The official trailer for “XO, Kitty” Season 3 has landed, and it’s a whirlwind of emotions that promises to leave fans devastated. Set to premiere on Netflix in March 2026, this spin-off from the beloved “To All the Boys” franchise picks up with Kitty Song Covey, played by Anna Cathcart, embarking on a summer tour cruise that’s anything but smooth sailing. The tagline—”She came on this tour chasing one heart. She never saw the other breaking in silence”—hints at a tangled web of romance, regret, and unspoken pain, centered around Kitty’s pursuit of Min Ho while overlooking Yuri’s quiet turmoil.
Anna Cathcart returns as the optimistic, meddlesome Kitty, now navigating life post-high school with her signature blend of charm and chaos. After the emotional rollercoaster of Season 2, where relationships were tested and secrets unraveled, Season 3 thrusts Kitty into a group adventure on a luxurious cruise, possibly docking in scenic spots like Busan. She’s determined to finally move forward with Min Ho, portrayed by Sang Heon Lee, whose brooding charisma has fans swooning. Their slow-burn chemistry builds tension, with leaked episode details suggesting heated moments amid family obligations pulling Min Ho away.
But the real gut-punch comes from Gia Kim’s Yuri, whose realization of deeper feelings for Kitty adds layers of heartache. The “Ships in the Night” episode title evokes missed connections—two souls passing each other without aligning—mirroring Yuri and Juliana’s lingering ties, while Kitty remains oblivious. Chloe Veitch reprises Juliana, bringing vulnerability to their evolving dynamic. Other returning stars include Anthony Keyvan as Q, Peter Thurnwald as Florian, and Jocelyn Shelfo as Madison, rounding out a ensemble that explores themes of identity, friendship, and the messiness of young love.
Filming wrapped earlier in 2025, with post-production focusing on amplifying the series’ vibrant visuals and K-pop infused soundtrack. Creator Jenny Han, who adapted her universe from the Lara Jean novels, teases a season full of high-stakes drama: from cruise escapades turning into emotional shipwrecks to revelations that could redefine relationships. Kitty’s growth as a matchmaker evolves into self-reflection, forcing her to confront how her pursuits affect those around her. The trailer showcases stunning ocean views, late-night confessions, and tearful confrontations, setting the stage for betrayals that hit harder than ever.
For fans who’ve followed Kitty from Portland to Seoul, this installment feels like a poignant evolution—blending the rom-com fluff of earlier seasons with raw, adult struggles. As Kitty chases her happily ever after, the silence of unspoken heartbreak looms large, reminding viewers that love often sails by unnoticed. With potential cameos from the original cast adding nostalgia, Season 3 could be the most devastating yet. Will Kitty’s heart align with the right ship, or will missed opportunities sink everything? The wait until March is agonizing, but the emotional payoff promises to be worth every tear.
