Heartstopper has found its Michael Holden and Darragh Hand will be portraying the character in Season 3 of the Netflix series.
Creator Alice Oseman shares on social media that the character of Michael is one of the main characters of her first novel titled Solitaire.
“So I was very nervous and excited to begin the search for our Michael,” Oseman shared on Instagram.
The author of the Heartstopper graphic novels describes Michael as a “quirky, eccentric optimist with a sunshine disposition.” Oseman says it was challenging casting Michael and finding an actor that channeled the vision she had for the character in the books.
