Off Campus creator Louisa Levy teases a new direction for the show after the departure of fan-favorite cast member Josh Heuston. The second season will focus on a different couple, adapting the novel 'The Mistake', which means a shift in the show's musical landscape.
Levy acknowledges the absence of Josh and his character, After Hours, will result in fewer musical moments. She explains, 'We don't have Josh and After Hours this season, so we don't have those bands.' However, she reassures fans that the show will still incorporate music in other ways, emphasizing the importance of 'needle drops and those songs that underscore a moment.'
Despite the changes, Levy remains open to bringing back Josh in the future. She expresses her love for the actor and hints at a potential return, stating, 'I love Josh and I would not write him off if I can find a way to bring Justin back at some point.' This suggests that the creator is willing to explore creative solutions to include the beloved character in future seasons.
The second season of Off Campus will introduce a new couple, India Fowler and a yet-to-be-announced love interest, as the show continues to adapt the books in the series. With the departure of Josh, the show's musical elements will evolve, but the creator promises a continued focus on the emotional core of the story.
