The Official Season 3 Release Schedule on Prime Video

2. No TSITP Season 4: The Series Finale Confirmation
For fans searching for "TSITP Season 4," the news is that Season 4 is not happening. The third season was always intended to be the final installment of the television series, aligning with Jenny Han’s original three-book trilogy.
The decision to conclude the series after Season 3 allows the show to provide a complete, satisfying narrative arc for Belly, the Fisher brothers, and the other core characters like Laurel Park and Taylor. The final season directly addresses the cliffhanger from Season 2 and resolves the central conflict that has defined the series since the beginning: who Belly ultimately chooses.
What to Expect from the Final Season Plot
Season 3 is based on *We'll Always Have Summer*, and the plot jumps forward in time, which will be a major shift for the show.
- Two-Year Time Jump: The story picks up two years after the events of Season 2.
- College Life: Belly Conklin and Jeremiah Fisher are now inseparable, attending the same college, solidifying their relationship.
- The Unraveling: Despite their commitment, the unresolved feelings and tension surrounding Conrad Fisher—who is also in college—will inevitably resurface. The central catalyst for the final drama is a massive, life-altering mistake that forces Belly to confront her true feelings and make a choice that will determine the rest of her life.
- The Love Triangle Climax: The season is structured to bring the "Team Conrad" vs. "Team Jeremiah" debate to its absolute climax, forcing Belly to choose her future, a decision that will impact her relationship with both brothers and her connection to Cousins Beach.
3. The Summer I Turned Pretty: The Movie — The Future of the Franchise
The most exciting piece of new information for fans is the confirmation of a feature film follow-up titled *The Summer I Turned Pretty: The Movie*. This announcement came after the Season 3 finale, providing a surprising continuation of the story beyond the book trilogy.
Author and show creator Jenny Han confirmed the development of the film, stating that she has already finished a draft of the screenplay. The movie is a massive win for fans who felt that three seasons weren't enough to fully explore the lives of these beloved characters.
Release Date and Plot Speculation for the TSITP Movie
While the feature film is confirmed, a release date has not yet been announced by Prime Video or Amazon Studios. Given the typical production timeline for a film of this scale, the earliest a movie might be completed and released would likely be late 2026 or 2027, but this is pure speculation.
The plot of the movie is a closely guarded secret, as it will be an entirely new story that goes beyond the source material of the *Summer I Turned Pretty* books. Fan theories and industry speculation suggest a few possibilities:
- The Wedding Aftermath: The movie could focus on the aftermath of the Season 3 finale, exploring the long-term consequences of Belly’s final choice and how the Fisher brothers move on with their lives.
- The 'Cousins Beach' Milestone: Han mentioned there is "another big milestone left in Belly's journey." This could involve a significant future event, such as a wedding, a major family reunion, or a life-changing event that brings the core group back to Cousins Beach one last time.
- Focus on Secondary Characters: A feature film could allow for a deeper dive into the lives of Steven Conklin, Taylor, or even the new relationship dynamics of Laurel Park, a common request from the fanbase.
The main cast, including Lola Tung, Christopher Briney, and Gavin Casalegno, are all expected to return for the feature film to reprise their roles as Belly, Conrad, and Jeremiah, ensuring the core of the story remains intact.
