Sex Education Creator Drops a Potentially Concerning Ending Update
What should we expect in the finale?
Fans of the popular Netflix series Sex Education are eagerly awaiting the release of its fourth and final season. However, recent comments from the show's creator, Laurie Nunn, suggest that the ending might not tie up all the loose ends in the way viewers might expect.
In a recent interview with The Guardian, Nunn discussed the show's conclusion, cautioning fans that it won't be "wrapped up completely perfectly."
The final season, which is arriving in a couple of days, will see the students of Moordale Secondary transitioning to Cavendish Sixth Form College.
The season will also delve into Otis' struggles with the distance between him and Maeve, who is now studying at the prestigious Wallace University. Will Otis and Maeve finally end up together?
Fans are also speculating about Viv and Jackson. Here’s what Chinenye Ezeudu, who plays Viv, told Variety:
“I always think that Jackson and Viv are endgame. I’m pushing for them to get together. Because they just suit each other!”
The final season also promises to be darker, with characters like Otis's mother, Jean, facing significant challenges and embarking on personal journeys of self-discovery.
Nunn expressed her hopes that the finale would satisfy fans, but also hinted that it might leave some questions unanswered. She also emphasized the importance of not letting potential fan reactions dictate the direction of the show.
Nunn mentioned that she's stepped away from social media, especially after the birth of her son, to avoid being overly influenced by fan reactions. She also shared her aspirations for the show's legacy, hoping that the characters she's created will be remembered fondly.
While Nunn has hinted at taking a break post the final season, she hasn't ruled out the possibility of revisiting the world of Moordale.
In a chat with Netflix's Tudum, she mentioned that the universe of Sex Education is rich and there's always more to explore. This has fueled fan theories about potential spinoffs in the future.
Anyway, as we speculate about potential spinoffs and what else this universe can offer its fans, we have a final season arriving soon. So, mark your calendars because season 4 is set to premiere on September 21, 2023.
