The 35-year-old actor has already amassed acclaim and praise for his acting with the Critics’ Choice Television Award for Best Supporting Actor. Famed for his acting prowess in Bridgerton, Jonathan Bailey will now transition to Heartstopper, where he lies set to play Jack Maddox. First glimpses at the actor holding a trans-rights advocacy placard as well as a book titled 10 Things I Hate About Plato recently surfaced on the Internet.

Wearing a gray fleece coat over a white shirt, Bailey stood in front of a white pull-down screen, likely as part of photoshoots for the character. While no other concrete details on the nature or role of his character have come forward, it remains confirmed that Jack Maddox will debut in the next season of Heartstopper. Additionally, with recent set photos having confirmed season three milestones, fans now await news of a release schedule.

Along the lines of this tease, fans can have a brief sense of direction for the incoming season based on the events of the last one.

Season three to continue from the emotional cliffhanger of the last

The young-adult Netflix drama received widespread praise for the brilliant acting brought forth by Joe Locke’s Charlie Spring and Kit Connor’s Nick Nelson. Balancing a perfect stride in its tone and pacing, the LGBT heart-tugger found its place as one of the top ten most-watched English-language series on the streamer’s charts. However, after season two ended in tearful suspense, fans have longed for more.

Premiered on August 2023, season two of Heartsopper ended while exploring the challenges faced by Nick in making his relationship public. Moreover, it also had developments centered around Elle and Tao as well as Tara and Darcy. However, whether after the prom experience, Charlie sends his love message to Nick or not, left a cliffhanger that will form the base of season three.
