The Summer I Turned Pretty series may have come to an end, but viewers’ time with Lola Tung’s Belly and Christopher Briney’s Conrad has not.
Prime Video today announced that a feature film installation written and directed by Jenny Han will conclude the story, which based on Han’s beloved trilogy of books. Plot details are under wraps.
“There is another big milestone left in Belly’s journey, and I thought only a movie could give it its proper due,” Han said. “I’m so grateful to Prime Video for continuing to support my vision for this story and for making it possible to share this final chapter with the fans.”
The Season 3 finale arrived Wednesday at midnight, watching Conrad make it to Paris and express to Belly that he still loves her. He also witnesses her life in France and all the new friends she’s made, questioning internally if she is dating Benito (Fernando Cattori). It becomes clear that the pair have broken up, and Conrad and Belly finally got together, but she went a bit back and forth before following him to his train to Brussels to tell him she will always choose him.
Meanwhile, back in Boston and later at the Cousins Beach House, Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno) is honing his skills as a chef, and Taylor (Rain Spencer) organized a PR campaign for him. He cooked for a small group to celebrate at the beach house, where Taylor and Steven hashed out their future after Taylor found out that Denise (Isabella Briggs) and Steven got seed money for their videogame development venture — in San Francisco. Taylor heard this from Denise first, but she told Steven she wanted to move to California with him.
