Prime Video series ‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’ is set to return for a third season.
The series, which premiered its second season on July 14, has solidified its position as one of the top 10 most-watched seasons across all series on the Amazon streaming service.
“We’ve been delighted to see the passion with which fans have embraced ‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’, making Summer Fridays an entertainment phenomenon,” a PTI report quoted Vernon Sanders, head of television, Amazon and MGM Studios, as saying.
“This charming, deeply heartfelt series has shown the breadth of our customer base, appealing to a young, diverse set of viewers. Jenny Han is a gifted storyteller, whose fans have been clamouring for the third chapter of this story. We’re excited today to share the news that they have a lot more Summer to look forward to,” he added.
According to the PTI report, season three was officially greenlit ahead of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
“Production on Season Three will not begin until after labour negotiations with those unions have been resolved,” it said.
