Max and Chloe’s adventures are getting retold.
Amazon Prime Video has officially found its live-action Max and Chloe for the upcoming Life is Strange TV series adaptation. Tatum Grace Hopkins and Maisy Stella will play Max and Chloe in the upcoming series, which now appears to be ramping up production after being greenlit by Amazon in September 2025.

Life is Strange TV series finds its Max and Chloe
Amazon’s upcoming TV series adaptation of the first Life is Strange game is picking up steam. After reports circulated over actor Maisy Stella’s casting as Max Caulfield earlier in January this year, Amazon made it clear this week that those reports were slightly off-base: Stella will instead play Chloe Price, Max's childhood friend. Joining her is Tatum Grace Hopkins, who will play the protagonist of the original game, Max Caulfield herself.
Here’s the series’ official logline, as per Variety:
“[The show follows Max (Hopkins)], a photography student, who discovers she can rewind time while saving the life of her childhood best friend, Chloe (Stella). As she struggles to understand this new skill, the pair investigate the mysterious disappearance of a fellow student, uncovering a dark side to their town that will ultimately force them to make an impossible life or death choice that will impact them forever.”
The logline points to the series adapting the events of Life is Strange (2015), stopping just short of adapting its prequel Life is Strange: Before the Storm (2017), or its later sequels. Charlie Covell (The End of the F***ing World) will serve as the series’ executive producer and showrunner, while Dmitri M. Johnson, Michael Lawrence Goldberg, and Timothy I. Stevenson will executive produce under their Story Kitchen banner. Square Enix, Story Kitchen, LuckyChap, and Amazon MGM Studios are producing.
Maisy Stella, who will play Chloe Price, is best known for her role as Daphne in the ABC television series Nashville, and for starring in the film My Old Ass, for which she received several awards including the Critics’ Choice Movie Award for Best Young Actor/Actress. Tatum Grace Hopkins will make her TV debut as Max Caulfield, having primarily worked in theatre prior to her casting in this series, as well as a short film called Meek.
Life is Strange fans are eating well this year. Amid news of the TV series adaptation ramping up production, the conclusion to Max and Chloe’s story, Life is Strange: Reunion, is also set to launch on 26 March, 2026.
