Shout out to all the moms out there. You've seen things.
Clearly the Heartstopper cast is all grown up, and they want the world to know it. In
just a few short years, Netflix's gay rom-com cuties Joe Locke and Kit Conner went from
twee teenage boys to 22-year-old men. And now Netflix is setting them off in style with
a feature-length film called Heartstopper Forever that promises to be more age-appropriate.
Did you catch their viral interview with The Guardian? In it, Joe revealed the movie has
a lot more sex, and said it would be weird not to show it. However, filming the intimacy
scenes was another story. He described it as a camera right next to your face while
wearing a c*** sock. I'm sorry, did someone lose a sock?
His partner in crime, Kit, said it was like being in a silent room with lots of middle-aged
men, aka Palm Springs. Kit also got a bit of backlash when he said he wanted their beloved
characters Nick and Charlie to cheat on each other in the movie, because, quote, young
people do that. Bro, is this Heartstopper or Love Island? Thankfully, Kit kept it classy
when sitting down with the outlet Pride.
I'm really happy with how the intimate scenes and the sex scenes came out. I think they
are really beautiful, and they do kind of all serve the story in their own different
ways. They each send their own message about where Nick and Charlie are. They showcase
Nick and Charlie's love.
So what exactly goes down in the movie? Reportedly, there are several moments, one public hanky-panky
on a pier, and another scene involving mutual masturbation. Yep. Up until now, the award-winning
series has kept it pretty PG, with lots of kissing, which led to a rumor among the cast
that Joe has, wait for it, bad coffee breath. Metro UK asking the tough questions at the
London premiere.
We've done a lot of kissing scenes. Joe's very good, and we've been doing it for a while.
He's maybe done it once or twice, but haven't we?
But on the record, it never happened, and I don't even drink coffee anymore.
Fake news! And speaking of kisses, you may remember Kit previously went viral on the
press trail for his 2025 movie Warfare when he shared a smooch with Charles Melton. Me
next? Since Heartstopper premiered in 2022, the guy's career have blown up. Movies, the
MCU, Broadway, and they're not afraid to roast each other about it either.
Kit, you were in my top 50 sexiest man in the world.
Cool.
Joe, you deserve the Emmy.
Kit, you deserve your Tony nomination.
That's the sign of a true friendship. You can f*** with each other. Heartstopper Forever
hits Netflix July 13th, perfect for you and the Nick or Charlie in your life.
I think it's ending in the perfect way, and there's nothing worse than things that drag
on for too long, and when you get to season 7 of a show and you're 35, and you're playing
a 17-year-old, like, let's hang it up now. The money can't be that good.
35? Yeah, that's so old. Time to hang it up, people.
