The first season of Netflix's adaptation 'Forever' concludes with a poignant moment between Keisha and Justin as they reflect on their relationship before she leaves for college. Netflix has renewed the series for a second season, which promises to delve deeper into the protagonists' lives. Creator Mara Brock Akil emphasizes that the show is about more than first love; it's about the real complexities of teenage life. As Keisha and Justin navigate their futures, viewers can look forward to their growth away from each other in their upcoming journeys.
Even though Justin tells her "maybe they'll be ready for each other in ten years" with a bittersweet forehead kiss, audiences won't have to wait that long for more.
Creator Mara Brock Akil stated, "This show was never just about first love - it was about being seen, about letting teenagers be soft, complicated, and real."
Mara Brock Akil is already contemplating the next chapter of their lives, asking, "Who are they going to be on the other side, or during that first semester?"
The adaptation of Judy Blume's novel diverges significantly from the original, reflecting a modern interpretation set in 2018 Los Angeles instead of 1975 New Jersey.
