I didn’t expect to get into a soapy college romance this summer, but here we are—and I’m not alone. Off Campus, based on the Elle Kennedy book series of the same name, has quickly become a huge hit. The Prime Video show is now the third most-watched debut series ever on the platform, with 36 million viewers in its first two weeks.
It’s easy to see why. Like the best teen dramas from the past, it takes place in a comforting, colorful world of jocks and college parties, red cups and romances, diners and karaoke bars. Nothing truly dark ever happens—it’s only hinted at. And no matter what problems the characters face, you can be sure they’ll figure things out in the end.
Amazon already knew it would be a big deal. Off Campus was renewed for a second season back in February, months before the first season even aired. But what can we expect from the second steamy ice hockey drama in the last year? Here’s what we know about Season 2.
What will Off Campus Season 2 be about?
The first season focused on the growing romance between ice hockey star Garrett Graham (Belmont Cameli) and bookish music student Hannah Wells (Ella Bright). But like each book in the series, each season will likely focus on a different love story. That means Garrett and Hannah won’t be the main couple in Season 2.
In an Instagram teaser, Amazon confirmed that Season 2 will mainly follow Hannah’s best friend Allie (Mika Abdalla) and Garrett’s hockey buddy Dean (Stephen Kalyn). In Season 1, they had a “friends with benefits” situation that started to feel serious. “We are so excited to continue Allie and Dean’s story as our primary romance of season two,” said Off Campus writer Louisa Levy in a statement. “But if you fell in love with Hannah and Garrett, don’t worry—they will still be an important part of our strong group of characters. We’re looking forward to telling the next chapter of everyone’s story. There’s a lot for fans to look forward to!”
Who’s in the cast for Off Campus Season 2?
The streamer has confirmed that many of the Season 1 cast will return for the next season: Bright as Hannah, Cameli as Garrett, Abdalla as Allie, Kalyn as Dean, Antonio Cipriano as John Logan, and Jalen Thomas Brooks as John Tucker.
But there will also be some new faces. On April 30, India Fowler (White Lines, Insomnia) was announced as the character Grace Ivers for Season 2. Sharp-eyed fans may have noticed she made a small cameo in the first season at the Hawks’ fundraiser at Malone’s. And, spoiler alert: Ivers is Logan’s love interest in the books. Phillipa Soo (Hamilton) will also join as Scarlett, a theater artist who guest-directs an original play for Briar University’s drama department.
One character who won’t be returning is Justin, played by Josh Heuston. “I love Josh, and I wouldn’t write him off if I can find a way to bring Justin back at some point,” Levy told TV Guide. “We never got to meet Stella, who is the person he ends up with in the book. So maybe we’ll find a way to include him in a future season. We don’t have him available next season, but never say never.”
What’s the release date for Off Campus Season 2?
Off Campus Season 2 will likely come out sooner than is typical for hit shows. Though Prime hasn’t announced an official release date yet, the season reportedly started filming on June 1. Since filming also began in June last year and wrapped up in October before the show’s May release, we’d expect Season 2 to come out in May 2027, if not earlier. Here’s hoping!
