THE KISSING BOOTH 2 Sets Summer Release Date for This July at Netflix
Netflix has released the date for its upcoming sequel The Kissing Booth 2. The movie is set to hit the streamer this summer, and will see the return of the original film’s stars, Joey King, Jacob Elordi, and Joel Courtney. The first film was based on the popular YA novel by Beth Reekles, who was just 15 when she wrote it.
The story follows 16-year old Elle Evans, played by King, who is known for her roles in Wish I Was Here, Fargo the series, as well as the limited series The Act, who has never been kissed, and has to confront her secret crush at a kissing booth.
Joey King hosted a live stream Thursday announcing the summer release date of The Kissing Booth 2, which has Vince Marcello returning to write and direct. Check out the synopsis below:
Elle Evans (Joey King) just had the most romantic summer of her life with her reformed bad-boy boyfriend Noah Flynn (Jacob Elordi). But now Noah is off to Harvard, and Elle heads back to high school for her senior year. She’ll have to juggle a long-distance relationship, getting into her dream college with her best friend Lee (Joel Courtney), and the complications brought on by a close friendship with a handsome, charismatic new classmate named Marco (Taylor Perez). When Noah grows close to a seemingly-perfect college girl (Maisie Richardson-Sellers), Elle will have to decide how much she trusts him and to whom her heart truly belongs. Director and screenwriter Vince Marcello returns for The Kissing Booth sequel, based on characters from Beth Reekles’ 2012 young adult book.
