Christopher Briney Is Excited to Return to The Summer I Turned Pretty: ‘A Long Time Coming’ (Exclusive)

Christopher Briney is ready to bring back his Cousins ​​Beach!

Fans My summer is beautiful can’t wait for Season 3 to arrive after Season 2 aired in 2023. When asked if he was excited to return to the hit Prime Video series at the New York premiere Mean girls on Monday, the 25-year-old actor — who plays Aaron Samuels in the new musical adaptation starring Reneé Rapp — told PEOPLE, “Yeah, for sure.”

“We were supposed to do it last year, so it’s been a while,” he added, apparently referring to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, which delayed the return to production.

Briney remained tight-lipped about what fans can expect from the show’s upcoming season, saying he has “no idea” about any potential plot twists.

The third season — which was announced in August — will likely follow author Jenny Han’s third and final novel in the series, titled We will always have summer. The action of the book takes place two years after the events of It’s not summer without you while Belly (Lola Tung) wonders again if her heart is with Conrad (Briney) or his brother Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno). Only in the third book does she finally make a decision.

In June, the cast told PEOPLE that the third season will likely stick to the third book as much as possible, despite the second season diverging from the books in various ways.

“I know Jenny is really strong about staying true to the books and hitting the main points,” Casalegno told PEOPLE.

“There are so many different ways you can do it,” Tung added. “There’s a book outline, which we’ve been lucky to have for two seasons now, such a solid outline for us, and having Jenny set with us has been amazing.”

After the Season 2 finale in August, Han didn’t know how everything would play out for Belly and the Fisher brothers — including how it would differ from the book’s ending. However, she told PEOPLE that she initially “went into the show with an open mind” about how she could “explore new stories” while still paying homage to fans of the books.

“For me, the fun of the show is watching it and being able to experience it the way the story is meant to be told, where you’re not sure of the ending,” she explained. “It’s kind of the pain and pleasure of storytelling when I go to the movies, I don’t want to know the ending. I really want to be surprised and I want to be on that journey, even though it gives me anxiety watching it.”

She continued, “So I know it can drive the fans crazy, but I really always try to preserve their experience and have the best possible experience as an audience.”
