TSITP new season
Based on the best-selling series by Jenny Han, the drama follows an ever-evolving love triangle between a girl and two brothers her family vacationed with every summer.
“It’s the end of her junior year of college, and Belly’s looking forward to another summer in Cousins with her soulmate, Jeremiah. Her future seems set, until some core-shaking events bring her first love Conrad back into her life,” a synopsis of the new season says.
“Now on the brink of adulthood, Belly finds herself at a crossroads and must decide which brother has her heart. Summer will never be the same.”
The multi-generational drama, starring Lola Tung, Gavin Casalegno and Christopher Briney, made its debut in summer of 2022 and has since become a “global phenomenon” after its second season more than doubled the viewership in 2023, according to Prime Video.
TSITP filming around NC
Nearly two years later, fans will finally get to see how Belly’s fairytale ending will conclude — which was filmed along the Carolina Coast and around the Raleigh region.
While there wasn’t a new summer season to watch last year, local fans got a behind-the-scenes look when film crews and cast members were spotted near the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
TSITP release date
The upcoming 11-episode season will stream exclusively on Prime Video with two episodes released on Wednesday, July 16, followed by a new episode weekly until Wednesday, Sept. 17.
