Heartstopper Season 3 Adds Hayley Atwell, Jonathan Bailey, & More to Cast

The cast of Netflix‘s Hearstopper Season 3 continues to grow, with Deadline reporting that Hayley Atwell and Jonathan Bailey, among others, have been added to the cast.

Atwell (Captain America: The First Avenger) and Bailey (Bridgerton) will also be joined by Eddie Marsan (Ray Donovan) as new cast members in the upcoming season.

Atwell will step into the role as Nick’s Aunt Diane, who takes Nick on a vacation over the summer. Bailey will have a cameo appearance as Instagram-famous Jack Maddox, a crush of Charlie’s. Finally, Marsan will join the series as Geoff, Charlie’s therapist and a fan-favorite of the graphic novels.

The trio will join a cast that includes a mostly returning cast from the first two seasons, sans Olivia Colman, who had to leave the series ahead of Season 3.

Who’s involved in Heartstopper?

Heartstopper is led by Kit Connor as Nick, Joe Locke as Charlie, Yasmin Finney as Elle Argent, Corinna Brown as Tara Jones, William Gao as Tao Xu, Kizzy Edgell as Darcy Olsson, and Tobie Donovan as Isaac Henderson. Season 2 also introduced new cast members Leila Khan as Sahar Zahid, Jack Barton as Nick’s older brother David Nelson, Bradley Riches as James McEwan, Nima Taleghani as Mr. Farouk, Bel Priestley as Naomi, Ash Self as Felix, and Thibault de Montalembert as Nick’s father.

“Charlie would like to tell Nick that he loves him. Nick also has something important to say to Charlie,” reads the official synopsis for Season 3. “As the summer holiday ends and the months race on, the friends begin to realize that the school year will come with both its joys and its challenges. As they learn more about each other and their relationships, plan social events and parties, and start thinking about university choices, everyone must learn to lean on those they love when life doesn’t go to plan.”

Based on Alice Oseman’s graphic novel series of the same name, Heartstopper is written and created by Oseman with Euros Lyn serving as director. It is produced by See-Saw Films.
