“'The Kissing Booth 3' Cast and Characters: A Guide to the Final Chapter of Netflix's Teen Rom-Com Trilogy”
Lee Flynn is Elle’s best friend and the person responsible for most of the comic relief moments in the films. Once he finds out about Elle’s relationship with his brother Noah, Lee becomes infuriated for a while and then comes to terms with their happiness. In the same way that Elle is afraid of jeopardizing her friendship with Lee, Lee also doesn’t want his relationship with Rachel to be in the way of it. This even results in a couple of tough moments between them in The Kissing Booth 2. While Elle is still deciding if she will go to Berkeley or Harvard, Lee is pretty settled on maintaining their plan of fulfilling their rule to go to the same university. In The Kissing Booth 3, we will see Lee and Elle spending as much time as possible together before she decides on where she will go after the summer ends.
Joel Courteney plays Lee Flynn in The Kissing Booth trilogy, and like King, he also started his career at an early age. His first notable role was starring in the J.J. Abrams-directed sci-fi thriller Super 8 in 2011. The actor’s performance in the film led him to win the Best Performance by a Young Actor award in the 2012 Saturn Awards ceremony. After this, Joel had a couple of appearances in other thrillers and indie films including Stephen King’s Mercy and the leading role in the CW short-lived series, The Messengers.
Spoilers ahead!
Joel Courtney chats with ET’s Matt Cohen about the end of the ‘The Kissing Booth’ franchise, which jumps ahead six years to reveal where the beloved characters end up after college. Joel reacts to his character, Lee, winding up with his high school sweetheart Rachel, and weighs in on whether he thinks Elle (Joey King) and Noah (Jacob Elordi) really ride off into the sunset together. Plus, he shares a message to fans about the end of this era, and offers up his ideas for a potential sequel down the line. ‘The Kissing Booth 3’ is now streaming on Netflix.
