Prime Video has dropped the official trailer for its upcoming Off Campus show, and while the hype is on another level, multiple fans have complained it’s missing the darkest – and most important – part of the book. Off Campus premieres on Wednesday 13th May, and is an adaptation of Elle Kennedy’s book series of the same name. The story follows Briar University hockey players and their partners navigating love, college life, and friendships. As the trailer reveals, season one will focus on a fake dating deal between star player Garrett Graham (Belmont Cameli) and student Hannah Wells (Ella Bright), and already it’s clear there’s a lot of chemistry involved. Given its mix of hockey and romance, some viewers have already compared the adaptation to Heated Rivalry – but the similarities pretty much stop there. While Off Campus leans into romance, it also tackles some much heavier themes, and that’s exactly why the trailer is raising eyebrows. Off Campus readers are already questioning the missing storyline Notably, there’s not even a hint about the biggest part of Hannah’s backstory: that she was drugged and raped at a party when she was 15. Not only is there a graphic description of it in the books, but it’s a huge focus on how Hannah moves in the world and deals with her trauma. The reason readers are angry is that either 1) the incident won’t be a major part of the show or 2) the promotional campaign is misleading non-readers into believing it’ll be a lighthearted rom-com. Taking to X, one person wrote, “I’m failing to understand why this trailer and the show’s entire promotion doesn’t mention anything about a very big and potentially triggering to a lot of people plot point in this book that the audience should know about before hitting play.” After sharing their own trigger warning, the X user added, “The main character is drugged and raped at a party as a teenager and the book also has a very graphic depiction of it and it also focuses heavily on how she moves forward after and grows from her trauma.” i’m failing to understand why this trailer and the shows entire promotion, doesn’t mention anything about a very big and potentially triggering to a lot of people plot point in this book that the audience should know about before hitting play https://t.co/8wQIIxLgNr — mack ⚢ (@bookishlesbians) April 23, 2026 The thread has sparked plenty of conversation, with another writing, “I’m so curious if they took that plot point out and if so how they’re going to replace it because?” The OP replied, “One of my followers was saying in the replies that they think they scrapped the plot because of how young the actress was when she was cast (17) which would make sense, but I’m so confused because it’s like a pretty huge and significant plot point.” A third added, “I hope it’s at the very least put as a trigger warning at the start of the first episode and not only when it’s thematically talked about in the show.” Will the sexual assault plot be in the TV show? Although there’s not a huge amount of information about the TV adaptation, we do know it will include the sexual assault storyline in some way – it’s just unclear to what extent.

She’s not defined by the rape, but obviously you see through flashbacks, there are certain things that trigger her.” A number of fans have also jumped in to defend the show’s decision not to include this in the trailer, with one writing, “In the book all she does is talk about it. “They’re not going to show a scene of her getting assaulted. And they’ll most likely put a warning on the actual episode because that’s what every TV show has done. None of them have ever shown it in a trailer.” For all the latest film and TV updates and hot takes, like our Facebook page. Featured image credit: Prime Video Post navigation Next storyPrevious story
