Kit Connor and Joe Locke Answer ‘Heartstopper’ Fans’ Biggest Questions
Sep 11, 2026
They do terribly.
I think Charlie would be great as Obi-Wan.
I think that's absolute rubbish.
I've got a bunch of fan questions here.
Oh, wonderful.
They're so excited for the film.
The first one's from Heartstop of Brazil,
and they would love to know,
what were the biggest differences
between filming the movie and filming the show,
especially now that you're executive producers?
Time, I think.
We had more time.
When you're shooting a TV show,
especially one that isn't sort of humongous budget,
you shoot a lot of scenes in every day,
so you're sort of like really trying to move
as fast as you can,
whereas with the film,
you have a little bit more time to breathe.
You shoot less scenes in a day, and yeah.
Lucy wants to know,
knowing this is the last time
the fans are seeing Nick and Charlie,
where do you see them in 10 years' time?
What do you think they're doing?
I think they're happy.
I think they've got really nice, normal jobs,
a normal, happy life.
The thing I like about the film
is that it sort of leaves it so open-ended,
I even, they could be anywhere.
They could have married, divorced,
they could be anywhere,
but their love lasts forever.
Yeah, yeah.
V wants to know,
what is your favourite track
from the Heartstopper Forever film?
Ooh, question.
There's some really good ones on the film.
There are.
But I also can't really remember them.
I always find that quite tricky.
And normally when someone asks that,
I go like, oh, the Wager Project song in it.
There's a great Wager Project song in the film.
Is there which one?
I can't remember.
You can't remember?
Sorry, that's why I didn't say it.
Do you have a favourite song from the series?
Yeah, I would say that,
again, ordinarily I would actually say
like, You're So Pretty or My Vine,
but I mean, there's that Black Friday section
in season three and episode four
that is, I just think,
the song with that sort of montage-y moment
is really beautiful.
Yeah, really, really powerful.
River wants to know,
did you guys steal anything
from the Heartstopper Forever set,
like a final memento?
We had more input on the costumes this year,
so I basically just put Charlie
in my clothes that I would wear.
Love that.
So afterwards I was like,
oh, I guess I'll take these t-shirts
and a few pairs of jeans.
Amazingly.
I also took some jeans.
I don't know if I really took anything else,
unfortunately.
No.
We didn't have that many props in the film.
Sure, that's not true,
but I don't think I took any.
Jeans and t-shirts are great.
You need those.
Exactly.
Those are important.
Anakin wants to know,
what superhero would you associate
with your respective characters,
given that Nick is a huge Marvel fan
and Joe, you are in the MCU?
Well, I mean,
as I wore a Captain America costume
in the show, I would say that.
Yeah.
Who'd you always be?
Huh?
I don't actually know what Charlie's would be.
It's cop out to say.
My character, so.
But it's still iconic, though.
But I actually probably would be,
so there you go.
Another fun question.
Fake Agatha wants to know,
what do you think Charlie and Nick would do
in a zombie apocalypse?
How'd they get on?
I think they'd do terribly.
I think Charlie would be great in a zombie apocalypse.
I think that's absolute rubbish.
They're just sweet kids.
Sweet kids.
I think Charlie's got an edge to him,
though.
He could.
Yeah.
He came to it.
Great.
Last of us crossover.
Out of the two of you,
who do you think sends the most random things
to the cast group chat at 2 a.m.?
Ooh.
I've sent a few random things recently.
You've sent a few random things recently.
Not random.
I haven't sent anything to the group chat recently.
Not fully random.
They're not fully random,
but they're sort of like, oh.
Yeah.
What were they?
I definitely can't say.
Fair enough, fair enough.
Well, wasn't one of them just like,
oh, do you remember when this happened?
Or like, can't believe that this.
What was that?
It was something like a.
It was us doing something that I'd forgotten
we did.
Yeah.
And you were like, what the hell?
Isn't that crazy?
We were like, yeah.
He didn't reply.
Well, I can imagine with the show going on for so long
and then the film,
there's probably so many memories
that you didn't realise.
I think my point of sending that was like,
isn't it weird that like,
we've got to do all these crazy things
and yet some of them must like,
we've done so many crazy things
that even some of the crazy things I've forgotten about.
Yeah.
Like, I could never have imagined five years ago
doing so many crazy, cool things
that I'd even forget about some of the cool things.
Exactly.
It's been so life-changing
and people are going to love this final chapter so much.
So thank you guys and congratulations.
Thank you.
Thanks.
