Relationships are a lot more complicated when it’s your own heart on the line…

That’s what Katherine “Kitty” Song Covey will learn in Netflix’s To All The Boys spin-off XO, Kitty. The new series will find our favorite teen matchmaker heading to South Korea to reunite with her long-distance boyfriend — only to discover she doesn’t know as much about love as she thought.

Netflix has announced the cast that will accompany Anna Cathcart in XO, Kitty as she reprises her role as the titular character in the 10-episode series. She’ll be joined by series regulars Choi Min-yeong (Dream Palace) as Dae, Anthony Keyvan (Genera+ion) as Q, Gia Kim as Yuri, Sang Heon Lee as Min Ho, Peter Thurnwald (Players) as Alex, and Regan Aliyah (Club Mickey Mouse) as Juliana. Recurring cast members include Yunjin Kim (Lost) as Jina, Michael K. Lee as Professor Lee, and Jocelyn Shelfo (The Summer I Turned Pretty) as Madison. Netflix has also shared that production has already begun in Seoul, South Korea.

I spoke with Cathcart during a junket for Netflix’s To All The Boys: Always and Forever about the potential for a Kitty spin-off before it was announced and she was all in. “It could happen, it could happen, I’m down,” she told me, when asked about continuing Kitty’s story. “It’s so fun to think about where Kitty might be. She’d be going to high school soon. I definitely see her as the head of all clubs and gets very involved and definitely makes her mark on the school so I think that would be so fun. Her sisters would both be away at college so she’ll kind of be the head of the house which she would probably argue that she always was.” We totally manifested it!

To All The Boys author Jenny Han serve as a co-showrunner and executive producer for XO, Kitty, alongside Sascha Rothchild. She’ll also be co-showrunner for the Prime Video adaptation of her book-turned-TV series The Summer I Turned Pretty.

While we wait for a release date for XO, Kitty, stream the To All The Boys movie trilogy on Netflix.
