The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 trailer
  • The creator of The Summer I Turned Pretty, Jenny Han, deliberately misled fans about the series' ending to maintain surprise and prevent spoilers.
  • Videos circulated in October 2024 showing actor Gavin Casalegno, who plays Jeremiah, seemingly filming in Paris, leading fans to speculate about his character's romantic outcome with Belly.
  • Han later confirmed that these Paris scenes were staged, with Casalegno's participation, as a ruse to protect the story's conclusion for the audience.
  • The actual series finale, released recently, depicted Belly reconciling with Conrad in Paris, consistent with the third book, “We’ll Always Have Summer”.
  • Amazon Prime Video has announced a forthcoming movie to continue the narrative, with Han stating it is needed to properly address a significant remaining milestone in Belly's journey.
