Maxton Hall Season 2: Release date, cast updates and what to expect next
By Aman Shukla Published on July 15, 2025, 20:17 IST Last updated July 15, 2025, 20:16 IST Alright, Maxton Hall fans, let's talk about Season 2! If you're anything like us, you've been obsessing over Ruby and James since that gut-punch of a finale in Season 1. The German teen drama, based on Mona Kasten's Save Me trilogy, hooked millions of us with its swoony romance and high-stakes drama when it hit Prime Video in May 2024. It became the platform's biggest international original series practically overnight. So, what's the deal with Season 2? Let's dive into the release date, cast, and what we can expect from our favourite elite boarding school. Maxton Hall Season 2 Release Date Mark your calendars: Maxton Hall Season 2 lands on Prime Video on November 7, 2025. We know, it feels like forever, right? Filming kicked off in June 2024 and wrapped up by September, with the crew bouncing between Berlin, London, and a stunning castle near Hanover. Some fans on X were crossing their fingers for an earlier release, like spring or summer 2025, but Prime Video shut down those rumors with the official November date. They're promising a slick production, with top-notch dubbing and subtitles for fans worldwide. Cast Updates for Season 2 The core cast of Maxton Hall is set to return, bringing back the characters fans fell in love with. Here's who we expect to see: Harriet Herbig-Matten as Ruby Bell: The determined scholarship student navigating love and ambition. Damian Hardung as James Beaufort: The wealthy heir grappling with grief and his feelings for Ruby. Sonja Weißer as Lydia Beaufort: James' sister, dealing with her own dramatic storyline, including her pregnancy. Fedja van Huêt as Mortimer Beaufort: The imposing patriarch of the Beaufort family. Ben Felipe as Cyril Vega: A key figure in the Maxton Hall social scene. Justus Riesner as Alistair Ellington: A friend of James with his own arc. Runa Greiner as Ember: Part of Ruby's growing circle of friends. Andrea Guo as Lin Wang: Another friend adding depth to the group dynamics. While Clelia Sarto's character, Claudelia Beaufort, passed away in Season 1, there's a chance she could appear in flashbacks. New characters are also expected to join, introducing fresh dynamics, though specific details about newcomers remain under wraps. What to Expect in Maxton Hall Season 2 Season 2 picks up where that heartbreaking cliffhanger left off, diving into Save You , the second book in Mona Kasten's series. If you thought Season 1 was intense, brace yourself—things are about to get messy. Without giving away too much, here's what you can expect: Ruby and James' Rocky Romance : After their steamy night in Oxford, Ruby's on cloud nine, dreaming of her future. But James is spiraling after his mom's death, making choices that push Ruby away. Will he fight to win her back? Will Ruby even let him? Their chemistry is fire, but the heartbreak is real. : After their steamy night in Oxford, Ruby's on cloud nine, dreaming of her future.

Can she keep her dreams alive? : Ruby's got her sights set on Oxford, but those scandalous photos with Mr. Sutton from Season 1 are coming back to haunt her. Can she keep her dreams alive? Darker, Grittier Tone: Damian Hardung called Season 2 'grim and dark' in a recent chat, hinting at heavy themes like grief and trauma. It's not all doom and gloom, though—there'll be plenty of those heart-fluttering Ruby-and-James moments to balance it out. The teaser trailer dropped in July 2024, and it's a lot. Ruby's watching James dance with another girl at a party (ouch), and there's a scene of her running from school in tears. But don't lose hope—there are glimpses of them holding hands and getting cozy, so their love story's far from over. Ahmedabad Plane Crash Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .

‘Maxton Hall' Season 3 Is Coming! Release Date, Cast, Plot + More
It's an excellent month to be a Maxton Hall fan! Prime Video's hit teen drama series took the world by storm when it first released in March 2024. With the series racking up more than 95 million TikTok posts since its debut, fans remain feral for this German-language series adapted from Mona Kasten's Save Me book trilogy. The book-to-screen adaptation was also grouped in 'the big three' for modern coming-of-age stories, along with fellow Prime TV hit The Summer I Turned Pretty and Netflix's My Life With the Walter Boys. And right now, the fandom is celebrating big time because Prime Video announced Maxton Hall Season 3 is officially greenlit—five months before Season 2's release date! Keep reading to find out more about Maxton Hall Season 3, plot details, potential release dates, behind-the-scenes updates and more. The first book in the international bestselling Maxton Hall series, Save Me, follows the smart, straightlaced Ruby Bell. After Ruby was awarded a scholarship to one of England's most prestigious and expensive private schools, Maxton Hall, she spends her days studying, planning her future at Oxford University and keeping her distance from other students—especially the rich, handsome and arrogant James Beaufort. When Ruby stumbles upon a scandal involving the Beauforts, James confronts her. As the two are forced to work together to plan the school's upcoming gala, they clash in every possible way. But as they spend time together, Ruby finds herself drawn to James. As they both desperately fight their feelings, other dramas arise that may alter their worlds and futures. The second book in the series, Save You, will be adapted into Season 2, and Save Us, the last book in the trilogy, will be adapted into Season 3. The first two books were re-released in English in 2025. All three books follow the turbulent evolution of James and Ruby's love story. The news about Maxton Hall's renewal for Season 3 (five months ahead of Season 2's premiere date) was delivered to fans on Instagram by the series' stars Harriet Herbig-Matten, who plays Ruby, and Damian Hardung, who plays James. 'Damien, you won't believe what just arrived—Maxton Hall is coming back for Season 3,' Herbig-Matten said to Hardung in the video. 'It's here,' Hardung responded, showing a Season 3 script to the camera while smiling. 'One last time back to school!' See the full announcement video below. Fans can expect Season 2 and Season 3 to star Herbig-Matten and Hardung, along with many of the other fan-favorite cast members. Fans were waiting with bated breath about this Season 3 announcement, but months ago, Christoph Scheider, Country Director at Prime Video Germany and Austria hinted at the possibility. 'We had a great IP (intellectual property), it was brilliantly made, we had a great cast—and not just the two main actors, who are outstanding, but also the others,' he told Deadline. 'Everyone was really great, and that made this a unicorn show. The good news is we have three seasons.' Scheider went on to reveal that the show's producers had to work around Maxton Hall super fans, who found out where filming was taking place and flocked the set. 'It was shot in a castle near Hanover, which is not a secret anymore,' he continued. 'It was really challenging to shoot Season 2 because so many fans were there every day trying to take photographs, but the plot was top secret, so it was really a challenge for the team.' Maxton Hall Season 2 is set to premiere on Prime Video on November 7, 2025. An Amazon spokesperson offered a behind-the-scenes update to Deadline about the upcoming seasons a few months ago: 'We want to offer fans around the globe the best Maxton Hall experience. We're intensely working on a first-class production and music composition for the series, including comprehensive language versions. We promise the wait will be worth it.' Buzz continues to build for the teen drama ahead of Season 2's premiere and a teaser trailer just dropped, revealing quite a few eye-opening tidbits for fans. In the teaser, we see James and Ruby being torn apart again, wild parties, simmering drama and, yes, more angst and tension than ever before. See the full teaser trailer below. As of right now, there is no official release date for Season 3. The good news? Well, since Season 3 was greenlit way ahead of Season 2's premiere, it's likely we'll see Season 3 sometime in very late 2025 or early 2026. (Basically, it will be a shorter wait for a new season this time around!) Stay tuned for more details! The first season of Maxton Hall is available to stream right now on Amazon Prime Video.

‘Mozart Mozart': New Series Puts Composer's Forgotten Sister Center Stage (Exclusive Trailer)
Bavaria Media and Beta Film have joined forces on Mozart Mozart, a six-hour drama that reimagines the legacy of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart through the eyes of his (real-life) sister, Maria Anna Mozart. The series, from the creators of German costume drama hit Sisi, has received a first-season commission from German public broadcaster ARD and Austria's ORF. More from The Hollywood Reporter Zurich Film Festival Embarks on New Era With Director-Led Buyout A Young Iranian Singer Makes Her Voice Heard in 'Bidad' (Exclusive Karlovy Vary Trailer) Foo Fighters Are Back With First Song Since 2023 to Celebrate 30th Anniversary Set in the late 18th century, the series centers on Amadeus' sister, Maria Anna Mozart, portrayed by Havana Joy (Love Sucks), who steps into her brother's shoes after his dismissal from the Salzburg court threatens the family's future. When Wolfgang, played by Eren M. Güvercin (Druck, Eldorado), proves too volatile to secure favor at the court of Emperor Joseph II, Maria Anna disguises herself as her brother, captivating Vienna's elite and drawing the envy of Mozart's rival, Antonio Salieri. Her deception grows increasingly complex as she attempts to maintain the ruse, protect her family's reputation and navigate her relationship with Salieri. The series stands apart from the upcoming English-language series Amadeus, which Sky has commissioned in the U.K., and will see White Lotus actor Will Sharpe play Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. That drama is a reimagining of Peter Shaffer's 1979 stage play Amadeus, which inspired Milos Forman's 1984 Oscar-winning adaptation. 'What we definitely didn't want to do was a remake of Amadeus,' Mozart Mozart showrunner Andreas Gutzeit, who created the series and co-wrote it with Swantje Oppermann (Dignity), tells The Hollywood Reporter. 'The desire is to tell a new story for a younger audience, and to tell the forgotten story of Maria Anna, who was a musical genius of her own, perhaps as talented, or more so, than her superstar brother.' 'Mozart's sister isn't a secret, but we don't know much about her life, other than she was also a child prodigy and that she and Amadeus toured together to every royal court in Europe at the time,' notes Clara Zoë My-Linh von Arnim, who is directing the series. 'But she had the misfortune of being a woman and then, when she turned a marriageable age, she was dragged off the stage, in the truest sense of the word. There is a lot of speculation on how big her influence was on Amadeus' music, on his compositions, over the years.' Jessica De Rooij, who composed the award-winning music for Sisi, is back for Mozart Mozart, giving Mozart's iconic compositions a contemporary edge for the show. Gutzeit and Jens Freels (Dignity) serve as executive producers, with Simona Weber producing. The ensemble cast includes Eidin Jalali (The Swarm, Maxton Hall), Verena Altenberger (Wild Republic), Peter Kurth (Babylon Berlin), Philipp Hochmair (Freud), Sonja Weisser (Maxton Hall), Lisa Vicari (Next Level) and Annabelle Mandeng (Vikings: Valhalla). Produced by Gutzeit's Story House Pictures in co-production with ARD, ORF and The Dreaming Sheep Company, Mozart Mozart is being sold internationally by Bavaria Media and Beta Film.

Sofia Carson and Corey Mylchreest share a love story in My Oxford Year trailer
Netflix has officially unveiled the trailer for My Oxford Year, a coming-of-age drama based on Julia Whelan's bestselling novel. The film, which will be available on the streaming platform starting August 1, stars Sofia Carson and Corey Mylchreest as the leads.

However, her plans take an unexpected turn when she meets Jamie (Mylchreest), a charming and clever local who changes both their lives. The trailer depicts the blossoming attraction between Anna and Jamie, leading to a brief but intense romance. While they bond over their shared love of poetry, their relationship faces complications as their feelings deepen.

The film also features a talented supporting cast, including Dougray Scott, Catherine McCormack, and Harry Trevaldwyn. The screenplay is written by Allison Burnett and Melissa Osborne, with Carson serving as an executive producer alongside Caroline Levy and others.
