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.
What is ‘Maxton Hall’ about?
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.
Which books are Season 2 and Season 3 based on?
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.
Maxton Hall Season 3: It’s officially underway!
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.
Behind-the-scenes: juicy hints and fans swarming the set!
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.”
All about ‘Maxton Hall’ Season 2
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.
When will Season 3 of ‘Maxton Hall’ premiere?
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.
