Jonathan Bailey's 'Heartstopper' Cameo Teased In New Trailer For Season 3

Just two days after his swoon-worthy appearance at the Emmy Awards, Jonathan Bailey is setting fans’ hearts aflutter once again.

The “Bridgerton” actor can be spotted in a trailer released Tuesday for the third season of “Heartstopper,” Netflix’s LGBTQ-inclusive teen series.

He portrays Jack Maddox, a musician turned scholar from Alice Oseman’s “Heartstopper” graphic novels, on which the Netflix show is based.

Jack certainly leaves a lasting impression on teen boyfriends Charlie Spring (played by Joe Locke) and Nick Nelson (Kit Connor), who met as students at a secondary school in small-town England.

Bailey’s casting — first revealed earlier this year — is just one of several surprises circling Season 3 of “Heartstopper,” which hits Netflix on Oct. 3. The new episodes follow Charlie and Nick as they “face their relationship’s biggest challenge yet,” according to press notes.

As for their group of pals, which includes Elle Argent (Yasmin Finney) and Isaac Henderson (Tobie Donovan), they, too, “must learn to lean on those they love when life doesn’t go to plan.”

The first season of “Heartstopper” premiered on Netflix in 2022 to sterling reviews and impassioned fan discourse on social media, putting Connor and Locke on the Hollywood map.
