Prime Video is doubling down on its upcoming college drama Off Campus, announcing a Season Two renewal months before the series is set to premiere in May 2026.
The early renewal signals strong confidence from the streaming platform in the adaptation of the internationally bestselling book series by author Elle Kennedy. Season One of Off Campus will debut on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide in May 2026, with teaser art for the series released alongside the renewal announcement.
Described as a college-set soap, Off Campus centres on an elite ice hockey team at Briar University and the women in their lives. The series explores themes of romance, heartbreak and self-discovery as its characters navigate the transition into adulthood, forming close friendships and enduring bonds along the way.
The first season focuses on an “opposites attract” storyline between Hannah, a quiet songwriter, and Garrett, Briar University’s star hockey player.
“Off Campus captures the kind of emotionally charged, character-driven storytelling that truly resonates with our global Prime Video audience,” said Peter Friedlander, Head of Global Television, Amazon MGM Studios. “With its passionate fan base, rich source material, and an incredible creative team bringing Briar U to life, we knew that this series had the depth and momentum to continue beyond its first season. Set against the high-intensity world of college hockey, the series explores deeply personal journeys and is brought to life by a tremendously talented cast whose chemistry and authenticity make every moment feel real. We have great confidence in the way Louisa has mastered this adaptation and we’re excited to give fans even more of the romance, friendship, and heart that define the series.”
The series is produced by Amazon MGM Studios and is positioned as part of Prime Video’s broader strategy to leverage established intellectual property with built-in audiences. Kennedy’s Off Campus novels have achieved significant global commercial success, with more than 10 million copies sold worldwide and translations in over 25 languages. The author is a New York Times, USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling writer of more than 50 contemporary fiction and romance titles.
The adaptation is led by creator Louisa Levy, who co-showruns and executive produces the series alongside Gina Fattore. Additional executive producers include Wyck Godfrey, Marty Bowen and James Seidman for Temple Hill, as well as Leanna Billings of Billings Productions and Neal Flaherty.
The ensemble cast features Ella Bright (The Crown, Malory Towers), Belmont Cameli (Until Dawn, Saved by the Bell), Mika Abdalla (Snack Shack, Sex Appeal), Antonio Cipriano (Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, National Treasure: Edge of History), Jalen Thomas Brooks (The Pitt, Thanksgiving), Josh Heuston (Dune: Prophecy, Heartbreak High) and Stephen Kalyn (Gen V, Motorheads).
The early renewal reflects a growing industry trend in which streaming platforms seek to build multi-season franchises around established book properties to drive subscriber engagement and retention. By committing to a second season ahead of launch, Prime Video appears to be positioning Off Campus as a long-term addition to its global content slate.

With its combination of established source material, international distribution and a multi-season commitment, Off Campus is shaping up as a key youth-skewing drama for Prime Video’s 2026 slate — one that blends the high-stakes intensity of college athletics with character-driven romance aimed at a global audience.
