Season Four of The Summer I Turned Pretty on the Horizon?
The popular teen drama series, 'The Summer I Turned Pretty', is concluding its run with a three-season finale. The show, which is an adaptation of Jenny Han's beloved book series, is currently airing its third season.
Jenny Han, the author and showrunner, has confirmed that the third season, which premiered in July 2025, will be the last. In a statement, Han said, "Three books, three seasons. It feels right to me." The decision to end the series with the third season aligns with the show's direct adaptation of Han's book trilogy.
The third season, titled 'We'll Always Have Summer', is based on the third book in the series. Lola Tung, who plays Belly in the show, has expressed her openness to potential future seasons. However, Han has mentioned that there are no plans for future seasons at the moment. The continuation of the story, Han stated, depends on having a great idea and the cast's enthusiasm.
Tung, who has become a fan favourite for her portrayal of Belly, has expressed her gratitude for being part of Han's cinematic universe. She considers it a privilege and would be willing to return if asked. Tung is ready to move on to new roles after 'The Summer I Turned Pretty', comparing her feelings to graduating.
