‘My Life With the Walter Boys’ Renewed for Season 2 at Netflix

Netflix has renewed “My Life With the Walter Boys” for a second season.

The series is based on a WattPad novel of the same name by Ali Novak, which has since been published as a book, and hails from iGeneration Studios, the company behind Netflix’s popular “Kissing Booth” films. It follows fifteen-year-old Manhattanite Jackie Howard (Nikki Rodriguez) 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 (Sarah Rafferty), who is raising ten kids with her husband, George (Marc Blucas). 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 (Ashby Gentry), and the mysterious and troubled Cole (Noah LaLonde).
