Despite having a very solid young career, spanning titles like “Red Bracelets” and “How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast),” it’s quite probable that Damian Hardung will be recognized for a long time as James Beaufort from “Maxton Hall.” Thus, he is already working on his future in order to diversify his trajectory, and one of his next productions seems especially interesting.



“Love Sucks” is one of the three upcoming projects currently on Hardung’s IMDb agenda. According to its distribution company, ZDF Studios, the title will be a <a href="https://spoiler.bolavip.com/en/topic/romance">romantic</a> series consisting of eight episodes, each 30-minutes long, mixed with crime, suspense, and many <a href="https://spoiler.bolavip.com/en/topic/fantasy">fantasy</a> elements.



Although it has not been announced whether a release date for the United States on theaters or streaming platforms will happen, it’s quite likely to come around if it has enough success. Here, check all about it.



<h2>What is the plot of ‘Love Sucks’?</h2>



The plot of “Love Sucks” will revolve around Zelda, who was trained as a boxer by her father to fight against visitors who come across the family boxing ring. Since it’s a tradition, it runs in her blood, and she is very good at it.

One day, Ben, a sensitive and sophisticated young man, visits the prizefight and, of course, is rapidly knocked out by Zelda. Nevertheless, the fight is just the start of their relationship, since both of them feel an instant connection that goes beyond words (or punches).



But there is another twist: Ben is revealed to be a vampire. And even worse, Zelda finds out that her family has extensively dedicated decades to hunting them down.



<h2>Who are the cast of ‘Love Sucks’?</h2>



Damian Hardung will play Ben, the vampire who falls deeply in love with Zelda, portrayed by Havana Joy Josephine Braun in her series debut. They will likely embody the same enemies-to-lovers dynamic developed by Ruby Bell and James Beaufort in “Maxton Hall”.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="SPEN#/tv/top-10-must-watch-series-like-maxton-hall-how-and-where-to-stream-them"></div>






The rest of the cast features performances by great German actors such as Philipp Christopher, Lisa-Marie Koroll, Rick Okon, and Anne Ratte-Polle, who you may recognize for playing Ines Kahnwald in “Dark.”



<h2>When will ‘Love Sucks’ be released?</h2>



“Love Sucks” will have its official premiere on July 1st at the Munich International Film Festival. The program announces that the screening will include a couple of episodes of the series, and, since it lasts 120 minutes, we can infer that we will learn more about the first four chapters when that date arrives.



However, as mentioned before, no distribution or streaming company seems to have reached out to the creator of the show, Marc O. Seng, to bring the series to the United States. But, given the rising celebrity status that Damian Hardung is beginning to experience, it’s not far-fetched to predict that the production could find a home in America shortly.

Despite being on <a href="https://spoiler.bolavip.com/en/prime-video">Prime Video</a> for only a week, “Maxton Hall” rapidly became the most-watched series worldwide, effortlessly dethroning “Fallout” from its position as the platform’s 2024 jewel.



The German show follows Ruby Bell, a brilliant student at Maxton Hall, a prestigious school for the wealthy, where she struggles to fit in but maintains her academic excellence. One day, she witnesses a dark secret involving James Beaufort, the school’s millionaire bad boy, who will stop at nothing to silence her.



The first parts consists of six episodes, and fans are already asking for a <a href="https://spoiler.bolavip.com/en/prime-video/prime-videos-maxton-hall-will-the-romantic-drama-have-a-second-season">second season.</a> Since “Maxton Hall” is inspired by <a href="https://spoiler.bolavip.com/en/lifestyle/maxton-hall-how-many-books-are-on-the-prime-video-adaptation">Mona Katsen’s trilogy</a>, there is plenty of material from the original source to keep going. What has Damian Hardung, the actor behind Beaufort, said about it?



<h2>Damian Hardung shared his hopes for a second season of ‘Maxton Hall’</h2>



In a recent interview with TV Insider, Hardung confirmed that Prime Video hasn’t given any word yet on another installment for Maxton Hall. However, he is confident that, since there is plenty of content still to adapt from the “Save Me” books, it will become a reality.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="ck-youtube"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Maxton Hall - Official Trailer | Prime Video" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/54dMhUses2A?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div>
</div></figure>



He also expressed concern about portraying his character in the darker tone that the second novel, “Save You,” displays. As those who have finished the first season remember, the last episode ends with a tragedy for Damian’s character, and now, it’s only going to get more sorrowful.



“In the second book, it’s really dark for James.” He explains, “As much as that is great stuff to reenact, I feel so much more fear than joy thinking about if we get lucky to get a second season to actually have to portray that because that would just entail so much pain to go through.”



Hardung is no stranger to <a href="https://spoiler.bolavip.com/en/topic/drama">dramatic</a>, heartbreaking productions. In fact, he began gaining fame with his lead role as Jonas in “Red Bracelets,” the German adaptation of the Spanish mega-success series about a couple of teenagers with deadly illnesses who form a bond in the hospital they are staying in.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="SPEN#/celebrities/damian-hardungs-upcoming-projects"></div>


Nevertheless, he hopes Ruby and Bell’s relationship perseveres through its ups and downs and finds a happy ending. According to him, there is no obstacle that their love can’t overcome.

Before the <a href="https://spoiler.bolavip.com/en/prime-video">Prime Video</a> romantic drama aired, he also made a name for himself on the small screen with the “Red Bracelets” series.
