It’s official — Off Campus series regulars Mika Abdalla and Stephen Kalyn will take center stage in Season 2 which will spotlight the romantic relationship between their characters Allie Hayes (Abdalla) and Dean Di Laurentis (Kalyn). Prime Video made the announcement with a video, which you can watch below, and photos of the couple. In them, Kalyn is sporting more understated blonde highlights than the aggressive bleached hair Dean became known for in Season 1.
Off Campus is based on Elle Kennedy’s bestselling book series, with Season 1 drawing from the first novel, The Deal, focusing on Hannah (Ella Bright) and Garrett (Belmont Cameli). Book #3, The Score chronicles the relationship between Dean (Kalyn) and Allie (Abdalla).
The series sets up Dean and Allie as Season 2’s central couple by introducing them in Season 1, with their slow burn romance starting to develop. The Season 1 big finale cliffhanger involved their relationship too, kicking it to the next level. Additionally, Off Campus recently cast Phillipa Soo to recur in Season 2 as a theatre artist who is guest directing an original play at the college’s drama department where Allie is a student.

Off Campus may be following the same blueprint each year, letting a couple get to know each other over the course of a season before giving them their own installment. Similarly to Dean and Allie in Season 1, the series will introduce India Fowler as Grace Ivers, the love interest to Antonio Cipriano‘s John Logan, in Season 2. They are the couple of Book #2, The Mistake.

The timing of Allie taking the spotlight is great too as Abdalla just went viral with her Jennifer Lopez social media video. (One of Allie’s most memorable Season 1 scenes was dressing up as Lopez and dancing to one of her hits at a Halloween party.)
“We are so excited to continue Allie and Dean’s story as our primary romance of season two after kickstarting their romance in season one,” series creator Louisa Levy said. “But if you fell in love with Hannah and Garrett, don’t worry — they will still be an integral part of our robust ensemble. We’re looking forward to telling the next chapter of everyone’s story. There’s a lot for fans to look forward to!”
A college soap based on the bestselling book series, Off Campus follows an elite ice hockey team, and the women in their lives, as they grapple with love, heartbreak, and self-discovery—forging deep friendships and enduring bonds while navigating the complexities that come with transitioning into adulthood. The four hockey team players at the center of the books — and the show — are Garrett (Cameli), Cipriano (Logan), Kalyn (Dean) and Tucker from Book #4, The Goal (Jalen Thomas Brooks).
The series regulars for Off Campus Season 2 are Abdalla, Kalyn, Bright, Cameli, Cipriano, Brooks and Fowler, with Soo recurring.

Among Women 18-34, Season 1 is Prime Video’s most-viewed series debut season of all-time, per Amazon.
Abdalla, who led Hulu’s comedy Sex Appeal, recently starred in the 2024 indie Snack Shack opposite Gabe LaBelle, and appeared in The Pitt. Kalyn is a Canadian actor best known for his recurring role in Gen V and also appeared in Cruel Intentions, Motorheads, and Essex County.
