Could there be a Season 2 of The Runarounds? Renewal status and other details, explored

After the success of Outer Banks, Jonas Pate is back with another teen drama, The Runarounds. The Prime Video series is the perfect blend of music, romance, friendships, and teenage struggles.

The show revolves around a bunch of high schoolers who form a band and decide to take a shot at a career in music soon after their graduation. All episodes of the show began streaming on September 1, 2025.

Audiences who have binged the series are now wondering whether there will be The Runarounds Season 2. As of now, Prime Video has not renewed the show, but series creators have expressed their interest in continuing the story.

The renewal status and possibility of The Runarounds Season 2

The Runarounds Season 2 has not been ordered by Prime Video as of now. However, fans need not worry. The show has came out just recently, and the streaming platform usually takes a few weeks before deciding about the renewal of a program.

Prime Video will analyze the performance of the show, including its viewership numbers, budget, reviews, and profitability, before taking a call about its continuation or cancellation. If the series earns a decent fan following and viewership in the upcoming days, there will be a high possibility of it getting a second season.

Meanwhile, series creator Jonas Pate is willing to continue the story of the band. In an exclusive interview with Entertainment Weekly, Pate said he was planning to make at least five seasons of the teen drama:

“We have a whole architecture for five-plus seasons mapped out that tells the story of what happens to them.”

The final decision, however, lies with Prime Video, and we need to wait for an official confirmation from the streamer. If The Runarounds Season 2 does get greenlit in the next few weeks, it will take around a year to be produced. Hence, the potential second season could begin streaming on Prime Video in the latter part of 2026.

What could happen in The Runarounds Season 2?

A potential second season could revolve around what happens after the band finally gets a record deal. Charlie, Bez, Neil, Topher, and Wyatt now have the chance to record music and perform on bigger stages. They would also realize that success comes with a fresh set of challenges.

Charlie might struggle with being both the leader of the band and the one who supports his family. Neil may have to deal with his father’s poor health while trying to focus on music. Wyatt could face tough choices if his mother tries to come back into his life.

Topher might feel torn about giving up college, and Sophia will likely need to let go of her medical school dreams to stay with the band as their songwriter. Season 2 could explore how fame tests their friendships, relationships, and how far they are willing to go for their dreams.
