Filming for Heartstopper: Forever spanned a concise but productive 34 days, running from June into late July 2025. The entire shoot took place in the United Kingdom, under the production codename SUNBEAM. Though initially planned for an earlier wrap, filming extended slightly to ensure quality results.
Cast members such as Kit Connor and Joe Locke confirmed the filming completion on their social media, sharing heartfelt posts celebrating the achievement. Netflix also delighted the cast with special wrap gifts — custom Vans shoes adorned with the movie’s logo, offering an exclusive glimpse into the excitement behind the scenes.

Netflix’s official synopsis highlights their journey with quotes like, “As Nick and Charlie step into the next chapter of their lives, they face the trials of growing up and staying connected despite change.”
