Okay, Heartstopper fans, are you ready for some good news? At this point, you probably know Kit Connor, who plays Nick Nelson in the Netflix series, has made huge moves this year. The actor is starring in the new “Romeo + Juliet” play on Broadway and he’s returning for Hearstopper Season 3.
But guess what? He will also star in “The Wild Robot,” an upcoming animated film by DreamWorks animation as “Brightbill”. To promote the film, he attended the 2024 San Diego Comic-Con along with the director, Chris Sanders, and the protagonist, Lupita Nyong’o.

Kit Connor also dazzled with some pictures taken by LA-based photographer Carianne Older for the event. In the three snaps, the actor poses cheekily, one pic shows him with black glasses, another one shows him biting a yellow telephone and the last one is just him and his smile.
Mark your calendars, “The Wild Robot” will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in September. Then, it will be released in movie theaters across the United States on September 27th, 2024.
