Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not watched “The Kissing Booth 3,” out now on Netflix.
For “Kissing Booth 3” star Joey King, it was imperative that the last installment end the effervescent Elle Evans’ story in a way that was “just right.” Luckily, as an executive producer on the Netflix rom-com, King got her say.
“Finding the right way to do the send-off and figuring out what was best for the final edit was probably the heaviest area that I was involved in,” King tells Variety of her EP duties. “That was very exciting for me, because I just want to make sure that for me, for all the filmmakers and for all the fans, that our send-off was just right. I really hope they feel that way.”
But, that doesn’t mean that the conclusion is predictable. In fact, the finals scenes of “Kissing Booth 3” play out...

Netflix’s “The Kissing Booth” franchise began with sexist and retrograde attitudes toward its high school-age lead characters, then evolved into a collection of romantic tropes and tricks that give the genre a bad name. Now we are left with the final insult: Three films in, this series still doesn’t get its leading lady. In the face of icky writing, limp directing, awful pacing, horrific green screen, and terrible jokes, star Joey King spent three film adaptations of Beth Reeckles’ YA novels injecting heart and humor into her Elle Evans. Still,
Where last summer’s “The Kissing Booth 2” improved upon the series’ ostensible comedic bent and allowed King to shine, the franchise’s conclusion doubles down on its worst elements.

Netflix knows what the people want and is ready to give it to us! Well, in due time. A mere two days after the premiere of The Kissing Booth 2 in July 2020, cast members Joey King, Joel Courtney, Maisie Richardson-Sellers, Taylor Zakhar Perez, and Meganne Young announced that a third film was not only coming, but had already been filmed! Nearly a year later, we finally have a release date: Aug. 11.
While the cast have been hush-hush on what exactly the film will focus on, we already have a good idea. A special first look at the film shows Elle (King), Noah (Jacob Elordi), Lee (Courtney), and Rachel (Young) at the Flynn house the summer after graduation. Elle is dodging calls from Harvard admission, which means she still hasn't decided where she wants to go for college and hasn't told anyone about having been accepted to both Harvard and Berkeley.

Netflix is putting a pin in two of its most popular movie franchises.
The streamer on Tuesday announced an expansive 2021 movie slate, which was coupled with the announcement that beloved franchises To All the Boys and The Kissing Booth would be releasing their final movies.
Both franchises have been huge for Netflix, delivering bumper viewership over the last few years, but three movies each seems like enough when you consider the romantic nature of the flicks.
To All the Boys: Always and Forever will star Lana Condor, Noah Centineo, Janel Parrish, Anna Cathcart, Ross Butler, Madeleine Arthur, Sarayu Blue, and John Corbett.
"As Lara Jean Covey prepares for the end of high school and the start of adulthood, a pair of life-changing trips leads her to reimagine what life with her family, friends, and Peter will look like after graduation," reads the official logline for the final chapter.

One of the best parts of The Kissing Booth and The Kissing Booth 2 is the friendship between Elle Evans (Joey King) and Lee Flynn (Joel Courtney). Their bond is the strongest in both films, but it comes at the expense of their other relationships, namely with Rachel (Meganne Young) and Noah (Jacob Elordi). If you recall, in the first movie, Elle asks Lee what he would do if she didn't like who he was in a relationship with, and he responds that he would have to break up with them. This turns out to be a big point of contention between Rachel and Lee in the sequel, along with how often Lee drops everything to spend time with Elle and forgets dates he planned with Rachel.
After Noah leaves for college at the end of the summer, Elle starts tagging along for anything and everything Rachel and Lee do together.

Netflix’s continued forays into the wide world of romantic comedies — wildly popular with film fans, often overlooked by the studio system — has seen plenty of ups and downs. The streaming giant won acclaim for series like “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” and one-offs like “Set It Up,” but its romcom picks are just as prone to flaming out as setting the world on fire. While Vince Marcello’s 2018 adaptation of Beth Reekles’ Ya novel “The Kissing Booth” scored big in terms of viewership, critical appraisals were not so kind; with a 17 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the film is one of Netflix’s worst-reviewed originals.

From its auspicious beginning as a novel written by then-15-year-old author Beth Reekles on the self-publish site Wattpad, to its wildly popular film debut on Netflix, “The Kissing Booth” has proven itself a hit. It spoke to its target audience without speaking down to them, telling the story of a young woman confronted with the challenge of choosing between a longterm relationship with her male best friend or a budding romance with his hotter older brother. Though its imaginatively named sequel “The Kissing Booth 2” hits similar beats, themes and emotional touchstones, it delivers a few refreshing details by giving the heroine more agency in her quest to find happiness — yet not quite enough to justify its interminable run time.

“The Kissing Booth 2,” the sequel to Netflix’s popular teen rom-com, will debut on the streaming service this summer. The follow-up — again starring Joey King, Joel Courtney and Jacob Elordi — drops on Netflix on July 24.
King shared the news Thursday night during a live event on YouTube, where she was joined by fellow cast members to share secrets about the upcoming movie.
“The Kissing Booth” became a breakout hit among teen audiences when it premiered in 2018. At the time, Netflix reported that it was one of its most-rewatched original films that year. Though Netflix rarely provides statistics in context, the company’s chief content officer Ted Sarandos said “The Kissing Booth” was “one of the most-watched movies in the country, and maybe in the world.”
The original film follows King’s character, a high schooler who runs into trouble when she starts to fall for her best friend’s older brother.
