Maidenhead, Get Ready to Greet Heartstopper as Season 3 Filming Starts Next Month
The next Heartstopper chapter promises to be as cozy as the previous ones.
Heartstopper fans are probably feeling the luckiest right now. Amidst show delays caused by Hollywood strikes, the changing entertainment industry and other factors, the future of the love story between Charlie Spring and Nick Nelson looks solid.
Season 2 landed on Netflix mere two months ago, and the filming for Season 3 is already underway. Of course, most of the credit for such a quick turnaround goes to the show's creator, Alice Oseman, who wasted no time in bringing another of her graphic novel masterpieces to the screen.
And while dedicated viewers are thrilled with the new chapter, there is one group of fans who have the biggest reason to celebrate.
Heartstopper returns to Maidenhead
Viewers in the county of Berkshire will be able to catch a glimpse of the Heartstopper cast and crew this October when they come to the idyllic town of Maidenhead to film Season 3.
This is not the first time Heartstopper has used Maidenhead as a filming location. Viewers may remember the town's unique corner shop where Charlie, Elle, Tao and Isaac buy drinks in the premiere episode of Season 2.
Now, film crews are preparing to resume production on Heartstopper in Maidenhead. According to the Observer, in addition to the convenience store, one of the town's locations will be used as the home of an unnamed character.
Cozy locations create the right vibe
In addition, Heartstopper is likely to return to other locations it has used in Berkshire and Buckinghamshire. A house on St. Marks Road in Windsor is known to viewers as Charlie's home. And the outdoor scenes at Truham Grammar School were filmed at the now-empty E-ACT Burnham Park Academy.
Together, these locations help create a quaint atmosphere that serves as the perfect backdrop for Alice Oseman's wholesome coming-of-age story of love and friendship.
Even those viewers who've never been to the English countryside can feel through the screen the charming, homey vibe of the fictional town where Charlie and Nick live and find love. Good thing we will be able to enjoy this one-of-a-kind ambience for at least one more season.
