The ‘My Life With The Walter Boys’ Season 2 Trailer Teases Jackie’s Return To Colorado

Get ready for more teenage drama and love triangles, besties, because My Life With The Walter Boys Season 2 is officially on the way. Netflix announced My Life With The Walter Boys Season 2 would be hitting the streamer on Aug. 28, and now the first trailer for Season 2 is giving fans a look into what storylines we can look forward to watching.

My Life With The Walter Boys, which is based on the book by Ali Novak, follows 15-year-old Jackie (played by Nikki Rodriguez) who, after losing her parents and sister in a tragic car crash, moves in with the Walter family, which consists of 10 kids — nine sons and one daughter. While living in her new, chaotic household, Jackie finds herself developing feelings for two Walter boys — sweet and reliable Alex (Ashby Gentry), and the popular, yet mysterious Cole (Noah LaLonde).

If you watched Season 1 of My Life With The Walter Boys, then you probably know that it ended with Jackie leaving the Walter home in rural Colorado to return to New York City with her Uncle Richard. This left the season off on a *huge* cliffhanger, and many wondered what Season 2 would look like if it was picked up for another season. Now that Season 2 is set to release next month, here’s everything we know so far.

When will My Life With The Walter Boys season 2 be released?

On Saturday, July 5, the cast of My Life With The Walter Boys announced the Season 2 release date live from the Calgary Stampede. The second season will hit Netflix on Aug. 28.

As for what Season 2 will be about, in June 2024, Novak teased the show’s plot a bit when talking to Today about her follow-up book, My Return to the Walter Boys, which hit shelves in April 2025. “I can’t tell you too much, but the story obviously starts with Jackie returning to the Walter ranch after a summer in New York,” Novak said. “She left because she needed space to go home and face her demons and deal with her grief.”

Novack noted that though Jackie “isn’t fully healed” from the loss of her family, “she’s in a much better place than she was at the start of the first book.”

What’s In The My Life With The Walter Boys Trailer?

The trailer for Season 2, which dropped on July 7, shows a little more of Jackie’s inner turmoil. “I spent all summer spiraling about how and why I left,” Jackie says in the trailer. “I don’t belong anywhere anymore.” Katherine Walter then tells Jackie, “You do belong, Jackie. With us.” At the end of the 30-second teaser trailer, Cole asks Jackie, “Why did you really come back?”

who else is starring in My Life With The Walter Boys season 2?

According to Netflix, many cast members from Season 1 of My Life With The Walter Boys will be reprising their roles for Season 2. In addition to Rodriguez, LaLonde, and Gentry, Season 2 will also star Sarah Rafferty, Marc Blucas, Connor Stanhope, Johnny Link, Corey Fogelmanis, and Jaylan Evans.

Recurring cast members will include Zoë Soul, Isaac Arellanes, Myles Perez, Alex Quijano, Ashley Tavares, Dean Petriw, Alix West Lefler, Lennix James, Alisha Newton, Ellie O’Brien, Kolton Stewart, Mya Lowe, Gabrielle Jacinto, Jesse Lipscombe, and Nathaniel Arcand.

I couldn’t be more excited to see Jackie reunite with the Walter Boys in Season 2. Who knows… maybe we’ll finally find out if Jackie and Cole actually end up together.
