“I am beyond thrilled that My Life with the Walter Boys has been renewed for a second season,” creator, showrunner, and executive producer Melanie Halsall told Netflix’s Tudum.
“We have been overwhelmed by the love and support that the audience has given the show and can’t wait to dive back into the world of Silver Falls and the lives of these characters.”
“The saying it takes a village couldn’t be more true as it pertains to the success of My Life with the Walter Boys,” added executive producer Ed Glauser.
“From Ali Novak’s original novel, brilliantly adapted by Melanie Halsall, to our wonderful cast who brought her characters to life, and Netflix’s steadfast commitment, we’re thrilled to continue Jackie’s journey with season two.”
My Life with the Walter Boys is a heartwarming coming-of-age story that follows fifteen-year-old Manhattanite Jackie Howard after losing her family in a tragic accident.
Jackie leaves behind her privileged and proper life in New York and moves to rural Colorado to be with her guardian – her mother’s best friend, Katherine, who is raising ten kids with her husband, George.
While settling into her new, chaotic countryside home, Jackie is determined to stay focused on her dream of getting into Princeton… all while wrapping her head around her feelings for two very different Walter brothers: the reliable and bookish Alex, and the mysterious and troubled Cole.
As Jackie tries to navigate her new life, the feelings and tensions she tries to deny threaten to throw everything off course. Will she be able to stay true to herself and still find romance?
The cast includes Nikki Rodriguez (Jackie), Sarah Rafferty (Katherine), Marc Blucas (George), Noah LaLonde (Cole), Ashby Gentry (Alex), Connor Stanhope (Danny), Johnny Link (Will), Corey Fogelmanis (Nathan), Dean Petriw (Jordan), Lennix James (Benny), Alix West Lefler (Parker), and Isaac Arellanes (Isaac).
Also starring are Myles Perez (Lee), Zoë Soul (Hayley), Alisha Newton (Erin), Jaylan Evans (Skylar), Ashley Tavares (Tara), Moheb Jindran (Nikhil), Ellie O’Brien (Grace), Mya Lowe (Kiley), Gabrielle Jacinto (Olivia), Nathaniel Arcand (Mato), and Alex Quijano (Richard).
The Netflix series is based on Ali Novak’s popular WattPad novel of the same name, which Novak wrote when she was only fifteen and has over 80 million reads. It has since been turned into a published book.
My Life with the Walter Boys is produced by iGeneration Studios (The Kissing Booth trilogy of films) and Sony Pictures Television.
