Heartbreak High Season 3: Release date rumors, cast updates and what to expect next
By Aman Shukla Published on July 10, 2025, 20:30 IST Last updated July 10, 2025, 20:07 IST G'day, Heartbreak High fans! If you're as obsessed with the Hartley High crew as we are, you're probably itching to know what's next after that wild Season 2 finale. The Aussie teen drama has us hooked with its messy relationships, real talk on big issues, and a cast that feels like your mates. Netflix has confirmed Season 3 is coming, but it's the last hurrah for our faves. So, let's dive into the goss—release date rumours, cast updates, and what's brewing for the final season. Release Date Rumors for Heartbreak High Season 3 No official release date yet, but we've got some clues. Season 1 hit screens in September 2022, and Season 2 landed in April 2024—about 18 months apart. With filming done in February 2025, we're guessing Season 3 could drop around August or September 2025. Some fans on X are betting on early 2026, though, since post-production can take a bit. Either way, it's not too far off, so keep your Netflix sub ready! Cast Updates: Who's Returning for Heartbreak High Season 3? The core cast is expected to return to wrap up the students' journeys as they face their final year at Hartley High. Netflix's production wrap announcement confirmed 13 returning stars, including: Ayesha Madon as Amerie Wadia, the bold and outspoken lead navigating love and chaos. James Majoos as Darren Rivers, whose emotional depth and wit keep fans hooked. Chloé Hayden as Quinni Gallagher-Jones, bringing authentic neurodivergent representation. Asher Yasbincek as Harper McLean, Amerie's best friend with a complex backstory. Thomas Weatherall as Malakai Mitchell, whose arc left fans hanging after Season 2. Will McDonald as Ca$h Piggott, exploring asexuality and relationships. Bryn Chapman Parish as Spencer 'Spider' White. Gemma Chua-Tran as Sasha So. Sherry-Lee Watson as Missy Beckett. Brodie Townsend as Ant Vaughn. Chika Ikogwe as Jojo Obah, the supportive teacher. Kartanya Maynard as Zoe Clarke. Rachel House as Principal Stacy 'Woodsy' Woods. There's uncertainty around Josh Heuston as Dusty Reid, who had a reduced role in Season 2 due to scheduling conflicts with Dune: Prophecy . Fans are hopeful for at least a guest appearance. Malakai's return was also in question after his Season 2 move to Geneva, but Thomas Weatherall's inclusion in the wrap video confirms he'll be back, though his screen time is unclear. New characters might join to shake things up, as hinted by past seasons introducing fresh faces like Rowan and Zoe. What to Expect from Heartbreak High Season 3 Season 3 is set to be a banger, with the Hartley High crew facing their final year. Netflix teased a juicy plot: a revenge prank goes totally pear-shaped, and Amerie and her mates have to cover it up or risk losing everything. Sounds like classic Heartbreak High chaos! We're expecting some loose ends from Season 2 to get tied up. Amerie and Malakai's romance is a big one—after that burned love letter, will he finally spill his feelings? Ca$h and Darren's relationship is another hotspot, with Ca$h's asexuality and Darren's needs front and center. Quinni's journey as a neurodivergent school captain is bound to shine, and Harper's got her own demons to face. Carly Heaton, the show's executive producer, told Refinery29 that Season 3 will dig into consequences and class, exploring what it's like to leave high school and step into the unknown. The cast's input, like Chloé Hayden's work on Quinni's arc, keeps it real. Oh, and expect some iconic Aussie touches—think personalized jackets with Aboriginal flags or 'bin chicken' patches for that extra local flavor.

Aussie TV star's bold new play shakes up Perth stage
Ian Booth, Thomas Weatherall & Owen Hasluck. Picture: John Koh / The West Australian Black Swan's latest production, Blue, has opened at the State Theatre Centre to a standing ovation and glowing audience reactions. Written by Heartbreak High star Thomas Weatherall and directed by Ian Wilkes, Blue is a raw, emotionally charged coming-of-age story exploring grief, identity, and the weight of unspoken truths. It's brought to life by Owen Hasluck, a proud Whadjuk Noongar man making his main stage debut, in a one-man performance that audiences are calling 'extraordinary', 'phenomenal', and 'captivating'. With evocative lighting, sound, and a strikingly simple yet versatile set, Blue delivers a production that's as visually compelling as it is emotionally resonant. The season runs until this Sunday in the Studio Underground. Tickets are on sale now at

The production has won the 2024 Matilda Award for Best New Australian Work. Weatherall played the lead in the east coast version of the production, but Perth raised, NIDA and WAAPA graduate Owen Hasluck will perform the lead role. 'We're thrilled to welcome Owen to Black Swan,' Artistic Director Kate Champion said. 'Blue is a play full of heart, honest and hope… we know this WA premiere will be something truly special.'
