\n\tJennifer Lawrence<\/a> is giving her take on the Team Conrad v. Team Jeremiah debate from The Summer I Turned Pretty<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\n\tDespite the Prime Video series constantly leaving viewers\u2019 to guess whether Conrad (Christopher Briney<\/a>) or Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno<\/a>) would prevail and end up with Lola Tung<\/a>\u2019s Belly Conklin, in the finale (spoiler!) Belly does end up with Conrad. A\u00a0Conrad endgame\u00a0<\/a>in the finale abided by the books\u2019 ending, but throughout the show\u2019s three seasons, viewers had also followed the ups and downs of Belly\u2019s relationship with Jeremiah \u2014 from watching their surprising love confessions to a four-year-long relationship, engagement, almost wedding and break up.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI have been ordered by all of my friends to not reveal this, but I am team Jeremiah. I am,\u201d Lawrence has now revealed in an interview.<\/p>\n

\n\tShe explained her reasoning for favoring Jeremiah: \u201cI think that Conrad is toxic. He kind of liked [Belly] but then didn\u2019t. He left her hanging. For him to confess his love for her the night before her wedding is sick. I am team Jeremiah. Rake me over the coals.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tCasalegno reacted to Lawrence\u2019s endorsement of his character, reposting her comments on his Instagram Stories with the caption, \u201cI knew there was a reason I\u2019ve always been Team JLaw.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tLawrence\u2019s comments quickly went viral, given Team Jeremiah has become a controversial choice on social media with many fans pointing out flaws in the character \u2014 from arguing that he cheated on Belly after sleeping with another college student while the two were broken up or just on a break (though that has been up for debate) to accusing the character of only pursuing Belly to be competitive over his older brother. Meanwhile, Jeremiah fans have in turn pinpointed reasons as to why Conrad wasn\u2019t the right choice for Belly either, and Jeremiah and Belly\u2019s relationship should\u2019ve been the true endgame especially when much of the series chronicles their journey.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe back and forth of favored teams \u2014\u00a0which also prompted Prime Video to issue a warning and caution viewers<\/a> against bullying and hate speech ahead of season three premiere \u2014 has continued to heat up even after the finale.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen addressing the criticism his character has received this season, Casalegno recalled a conversation he had with someone who questioned his loyalty to his character. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cAt a jazz bar at like 2 a.m. they were like, \u2018So are you actually a Team Jeremiah?\u2019 And I was like, \u2018Yeah, of course.\u201d And they were like, even after all this other stuff?\u2019 And I was like, \u2018I\u2019m sorry. Are you perfect? Have you ever made a mistake?\u2019 And she\u2019s like, \u2018Yeah, I\u2019ve made mistakes.\u2019 And I was like, \u2018Are you still team you?\u2019 And she\u2019s like, \u2018Yes.\u2019 There you go! We all make mistakes. Some big, some small, but at the end of the day, we\u2019re all growing and learning and I think that\u2019s the most important thing that you learn from your mistakes. And Jeremiah really did. I think he\u2019s grown a lot in the series,\u201d he told THR. <\/a><\/p>\n

\n\tThe actor also said that he thinks \u201cthe nice guy is always overshadowed\u201d and \u201cpeople will say it\u2019s predictable and they want that danger, but I think ultimately you end up marrying your best friend. You don\u2019t end up marrying someone who you never know their feelings or anything like that.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen asked about telling a separate love story within a focus on an inevitable Conrad and Belly reunion, the actor said he didn\u2019t feel \u201coverwhelmed\u201d by it and focused on trying to portray someone who would be himself. \u201cI just wanted people to love him for him. Even after the series ended there are still people that are team Jeremiah,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter the season three finale released on\u00a0Prime Video<\/a>, the Amazon-owned streamer announced it has greenlit a feature-length installment that will serve as the actual series ender.\u00a0Jenny Han<\/a>, author of the novels on which the series is based, will write alongside Sarah Kucserka and direct the movie, which will wrap up Belly\u2019s (Tung) story.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThere is another big milestone left in Belly\u2019s journey, and I thought only a movie could give it its proper due,\u201d Han said in a statement. \u201cI\u2019m so grateful to Prime Video for continuing to support my vision for this story and for making it possible to share this final chapter with the fans.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tStory details for the movie are being kept quiet for now, and Han remains mum even when asked if she can confirm there is no more love triangle and that Conrad and Belly are and will be the endgame in the film. \u201cPeople will just have to wait and see,\u201d she told\u00a0THR<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jennifer Lawrence is giving her take on the Team Conrad v.
