‘XO, Kitty’ Season 2: Anna Cathcart’s Sent the Sweetest Text to Noah Centineo About Their Reunion
The Netflix original series, XO, Kitty is back with an all-new season and a reunion for actors Anna Cathcart and Noah Centineo. Their To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before characters, Kitty Song Covey and Peter Kavinsky, reunite in XO, Kitty Season 2. Upon hearing the news they’d be working together again, Cathcart sent Centineo a “very, very excited” text.
Kitty Song Covey and Peter Kavinsky cross paths in ‘XO, Kitty’ Season 2
The XO, Kitty Season 2 trailer revealed Kitty gets a surprise visit from Peter Kavinsky (Centineo), her older sister Lara Jean Song Covey’s (Lana Condor) love interest in the To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before trilogy.
She’s at school in Seoul, South Korea, when she sees Peter, wearing a Stanford sweatshirt (remember Lara Jean and Peter ended up going to different colleges), on the Korean Independent School of Seoul (KISS) campus. At one point, Peter even gives Kitty, whom he previously won over with Korean yogurt drinks, a boost, saying: “You are Kitty Song freaking Covey. Don’t you forget it.”
Centineo and Cathcart first played Peter and Kitty in Netflix’s 2018 adaptation of author Jenny Han’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before novel followed by To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You in 2020, and To All the Boys: Always and Forever in 2021. Cathcart began starring in XO, Kitty, a spin-off of the trilogy, in 2023.

Speaking to Swooon, Cathcart revealed how she reacted to having a mini To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before reunion with Centineo in XO, Kitty Season 2. “I was truly so, so excited when I found out that Noah was coming,” the 21-year-old said. “I texted him very, very excited being like, ‘I can’t believe this is actually happening.’”
Schedules aligned for the two actors. While Cathcart filmed new episodes of XO, Kitty in Seoul, Centineo was there shooting The Recruit Season 2, which hits Netflix on Jan. 30, 2025.
“He was in Seoul when we were shooting, and it was so, so special to be back in a space where not only did I get to see Noah again and hang out with him,” Cathcart continued, “but get to be Kitty and Peter and have that dynamic re-established and re-sparked, I think it is so special.”
“They know each other so well in such a specific way, and I love being able to come back to this world and get to re-explore that,” she explained. “Like their really specific older brother protective relationship.”
“Just to have his support as well and his encouragement from him about this show and about where I’m at in my career,” Cathcart added. “I’m truly so, so grateful for him.”
‘XO, Kitty’ Season 2 premieres on Jan. 16, 2025
It won’t be long before fans of the To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before trilogy get to see Kitty and Peter’s reunion. XO, Kitty Season 2 comes out on Jan. 16, 2025. Call it a belated Christmas gift or just a great way to start the new year.
The new season picks up where Kitty left off after her stunning realization—no spoilers—as she heads back to school for another semester at KISS.
Until then, fans can catch up on all the drama by watching XO, Kitty Season 1 on Netflix.
