stillness of St Marks Road was recently stirred by the bustling activities outside the series’ cherished Charlie’s residence, portrayed by the budding actor Joe Locke.
Social media lit up as residents shared glimpses and anecdotes of their encounters with the film crew. They were informed that the crew was in town filming a Netflix comedy drama, which only fanned the flames of their excitement.
However, as of now, there has been no official nod from Netflix regarding the ongoing filming, leaving a veil of mystery and anticipation over the project.
The romantic British saga, Heartstopper, rolled its cameras for season two on the sunny morning of September 22. The picturesque locales of Slough and Windsor have been chosen as the canvas to paint the continuing narrative of young love blossoming amidst the trials and tribulations of adolescence.
Heartstopper tenderly explores the voyage of self-discovery and love between two schoolboys, unravelling the tapestry of their friendship as it blossoms into something more profound. The tale of young love and social dynamics is brought to life by the promising talents of Kit Connor and Joe Locke, who essay the roles of Nick and Charlie respectively.
The curtains were first raised on Heartstopper’s narrative in April 2021 when the filming for season one commenced. The maiden season made its grand debut a year later in April 2022, captivating audiences with its heartfelt narrative and relatable characters.
The locales of Windsor have become recognizable spots for the Heartstopper fans, as many iconic scenes were filmed against the charming backdrop of Windsor Riverside, Bath Island, and Pleasure Ground. Moreover, E-Act Park Burnham Academy lent its fields for the rugby scenes, while Hollywood Bowl in High Wycombe also featured in this emotional roller-coaster.
While the anticipation for Heartstopper season two builds, an official release date remains under wraps. However, the speculation among the eager fans and insiders points towards a 2023 release, keeping the excitement simmering.
