Netflix's Heartstopper Images Reveal First Look At Charlie & Nick
Netflix has released first look images ofupcoming teen drama Heartstopper, a highly-anticipated adaptation of Alice Oseman’s popular YA webcomic. Heartstopper, which began in 2016, follows British teenagers Charlie Spring and Nick Nelson as they form an unlikely friendship after being made to sit together in class. The two unexpectedly begin to fall for each other and must learn to navigate life, love, and everything in-between all while dealing with the trials and tribulations of coming out and Charlie’s mental illness. Netflix announced that they would be making a live-action Heartstopper adaptation last year, ordering eight episodes written by Oseman and directed by Euros Lyn (Doctor Who, Sherlock).
The cast was revealed in April last year, with Joe Locke and Kit Connor leading the show as Charlie and Nick respectively.

The new images also allow fans to glimpse Charlie’s bedroom as well as the school where much of Heartstopper takes place. See the images of Charlie, Nick, Elle (Yasmin Finney), Tara (Corinna Brown), Darcy (Kizzy Edgell), and Tao (William Gao) below:
