Netflix Has Dropped The Coming-Of-Age LGBTQ Drama ‘Heartstopper’ This April

'Heartstopper' is a Netflix-produced British coming-of-age romance television series based on Alice Oseman's web comic and graphic novel of the same name.

Love, friendship, loyalty, and mental illness are all themes throughout the series. It contains all of Nick and Charlie's minor stories that add up to something bigger.

The series will premiere on Netflix worldwide on 22 April 2022 with eight 30-minute episodes .

Netflix has published a teaser for 'Heartstopper,' which depicts gentle Charlie meeting rugby-loving Nick, as well as all the turmoil, fun, and troubles at their school.

Nick Nelson and Charlie Spring, two British teenagers, attend an all-boys grammar school.

Charlie, a high-strung, openly gay overthinker, and Nick, a happy, soft-hearted rugby player, are forced to sit next to each other in class one day.

For openly gay Charlie, their friendship quickly evolves into something more, but he initially doubts his chances with Nick.

However, love has an unexpected way of working, and Nick is more interested in Charlie than any of them thought.
