Maxton Hall season 2: Release date speculation, cast, plot and latest news
Maxton Hall brought some serious drama in its first outing on Prime Video.
The six-part German series, which is based on Mona Kasten’s best-selling book Save Me, centres on the relationship between scholarship student Ruby and entitled rich kid James following an unexpected encounter at prestigious school Maxton Hall.
Despite coming from wildly different worlds, they found themselves repeatedly drawn to another. And although there were plenty of hurdles placed before them, by the end of the season they reconnected – that is until tragedy struck, casting doubt on their future.
But are there plans to revisit Ruby and James’s story?

Will there be a Maxton Hall season 2?
Yes – Maxton Hall has been recommissioned, as reported by Deadline.
It has “achieved the largest first week global viewership for an International Original in Prime Video history,” said the streamer.
“While we started off as a local production for the German market, Prime Video first built enthusiasm for our project internally and then shared it with the world,” said UFA producer Ceylan Yildirim. “We are overwhelmed by the euphoric reactions.”
James Farrell, Amazon MGM Studio’s VP of International Originals, also said that the response “proves that local stories have the power to captivate global audiences”.

Maxton Hall season 2 release date: When will it air?
We don’t expect new episodes to arrive until 2025 at least.
As soon as we know more, we’ll have all of the details for you right here.
Maxton Hall season 2 cast: Who could return?
Harriet Herbig-Matten as Ruby Bell in Maxton Hall. Prime Video
We’d expect Harriet Herbig-Matten to return as Ruby and Damian Hardung to reprise the role of James.
Other characters who could likely return are:
Sonja Weißer as James’s sister Lydia, who is pregnant
Fedja Van Huêt as James and Lydia’s father Mortimer
Justus Riesner as James’s best friend Alistair
Andrea Guo as Ruby’s best friend Lin
Ben Felipe as Cyril, a Maxton Hall student
Runa Greiner as Ruby’s sister Ember
Julia-Maria Köhler as Ruby and Ember’s mother Helen
Martin Neuhaus as Ruby and Ember’s father Angus
There are plenty of other faces that could return, and we’d expect some new additions, too.
But we’ve likely seen the last of Clelia Sarto, who plays Cordelia, James and Lydia’s mother, after her character died (although she could feature in flashback form).
Maxton Hall season 2 plot: What could happen?
Harriet Herbig-Matten as Ruby Bell and Damian Hardung as James Beaufort in Maxton Hall. Prime Video
In the season 1 finale, Ruby and James were finally back on track after having a big heart-to-heart and sharing a passionate kiss, before sealing the deal.
But tragedy was just around the corner.
When James and Lydia returned home from their Oxford interviews, their father informed them that Cordelia, their mother, had died after suffering a stoke, prompting James to leap up and attack his father.
The season wrapped up with Ruby surrounded by her family, regaling them with tales from her trip to Oxford, where she appeared to nail her third and final interview.
By contrast, James’s life had been upended, leaving him bereft of any hope or joy.
What do their respective futures hold? And will James walk away from Ruby following that shocking development?
