Season 4 of Sex Education may not be coming until early 2023, but the wheels are still turning behind the scenes.
What’s On Netflix reports that two new roles are being cast for the next run. Abbi and Kent are being referred to a “trans power couple”and the streaming giant is seeking a pair of trans actors (ages 18-23) to play them.
Abbi is described as follows:
A young trans woman with a 90s Winona Ryder vibe, who is confident and self-assured in her gender identity. Abbi is the leader of her group and the queen bee of her college – every girl either wants to be like her, or be friends with her. She’s sunny, magnetic, generous and loyal. When Abbi came out as a trans woman, she was kicked out of the house by her conservative parents. She currently lives with her boyfriend, Kent, whose family are much more accepting. Abbi used to be religious, but had to move away from her faith when it started to damage her sense of self. She still considers herself ‘spiritual, and attends a secular and inclusive congregation which celebrates community and chosen family.

Kent, meanwhile, is described as so:
Trans-masculine, goofy, forgetful, and a great listener. He is Abbi’s boyfriend, and they’re the ultimate power couple – they’ve been together for a while and are the epitome of ‘couple goals’, everyone loves them. Kent isn’t as sure about being one of the popular kids as Abbi, but he knows himself and feels quietly confident about his final year at college.
Sounds exciting, and you can be sure that there’ll be more Sex Education season 4 updates as things begin to come together behind the scenes.
