“The Summer I Turned Pretty” Movie Announced After Series Finale: What Fans Can Expect

The Summer I Turned Pretty isn’t over just yet. Hours after the highly anticipated Season 3 finale dropped, Prime Video confirmed that the hit YA drama will officially be getting a feature-length movie. The news sent fans into a frenzy online, especially after learning that Lola Tung (Belly Conklin) and Christopher Briney (Conrad Fisher) are set to reprise their roles, with series creator Jenny Han writing and directing the project.

The announcement was first shared on September 17, and Han later teased the project in interviews, saying, “There’s another big milestone for Belly, so we’ll continue with that journey. I want to give the fans the ending they’ve been waiting for.” Star Lola Tung admitted she had been sitting on the secret for weeks, calling it “so exciting” to finally share. Meanwhile, Briney praised the fandom’s passion, saying the series has been “life-changing” for everyone involved.

Details about the plot remain under wraps, though fans of Han’s original book trilogy speculate the film could cover Belly and Conrad’s life together after the events of the series. With the script already drafted, production is expected to move quickly, though the movie isn’t slated for release until 2026.

For those who need a refresher, The Summer I Turned Pretty is based on Jenny Han’s bestselling YA novels and follows Belly as she navigates love, heartbreak, and growing up while entangled with brothers Conrad and Jeremiah Fisher. Since premiering in 2022, the series has become a breakout hit for Prime Video, with its mix of teen romance, coming-of-age drama, and Taylor Swift-heavy soundtrack. 

Season 3 alone drew tens of millions of viewers globally, dominated TikTok trends, and had fans debating #TeamConrad vs. #TeamJeremiah all summer long.
