This is not a drill — The Summer I Turned Pretty movie is officially in development.
On September 17, the same day The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 finale aired, it was confirmed that the series is not over and will continue with a feature film.
The Summer I Turned Pretty: The Movie was announced by Jenny Han herself at the special series finale celebration in Paris, France on Wednesday. “There is another big milestone left in Belly’s journey, and I thought only a movie could give it its proper due,” Han said, according to Variety. “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.”
Per the outlet, Amazon MGM Studios and Prime Video have greenlit the movie, which will serve as the true final conclusion of the YA phenomenon; Han, the author of the original trilogy the hit series is based on and the show’s creator, is on board to write the film.

Currently, no other plot details are available besides Han’s tease of the one “big milestone left in Belly’s journey.” However, based on the image shared by The Summer I Turned Pretty and Prime Video’s official social media accounts, it is confirmed that Lola Tung and Christopher Briney will return to reprise their roles as Belly Conklin and Conrad Fisher, respectively.
The Summer I Turned Pretty ended its third and final chapter with a bang — the eleventh and final episode of the season, titled “At Last,” clocked in at an hour and twenty minutes runtime. Even with that extended runtime, fans were left desperately wanting more of the Cousins Beach crew and Belly’s story. Now, Christmas in Paris has come early!
