Official sourceGavin Casalegno has given fans a new reason to follow the next chapter of The Summer I Turned Pretty. Speaking with PEOPLE in late July, the actor said viewers will be surprised by the planned film continuation of the Prime Video story. Casalegno, who plays Jeremiah Fisher, did not reveal plot details, but his comments add fresh momentum to a project that has drawn sustained attention from the show's global fan community.


The news is especially notable because the television series has already created a major conversation around its ending and its central characters. A film offers a different format from another season: it can return to the world with a more self-contained story and gives the cast an opportunity to revisit characters who have developed alongside the audience. Casalegno's teaser is deliberately limited, which is appropriate for a project still protecting its surprises.


In the same interview, Casalegno discussed his new shark thriller The Devil's Mouth, showing that the actor's current work is extending beyond the romantic coming-of-age drama that made Jeremiah widely recognizable. The contrast is meaningful for his career. One project keeps him linked to a much-loved ensemble and established fan base; the other gives him an opportunity to work in a different genre and reach viewers who may not know him from the Prime Video series.


Fans should avoid reading the tease as a production timetable. Public reporting has made clear that detailed filming information, including a finished script or start date, was not confirmed in the interview. The most reliable takeaway is simply that the continuation is moving through its early public-facing phase and that Casalegno is enthusiastic about the audience response when the project is ready.


For now, the update does what strong franchise news should do: it signals a return without spoiling the story. Casalegno's full comments are available in PEOPLE's interview. Official announcements from Prime Video and the production team remain the best sources for casting, production and release-date news.
