"I just wrote it," Han announced this week in an update during The Wrap's 2025 Power Women Summit, with the 45-year-old reportedly set to be directing as well as writing the film sequel.
"We have not filmed anything yet," she added. "I know that everyone was hoping that it was coming out this Christmas, but unfortunately, not happening, not possible.
"The show came out in July," she continued. "It was really up to the last minute on the show, so we wouldn’t have had time to film the whole movie."
'The Summer I Turned Pretty' film cast
Lola Tung will of course return to the helm as our leading lady Belly Conklin, with Christopher Briney and Gavin Casalegno reprising their roles as Conrad and Jeremiah Fisher. Not to mention Sean Kaufman and Rain Spencer, who will return as Steven Conklin and Taylor Jewel.
'The Summer I Turned Pretty' film plot
The plot for The Summer I Turned Pretty film sequel has not been confirmed, but Han has made some hints about what we can expect.
"There is another big milestone for Belly," she teased to Today in September. "So we’ll continue along with that journey."
This, viewers believe, could indicate that the film adaptation will follow Belly and Conrad's wedding, with season three seeing her cancelled nuptials to his brother Jeremiah.
"The show ends as they’re just finding their way back to each other," Han reflected in a previous interview with ELLE UK. "So the movie will offer a look more at the two of them together."

'The Summer I Turned Pretty' film release date
There is no set release date for The Summer I Turned Pretty movie sequel yet, but Han has shut down rumours that it could air in the next year.
"I don’t know when it will be out, but I don’t think it’s safe to say next year because we haven’t filmed it yet," Han has previously explained to Variety. "I honestly, really want that extra time, because it’s just getting the actors a little bit closer to adulthood. We’re getting to see Belly at 15, turning 16, and then seeing her as this young woman. And now Lola is 22! I think that I always wanted some distance for the movie, so I’m really glad to get that breathing space."
"Sarah Kucserka, who is my co-showrunner, and I have finished a draft, so we’re trudging along," she has added via TODAY. "We don’t know when it’s coming out, but [it won’t be] next year."
