We’re heading back to the halls of Hollywood Arts High School. Netflix is officially reviving the world of “Victorious” with a brand-new spin-off called “Hollywood Arts,” and honestly, the setup already sounds pretty fun. Daniella Monet is returning as Trina Vega, the endlessly confident (and often hilariously clueless) aspiring performer from the original series. This time she’s back at her old school, not as a student, but as a substitute teacher trying to guide a new generation of performing arts kids. Here’s everything you need to know about “Hollywood Arts” before it lands on Netflix in 2026.

“Hollywood Arts” is set to debut on Netflix on Thursday, Oct. 15, 2026. As with all drops from the world’s largest streaming service, this “Victorious” spin-off will premiere in full at 3:01 a.m. ET.

Can you watch ‘Hollywood Arts’ for free?

Probably not. Netflix doesn’t offer a free trial anymore, so you’ll need a subscription once “Hollywood Arts” drops.

What is ‘Hollywood Arts’ about?

“Hollywood Arts” picks up years after the events of “Victorious.” Trina Vega is still chasing her acting dreams, but things haven’t exactly worked out the way she imagined. She ends up returning to her old high school as a substitute teacher, where she somehow becomes a mentor to a new group of ambitious performing arts students. The show leans into that same over-the-top creative environment that made the original series fun, with theater kids, big personalities, and plenty of chaos in the halls.
