The casting for heartstopper is truly incredible. Seeing so much diversity and representation makes me so happy, we've come such a long way in media portrayal. I hope it helps people find comfort in their identity cause it's definitely helped me with that and it really means a lot :'D
when i first read heartstopper it was truly a shock to me because it was the first time i saw such positive queer and especially trans representation. i am a trans teen and even though i am not like elle as i'm not a trans girl, seeing her character had such a positive impact on me. and there are no words to describe the feeling of pure joy and excitement when i learned that elle was going to be played by yaz, a trans girl !! getting positive representation is so important and i'm so glad and thankful that as a teen i get to have this kind of representation in medias, and that future generations will have access to it as well : )
@@Logan-dn6uv maybe from an outside perspective, but for the point of view of queer and non-cisgender people queer representation really needs to up its game which I love this so much. I really agree (with the original comment) with you because when I read it I was like... oh it's gonna be another toxic relationship, why can't we get proper rep? but I was proven wrong with all the amazing characters and now I'm in love with the books and comics. Also the fact that nick is bisexual rather than gay. I was watching shows like love, Victor as a bi person thinking it was bi rep, but it wasn't and I was pretty upset. so I'm glad Alice wrote nick the way she did. :) sorry for the rant hehe 💘💘
Exactly, representation is everything in society, and it should have always been but we've come a long way and made lots of progress over the years so i can say we got to a point where diversity is portrayed more thoroughly and consistently and i couldn't be happier about it, even as a cisgender person i'm truly content with seeing this rightful change
I can’t- can we talk about how FUCKING PRETTY YAS IS?? LIKE- also I think this is the first live action trans character I’ve seen, which honestly made me happier than it probably should’ve, but there’s something about realizing “holy crap, the first trans character that isn’t a drawing, that you can actually see and is real!”
you guys don't understand how excited i am for heartstopper, me and my boyfriend have been waiting quite awhile for this and we are such huge fans of the webtoon! we're both so happy it's finally coming to light.
will is rocking that outfit and he has such a wonderful smile!!! i love him to bits, i just know that tao is gonna be a fav character of mine in the show. he did so well in the trailer
Elle has always been a comfort character of mine and I was beyond ecstatic to hear that Yasmin will play her! Her and Will have so much chemistary, and I can't wait to see that in the show!
Will Gao as Tao is amazing. Reading Heartstopper he was the friend I always wished I had, and watching him come to life on the screen brought me to tears tonight. Ma man Tao is hilarious and such a boss. So much love for the character and his amazing actor, so much admiration for Will ❤️
i've been giggling and bouncing my legs the entirety of these interviews simply because of how amazing and authentic these actors are. they look and seem so similar to the characters they're portraying and i can't help but gush over them !!!!!!
I LITERALLY cried with the last part, I am no longer in High School but me like so much others have stories of being an "outsider" like they said. It's hard to fit in and be yourself at the same time in a society like the one we're living in, but we must find a way. Keep on going y'all!!!
Seeing the diversity of the casting makes me so incredibly happy. In so many shows-if there is a trans character-they are usually played by a cis person, it’s so refreshing and inspiring to see an actual trans women playing a trans character! I’m very excited to watch the show!!
seeing these interviews as a queer young adult is so emotional, i’m just extremely happy and excited for the following generations to have such diverse representation and role models 🥹 I will forever be grateful to persons of my own generation like Alice and many before us to have pave the way to finally start to see this on screen, on media, on the street, everywhere. We belong everywhere because we exist everywhere, we are everywhere ♥️
Watching Will actively listen to and support Yasmin as she talks about her experiences is really heartwarming. These kids - the whole cast - are such sweet souls.
several months ago I was on the train reading volume 4. i always feel all the emotions reading heartstopper and I’m pretty transparent. my neighbor who was in their late thirties was reading a book too. when we were arriving they asked me what I was reading, they seemed truly interested. I started explaining to them what it was, emphasizing on the diversity and representation of the books. I told them that I truly have these books very close to my heart and they looked at me in the eyes and said “that is so important, so much that sometimes it is all that matter, to feel seen”. I still remember that person and I hope they’re okay and that they feel seen too ♥️
I love the casting sm! Like, a lot of the time, they cast full adults for kids, but these are people who are actually in the age range or rly close to it. And the fact they were so specific with who they were looking for. They didn't just choose a cis person for a trans character, they actually got a trans girl, which I'm living for. And like they were looking for the exact ethnicity, love it sm. I hate when people cast actors that are completely different from the characters. So yeah, that's my tangent, can't wait for this Friday
I picked up heartstopper and binge reqd the entire series during a break up and the morning afterwards i found out about the Netflix adaptation. Im so excited this is my favourite series by far
im so in love with this cast, they're amazing, i really hope they can give the comfortable vibe heartstopper comics give me, im so excited for this! also, yaz is so so beautiful, she's so classy, i love her already
Yaz is an inspiration for me like really. As a transmasc of colour (that wants to be an actor) i’m just so honored to see her on cast and she gives me so much hope like wow. Thank you so much
Such a great cast, Yaz is so beautiful and I loved her anecdotes, all the actors they’ve shown in the cast are so lovely, I’m really looking forward to this show! I love the graphic novel so I am hoping the show will be just as good as well.
They are both so sweet, talented and beautiful, and the characters that they play are so interesting. It makes me so emotional to finally see proper representations in the film industry, the world is falling apart but things like this show give me so much hope for the future.
Thank you so much for how wonderful, true and real you are, inspiring me everyday, sending love and the hugs you are all so good at, very proud of all of you ❤🎉
Oh my god. I really love them, the way they speak, the way they share with us their experiences are really meaningful. Glad to have them back in two more seasons. Story's like this need to be shared to the world because we are making the difference and it will give us many opportunities to live our lives being ourselves and not being what other people's want us to be. I'm grateful for this shows arive to my life and thanks to Alice for make a beautiful masterpiece on Wich I can relate in every possible ways. Stream Heartstopper guys you will not regret believe me. This show is lives changer 💙💙💙🙏🙏🙏🎊🎉🎉
the section on bullying i felt in my core- for most of my highschool experience ive been placed into the out group, and in one of my highschools it contributed a lot to my general sadness and feeling like i was unwanted. but regardless of this i always found my 'group', as most of us outsiders do- its only natural! its just nice to have a show and story dedicated to just that; a group of outsiders. it means so much to me that the 'other' (for whatever reason that you may feel like an 'other') is the focus of heartstoppers cast dynamics!!

bruh you spelt kit's last name incorrectly but ok
i like how this comment has been replied to, pinned and edited, yet kits last name is still spelt incorrectly 😂
listening to yaz's voice is my new favorite hobby now
i know it’s so nice
same here omg! i rewatched her little bit of speech in the trailer over and over
First I didn't understand what you meant I was like "wtf" but now I do. And I feel the same :')
Me too !! Her voice is so calming that I could just hear it all day ~
She needs that audiobook reading career
Will’s disgust at Yaz’s school for making her play sports with the guys gave me hope in life. He looked like he was going to go fight administration.
such a tao thing to do as well lmao
he’s the epitome of tao
I love them, they're all so perfect that words can't even describe it 😭
Omg that part 🥹🫠
no srsly he was like..UMM GURLLL DO I NEED TO TALK TO SOMEBODY
The casting for heartstopper is truly incredible. Seeing so much diversity and representation makes me so happy, we've come such a long way in media portrayal. I hope it helps people find comfort in their identity cause it's definitely helped me with that and it really means a lot :'D
So true
Yes, rappresemtation LGBT❤
Is it just me, or is anyone else in love with Yaz's outift?
I love her outfit it’s so pretty 🤩
Or in love with yaz in general! I’m aroace but damn girl
Yes and Will’s outfit
it’s moschino
And it's in trans flag colors 💙🤍💖

Same!!
I’m also trans but trans male and I loved having trans people being included as it’s not a very common thing to see
I would there was a lot of talk avoit transexuality, you know a decent raporesentation..,
@@Logan-dn6uv maybe from an outside perspective, but for the point of view of queer and non-cisgender people queer representation really needs to up its game which I love this so much.

they're gonna be such a powerful couple in the show i just know it

I woul there waa a lot to talk transezuality..,
@@Logan-dn6uv that sentence gave me a stroke what?
Jules from euphoria
Watch Pose if you want some additional representation alongside learning more about important LGBTQ+ history & culture
Heartstopper is the most amazing thing in the world, you cannot convince me otherwise.
Nobody’s trying to convince you. We all agree 🍂
I agree
facts
I honestly CAN'T BELIEVE they're 18/19 years old. I was definitely not this well-spoken at that age. They're both such good speakers!
Yaz gushing over everyone in hstwt literally got me so emotional, like we genuinely love them all so much, I'm so glad they feel that 🥺
I like them all but Tao and Elle were the BEST casting choices.
you guys don't understand how excited i am for heartstopper, me and my boyfriend have been waiting quite awhile for this and we are such huge fans of the webtoon! we're both so happy it's finally coming to light.
will is rocking that outfit and he has such a wonderful smile!!! i love him to bits, i just know that tao is gonna be a fav character of mine in the show. he did so well in the trailer
The casting is so good omg! I’m so glad they have made it so diverse and used people who actually relate to the characters!
This! It made me so happy about itttt
Elle has always been a comfort character of mine and I was beyond ecstatic to hear that Yasmin will play her! Her and Will have so much chemistary, and I can't wait to see that in the show!
theyre the prettiest people ever actually gosh im sososo excited to see them in heartstopper ;-;

honestly the most beautifully casted show
i've been giggling and bouncing my legs the entirety of these interviews simply because of how amazing and authentic these actors are. they look and seem so similar to the characters they're portraying and i can't help but gush over them !!!!!!
yaz's voice is nothing short of mesmerizing!! and i'm so glad to see her being comfortable in her role as elle, one of my fav characters
I LITERALLY cried with the last part, I am no longer in High School but me like so much others have stories of being an "outsider" like they said. It's hard to fit in and be yourself at the same time in a society like the one we're living in, but we must find a way. Keep on going y'all!!!
I can't wait for this show to be out. The cast is freaking phenomenal...
yasmin's advice at the end!!! she's so amazing and inspiring and confident and everything i aspire to be :')
Seeing the diversity of the casting makes me so incredibly happy. In so many shows-if there is a trans character-they are usually played by a cis person, it’s so refreshing and inspiring to see an actual trans women playing a trans character! I’m very excited to watch the show!!
yasmin is so gorgeous and i love her braids. and william is exactly how i pictured Tao in my head same with yas too. i’m literally so excited for this
i actually followed yaz on social media before i became a hesrtstopper fan and i think she’s absolutely perfect for the role
