Avan Jogia turns 34 as his biggest TV swing in years arrives. On February 18, 2026, he stars opposite Dove Cameron in 56 Days, an erotic thriller on Prime Video. The show adapts the novel by Catherine Ryan Howard and follows a whirlwind romance that ends in a murder probe. Decider lists it as a top February pick, and Amazon confirms a binge-drop of all eight episodes.

Away from set, Halsey posted a warm birthday tribute on February 9, 2026, calling Jogia “blessed to spend my life with him.” The couple stepped out often in late 2025, including Venice events, then kept things low-key until this week’s posts.

The series at a glance

The story centers on Oliver and Ciara, two strangers who collide, rush into love, then face a death that police must untangle 56 days later. Producers include James Wan through Atomic Monster. People’s exclusive trailer write-up notes the show dials up obsession and secrecy, and that the TV version drops the book’s pandemic setting.

Fresh buzz from the past week

Cameron has been candid about the vulnerability of filming nude scenes and how the show pushes into adult themes. Those quotes landed days ago, helping set audience expectations for tone and rating.

Just days earlier, Jogia and Cameron showed the pilot at SCAD TVfest in Atlanta, then did a Q&A. Red-carpet photo sets circulated, keeping the series in feeds before launch week.

Where this fits in Jogia’s career

Many still know Jogia from Victorious and his ABC Family thriller Twisted. He later fronted Now Apocalypse, then shifted to features like Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City, and an interactive turn in Netflix’s Choose Love. The new series returns him to the long-form, prestige lane, with a darker register than his early teen-idol work. Industry coverage and studio notes back that arc.

Release plan and how to watch

All eight episodes arrive on Wednesday, February 18, 2026, in more than 240 regions where Prime Video operates. Expect the full-season binge model, not weekly drops. The official trailer and key art are live on Amazon channels now.

Personal life update

Halsey confirmed their engagement in September 2024 and has kept most details private since. The birthday post on February 9, 2026, is the latest public nod to their relationship. People previously reported the pair’s rare red-carpet stops in Venice in September 2025.

Why it matters

Jogia’s draw bridges two audiences. Fans of teen-era hits like Victorious get a familiar face in an adult thriller. Prime Video gains a buzzy title that can spike completion rates with a single-day release. The press cycle, from SCAD TVfest to Cameron’s candid interviews, signals that 56 Days aims for conversation, not comfort viewing.
