Washington DC, April 24
The trailer of the romantic series 'Off Campus', which is a book-to-movie adaptation of the same name by Elle Kennedy, is finally out. The series will exclusively premiere on Amazon Prime Video on May 13, 2026.

As per the trailer, the series is expected to follow the evergreen rule of romance, "opposites attract," between the quiet songwriter Hanna and Briar University's all-star hockey athlete, Garett, played by Belmont Cameli.
In the opening sequences of the trailer, Ella Bright was seen striking a deal with Cameli, which includes him playing the role of a fake boyfriend to her while she helps him with his academics. Bright plans it out to attract her crush, Josh Heuston, who plays the role of Justin in the series.
Amazon Prime Video shared the trailer on its Instagram handle on Friday.

As someone who read the 'Off Campus' books, I'm cautiously optimistic. The trailer captures the spirit of the series—the chemistry between Hanna and Garett is spot on. But I hope they don't tone down the emotional depth. The book had some real moments of self-discovery beyond just romance. Also, nice to see Amazon Prime bringing book adaptations to Indian audiences. 📚❤️
Look, I'm all for college romance, but why is every Hollywood show about elite sports teams? Feels a bit out of touch for Indian viewers like me who studied in regular colleges. Still, the trailer is fun—Ella Bright is charming and Belmont Cameli has that "tough guy with a soft heart" vibe that works. Let's see if the series can stand on its own without the book hype. @AmazonPrime, hope you dub it in Hindi too! 🔊
Fake boyfriend deal to attract a crush? That's such a cliché, but the trailer looks cute! 😂 I love that they're adapting Elle Kennedy's books—her novels are huge among Indian bookstagrammers. But seriously, why is the release date so far away? May 2026? That's ages away! By the time it comes out, my patience would be gone. Abhi toh trailer hi dekhte rahenge. 🥲
Nice to see more book-to-screen adaptations coming to India. The trailer has a 'Never Have I Ever' meets 'Riverdale' energy, but with hockey. I'm curious how they'll handle the "opposites attract" dynamic—it can get predictable. Still, the cast looks talented, and the production values seem solid from the trailer. Chalo, ek baar to dekhenge.
