Production Details and Plot Teasers
Currently, the production process for the third season of “The Summer I Turned Pretty” is in the pipeline. The show recounts the story of Belly, a character pulled into a romantic triangle with two siblings, Conrad and Jeremiah. The narrative explores her emotional strife as she juggles her emotions between two conflicting feelings of love.
Other highlighted roles in the show include Belly’s sibling Steven, her mom Laurel, and her best friend Taylor. The plot for Season 3 is presumed to take inspiration from the ending of the original book trilogy where Belly is torn between choosing one of the brothers.
Suspicions and Expectations for the Show’s Future
Gavin Casalegno, portraying Jeremiah in the series, previously supported the idea of altering the conclusion of the central romantic tryst. However, the production team is remaining mum on whether the show’s depiction will echo the trilogy events or not. There is further conjecture on whether Season 3 would be the show’s end since the book series consists of only three novels. Yet, according to Prime Video, plans to expand the series universe are in the works.
