Prime Video has officially cancelled The Runarounds from Jonas Pate. The show, which premiered on September 1, 2025, followed a group of friends who dream of becoming a famous rock band. It's their last summer before they have to tackle adulthood, and they decide to give everything to their dream.
But while the first season had plenty of romance and original music, it looks like we won't be seeing their dreams reach new heights.
Keep reading for the latest update on The Runarounds' cancellation — and what the band had to say.
Deadline first confirmed the cancellation on April 3, 2026, nearly a month after Lilah Pate (who plays Sophia on The Runarounds, Gigi on The Summer I Turned Pretty, and Peeler in Outer Banks) booked a role on Taylor Sheridan’s new show Frisco King.
"While the TV series may have come to a close, as a band we're here to stay. This is merely the end of one chapter and the beginning of a new one," the band wrote on Instagram. "We hope the unforgettable summer with our friends on the beach resonated with you. If the show inspired anyone, at any age, to try and start a garage band with their friends, then the mission was successful. Hearing your stories and connections with the show has been such a privilege and we truly couldn't be more lucky."
The Runarounds cast includes William Lipton, Axel Ellis, Jesse Golliher, Zendé Murdock, Jeremy Yun, Lilah Pate, Kelley Pereira, Maximo Salas, Marley Aliah, Shea Pritchard, Mark Wystrach, Hayes MacArthur, and Brooklyn Decker.
You can stream season 1 on Prime Video now.
Even though The Runarounds has come to an end, you can see the final season of Outer Banks on Netflix.
