Fans of The Summer I Turned Pretty were convinced that season 3 marked the emotional conclusion to Belly, Conrad, and Jeremiah’s story. However, Prime Video surprised viewers with an unexpected announcement: the journey isn’t over yet. Instead, the beloved saga will return one last time, this time on the big screen, with a movie that promises to deliver the definitive ending.
The news was revealed during a red-carpet event in Paris held to celebrate the season 3 finale. What began as a farewell party soon turned into a major announcement—Jenny Han, author of the original book trilogy and showrunner of the series, will write and direct the upcoming film. Han herself confirmed: “There is another big milestone left in Belly’s journey, and I thought only a movie could give it its proper due.”
While details about the plot remain tightly under wraps, both fans of the books and the show already have their theories. Spoiler Alert: in Han’s novels, Belly’s story ends with her marriage to Conrad, a moment that the Prime Video adaptation has not yet shown. After the season 3 finale—where Belly and Conrad finally found their way back to each other—many viewers are speculating that the film will revolve around wedding preparations and the challenges that come with them.

Other characters are also expected to have their arcs explored further. Steven and Taylor were last seen planning a future together despite the possibility of moving to San Francisco, while Jeremiah began a new romance with Denise. These unfinished storylines could provide depth to the film’s narrative.
Although no official cast list has been confirmed, it’s hard to imagine The Summer I Turned Pretty: The Movie without its central trio. Lola Tung (Belly), Christopher Briney (Conrad), and Gavin Casalegno (Jeremiah) are expected to reprise their roles, alongside Sean Kaufman (Steven), Rain Spencer (Taylor), and Jackie Chung (Laurel).

Here’s the part fans are most eager to know: the release date. Unfortunately, Prime Video has not yet confirmed when The Summer I Turned Pretty: The Movie will hit screens. The announcement came on 17 September 2025, but production has yet to begin, meaning audiences may have to wait a while before reuniting with the Cousins Beach crew.
Until then, speculation and excitement will continue to grow. One thing is certain: Jenny Han is determined to give Belly’s story the heartfelt, nostalgic conclusion that has made the series resonate with millions of viewers worldwide.
