The television adaptation of Sally Rooney's Normal People concluded with Connell heading off to New York and Marianne deciding she should remain in Ireland.
What's happens to the couple is unknown. Sally Rooney has not penned a sequel.
Paul Mescal, who played Connell in the show, would like for there to be a follow-up, just not immediately.

"There's loads of parts to that question," Mescal told The Hollywood Reporter when asked if he like to be part of a second season of the show.
"The selfish actor part of my brain knows how challenging and how fun it is to play a character like Connell.
"There's also the part of me that goes like, 'OK, I'm really proud of that show, but I don't want to go in and do a second season too soon and fuck it up'. Because often that can be the case, where that perfect thing suddenly becomes less perfect.
"I would obviously love to play Connell again, but that decision has got to come from people who are way higher than me in terms of creative input.
"I think you've also got to let Connell and Marianne grow up a little bit, maybe five, 10 15 years. If you were to go and look at these characters again, you've got to let them enter a different phase of their lives."
