Netflix Releases New Trailer for Season 2 of Heartbreak High

The new trailer for season two of the Netflix series Heartbreak High has been released. The new season is set to premiere on April 11. 

The trailer shows the character Amerie Wadia (Ayesha Madon) back at Hartley High; however, she is at the center of online bullying. Her friends, Quinni Gallagher-Jones (Chole Hayden) and Darren Rivers (James Majoos), are trying to help her find the cyberbully. The viewer can also expect to see the other characters trying to navigate their own lives and personal conflicts.

Heartbreak High takes place in Australia as the teens learn to navigate sexuality, romance, friendships, and identity. Season one happens at Hartley High when an explicit map is discovered on the school’s wall.

The characters, Amerie, and her ex-best friend, Harper McLean (Asher Yasbincek), are believed to have made the map together. As a result, every student whose name appears on the map has to take a sexual education course. This course is referred to as the “Sexual Literacy Tutorial.”

The series receives praise from audiences for its representation. Many people are even drawing comparisons between Heart Break High and another Netflix original series, Sex Education. This series aired for four seasons before ending in 2023. Both dramas show their characters navigating through the challenges of growing up and finding one’s identity.
