Heartstopper’s Nick Nelson actor Kit Connor has revealed he suffered ‘nightmares’ ahead of filming a scene for season two of the hit Netflix show
Heartstopper star Kit Connor has opened up on filming a “nightmare” scene as season two of the Netflix show has been sending fans wild.
The latest instalment of the LBGTQ+ teen drama dropped on the streaming site on August 3, as it follows Joe Locke as the lovable protagonist Charlie Spring and Kit as the leading romantic interest, Nick Nelson. Heartstopper has received critical acclaim since its first season dropped last year to rave reviews and was even among the top ten most-watched English language shows on Netflix within 48 hours of its release.
Based on Alice Oseman’s bestselling graphic novel series of the same name, the latest series featured a school trip to Paris. Quickly becoming a fan-favourite moment, the characters explored the sights of the city and Nick even impressed with his French skills. The students of Truham and Higgs venture to Paris on a joint school trip and Nick is heard speaking French as he plans to meet up with his French businessman dad Stéphane.
Nick even places the group’s order at a Parisian ice cream stand, much to his friend’s surprise, and receives a compliment from the vendor on his accent. Despite impressing other characters, actor Kit was so nervous about talking French that he even had nightmares. He has admitted he doesn’t actually speak the language and had to take up lessons to master the accent.
