Season 1 centers on the core group from the books, with these key players:

• Ella Bright (The Crown, Malory Towers) as Hannah Wells — A wry, hockey-hating music major/songwriter.
• Belmont Cameli (Until Dawn, Saved by the Bell) as Garrett Graham — Briar U’s womanizing star hockey player/center.
• Mika Abdalla (Snack Shack, Sex Appeal) as Allie Hayes — Hannah’s friend; sets up future storylines.
• Antonio Cipriano (Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin) as John Logan — One of Garrett’s hockey teammates/roommates (his book is The Mistake).
• Jalen Thomas Brooks (The Pitt, Thanksgiving) as John Tucker — Another teammate (often just called Tucker).
• Josh Heuston (Dune: Prophecy, Heartbreak High) as Justin Kohl — Hannah’s longtime crush, a college rock band singer.
• Stephen Kalyn (Gen V, Motorheads) as Dean Di Laurentiis — Charismatic teammate; his romance with Allie is teased for later.

Additional cast includes Steve Howey as Garrett’s father, Phil Graham (a retired hockey player), and Khoebe Clarke as football quarterback Beau Maxwell, plus a large recurring ensemble (e.g., AJ Abell, Kai Bradbury, Dylan Kingwell, and others).

The cast has been praised for chemistry, especially among the hockey “bros” (Garrett, Logan, Dean, Tucker). Off-Campusus Season 1: What to Expect in Season 1

Season 1 primarily adapts The Dealthe first book. It’s an opposites-attract fake-dating romance:

• Quiet, focused music student Hannah Wells tutors cocky hockey star, Garrett Graham.
• In exchange, Garrett helps her make her crush, Ush Ju,stin jealous.
• What starts as a transactional “deal” (no feelings allowed) turns into real attraction, tension, and emotional growth amid college parties, hockey games, friendships, and personal challenges.

Expect:

• Steamy chemistry and romance between Hannah and Garrett.
• Fun group dynamics among the hockey teammates and their friends.
• Themes of love, heartbreak, self-discovery, and navigating adulthood.
• Hockey scenes, campus life, late-night shenanigans, and the “locker room and late nights” energy shown in the trailer.
• Teases/setup for future couples (e.g., glimpses of Dean & Allie) since the series plans to cover the broader book universe.

It’s positioned as sexy, fun, and bingeable YA/NA romance with drama—think a hockey-flavored blend of college soaps and book adaptations like The Summer I Turned Pretty.

Filming wrapped in late 2025, and the show has built buzz with cast events and trailers leading up to the drop. If you’re a fan of the books, note that adaptations often tweak details for TV pacing while keeping the core emotional arcs.
