The release date for season 2 of Maxton Hall has finally been revealed — but things are not looking good for James and Ruby.
Prime Video released the first official trailer on Wednesday, June 4, which shows James (Damian Hardung) and Ruby’s (Harriet Herbig-Matten) honeymoon phase. The happiness doesn’t last long, though, when Ruby sees James with another girl — and chaos ensues.
Season 2, which premieres November 7, is based on the second part of Mona Kasten‘s Save You novel. According to the synopsis, Maxton Hall picks after James and Ruby’s “passionate night together in Oxford and her greatest life goal within reach, everything seems to be going perfectly for Ruby.”
Things take a turn, however, when “a stroke of fate in James’ family changes everything and James himself, of all people, brings her back from cloud nine to a harsh reality. Ruby is devastated. She has never had such strong feelings for anyone as she does for James — and never before has anyone hurt her so deeply.”

The logline continued: “She wants her old life back, where no one at Maxton Hall knew her yet and she wasn’t part of the elitist world of her classmates. But she can’t forget James — especially since he’s doing everything he can to win her back.”
In addition to Hardung, 26, and Herbig-Matten, 21, Sonja Weißer, Ben Felipe, Fedja van Huêt, Runa Greiner, Justus Riesner, Andrea Guo, Frederic Balonier and Eli Riccardi return for the second season. Director Martin Schreier also came back to direct Maxton Hall — The World Between Us.
Prime VideoThe German-language TV drama premiered in May 2024 and introduced viewers to an unlikely enemies-to-lovers romance between private school classmates Ruby Bell (Herbig-Matten) and James Beaufort (Hardung). While attending their prestigious U.K. school, scholarship recipient Ruby unwittingly witnessed a secret that put her on the radar of the wealthy James.
Maxton Hall quickly found record-breaking success, becoming the most-watched non-U.S. title during its first week on Prime Video. The series was renewed for a second season immediately after its debut, and production started in June 2024.
Herbig-Matten weighed in on the surprising success of Maxton Hall worldwide, exclusively telling Us Weekly in June 2024, “It is really surprising. We never expected that. We always thought, ‘Hopefully it’s gonna work in Germany.’ So it’s, like, a huge surprise. It’s so international and I’m really overwhelmed, but I’m really happy and proud that people love it.”
She continued: “And I think it’s not only a success for us, but also for the German industry. A project can be international and can [find its audience] internationally.”

Hardung, meanwhile, couldn’t believe how many different languages their series has been translated into.
“It got dropped I think in 19 languages and then we have sub[titles] in over 40 languages. It’s been ranked the No. 1 show on Prime Video in over 120 regions. It’s all these numbers that you can’t really grasp with your own mind,” he shared with Us that same month. “It’s weird tuning in and listening to yourself [speak in these different languages]. So that is fun. And especially the English language is really fun because obviously I do speak English, so it is really interesting to understand and hear your own dubbing voice in that language.”
Maxton Hall returns to Prime Video on November 7.
