Filmed In Secret, The Kissing Booth 3 Is Coming In 2021
Netflix filmed the sequel in tandem with the second movie, but no one knew about it until now.
One of Netflix's popular original movie franchises, The Kissing Booth, recently returned with a sequel that debuted on July 24. That won't be the last entry in the series, however, as it's been confirmed that a third Kissing Booth movie was filmed in secret alongside the sequel.
Deadline reports that The Kissing Booth 3 was secretly filmed concurrently with Kissing Booth 2 in South Africa. Filming is finished, and all that's left is post-production. The Kissing Booth 3 is expected to come to Netflix sometime in 2021, and bring back the stars of the original movies, Joey King, Jacob Elordi, and Joel Courtney. Additionally, director Vince Marcello, who directed the first two movies, came back.
THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYBODY! I’m totally over the moon that we’re doing a third one (and yes, with all the same cast!)

It’s been tough keeping this secret from you all but thank you for all the lovely messages about #TheKissingBooth3! Your support is everything to me 💋💋💋
The entire Kissing Booth series is based on the novels by Beth Reekles, the first of which she wrote when she was just 15 years old. Reekles said on Twitter, "It's been tough keeping this secret from you all but thank you for all the lovely messages."
With July winding down, you might be wondering what's headed to Netflix in August. A lot of good stuff is coming, in the US at least, including the original Jurassic Park trilogy (August 1), the beloved animated show The Legend of Korra (August 14), and the James Bond movies Quantum of Solace and Casino Royale (August 31).
