As the summer heats up, so does the anticipation for the return of the beloved series ‘The Summer I Turned Pretty,’ which is set to premiere its second season on Amazon Prime Video. This season promises to delve deeper into the complexities of young love and family dynamics, continuing the narrative of Belly and her summer adventures at Cousins Beach.
The series, based on the trilogy by Jenny Han, who also serves as the show’s creator and executive producer, explores the poignant and transformative experiences of Isabel “Belly” Conklin. The first season, mirroring the first book, captures the essence of first love and the evolving dynamics within her family and the Fisher family, with whom she spends every summer.
The upcoming season is adapted from the second book in Han’s series, ‘It’s Not Summer Without You.’ This season is set to explore the aftermath of the events of the last summer, diving into the emotional and romantic developments that continue to shape Belly’s life and her relationships with the Fisher brothers, Conrad and Jeremiah.
Mark your calendars for Friday, July 14, 2024, as ‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’ Season 2 kicks off with a three-episode premiere on Amazon Prime Video. Following the premiere, the series will release new episodes weekly, culminating in the season finale on Friday, August 18, 2024. Here’s a quick look at the schedule:
To watch the new season, viewers will need an Amazon Prime membership, available at $14.99 per month or $139 per year. Amazon also offers a free trial for new users and discounted rates through Prime Access and Prime Student programs.
The core cast from the first season returns, with Lola Tung as Belly, Christopher Briney as Conrad, and Gavin Casalegno as Jeremiah. Season 2 also welcomes new characters, adding depth and intrigue to the existing narrative.
Jenny Han has hinted at deviations from the book in this adaptation, ensuring even the most devoted book fans will find new surprises. These changes are crafted by Han herself, adding a personal touch and fresh elements to the beloved story.
Following the pattern of the books, fans can eagerly anticipate a third season, potentially adapting the final book of the trilogy. This continuation would complete the summer saga of Belly, capturing her growth from a young girl to a young woman.
