    The show became a cult instantly. The show is an adaptation of Alice Oseman’s graphic novel with the same title. In May, the streaming platform announced that they will renew the show for two more seasons. Social media gave a positive response to Heartstopper, and the queer people especially approved of the representation of gay and trans characters in the show.

    For the new season, the original cast will stay intact. There were uncertainties about whether Yasmin Fimmey who plays Elle will be back for the season. The reason was that she was selected for ‘Doctor Who.’ However, the makers confirmed that she will be back for the new season. The cast includes Kit Connor (who plays Nick), Joe Locke (Charlie), William Gao (Tao), Tobie Donovan (Isaac), Corinna Brown (Tara), Kizzy Edgell (Darcy), Sebastian Croft (Ben), Rhea Norwood (Imogen), and Jenny Walser (Tori).
