Netflix has released the first clip from the highly-anticipated Heartstopper Season 3, which features an exclusive snipper of Billie Eilish’s newest single “Birds of a Feather” from her upcoming album Hit Me Hard and Soft.
The video provides fans with a first look at Joe Locke and Kit Connor’s return as Charlie and Nick. The next installment to the streamer’s popular teen dramedy will be available for streaming on October 3 with eight new episodes.
“Charlie would like to tell Nick that he loves him. Nick also has something important to say to Charlie,” reads the synopsis for Season 3. “As the summer holiday ends and the months race on, the friends begin to realise that the school year will come with both its joys and its challenges. As they learn more about each other and their relationships, plan social events and parties and start thinking about university choices, everyone must learn to lean on those they love when life doesn’t go to plan.”
