Ben Hope (Sebastian Croft) was a key character in the first two seasons of Heartstopper, but in season 3, he’s gone, leaving some viewers to wonder where he went, and without even a redemption arc. A British coming-of-age romantic comedy-drama series that premiered on Netflix in April 2022, Heartstopper is based on the graphic novel series of the same name by Alice Oseman (who is also the show’s creator). Heartstopper follows a group of friends at Truham Grammar School as they explore relationships and the facts of growing up.
