Release Date, Cast, Images, and More: My Life With the Walter Boys Season 2

Netflix’s hit teen drama My Life With the Walter Boys is capturing hearts worldwide with its fresh take on love, loss, and coming of age in rural Colorado. With its highly anticipated second season on the horizon—and a third already confirmed—the series promises to dig even deeper into its complex characters and family dynamics.

The Story So Far

My Life With the Walter Boys is based on Ali Novak’s bestselling novel, which originated on Wattpad, a renowned platform for aspiring fiction writers. This same site brought audiences The Kissing Booth, another teen favorite that became a major franchise for Netflix. Like those before her, the show’s protagonist, 15-year-old Jackie Howard (played by Nikki Rodriguez), is thrown into a whirlwind of change after tragedy strikes.

After the sudden loss of her wealthy Manhattan family in a car accident, Jackie is sent to the rural community of Silver Falls, Colorado, to live with her mother’s college best friend, Katherine Walter (Sarah Rafferty), and her husband George (Marc Blucas). The couple’s busy household includes a rambunctious pack of boys and one daughter, creating a lively—but challenging—new life for city-born Jackie.

Season 1 placed Jackie in the center of a classic love triangle between two Walter brothers: the sensitive Alex (Ashby Gentry) and the brooding ex-jock Cole (Noah LaLonde). Jackie’s emotional journey—navigating love, loyalty, and belonging—drove the show’s appeal, ultimately making its way to Netflix’s global top 10 charts in 88 countries.

Season 2 and Beyond: What’s Next?

Excitement is mounting as Netflix has officially renewed My Life With the Walter Boys not just for a second season, but also for a third, which is slated to arrive in 2026. While a specific release date for season 2 hasn’t been confirmed, reports suggest a summer 2025 premiere is likely.

The streamer’s announcement has only increased the buzz on social media, with fans already speculating about how the cliffhangers of season 1 will resolve. As the show’s official Instagram shares sneak peeks from set and character updates, anticipation continues to soar among loyal viewers.

Revisiting the Season 1 Finale

Season 1 ended with Jackie torn between her feelings for Alex and Cole. Even while she was dating Alex, Jackie couldn’t deny her lingering affection for Cole, especially after learning he quietly repaired her late sister’s treasured teapot. An impulsive kiss with Cole pushed Jackie to her emotional limits, causing her to flee back to New York with her Uncle Richard (Alex Quijano).

What to Expect in Season 2

Jackie’s return to Colorado is inevitable, thanks to Katherine’s encouragement. According to the official logline, Jackie is determined to patch things up with Alex and create boundaries with Cole, but fitting back into Silver Falls—and the Walter family—proves far from simple.

Alex, now focused on training for a risky rodeo event and enjoying his newfound popularity, meets a potential new love interest in Maria (Riele Downs, known for her role on Bel-Air). Meanwhile, Cole tries to fill the void left by football with a new role at school, but old habits threaten to resurface and stir up fresh drama.

Season 2 won’t just zero in on the love triangle—it plans to flesh out more of the Walter family’s complexity. Actor Ashby Gentry teased in an interview with Teen Vogue that fans will see the brothers’ more "beautifully flawed" sides: “You get to see all of them go through screw-ups in season 2. And it’s awesome.”

Along with the main trio—Nikki Rodriguez, Ashby Gentry, and Noah LaLonde—season 2 welcomes several new characters that promise to shake things up:

  • Maria (Riele Downs): Alex’s new love interest
