It’s appropriate that Netflix’s ripe satire of the health business, Wellmania, was published during the same week that Gwyneth Paltrow has been regularly online.
The eight-part dramedy churns its way through colon flushing, cupping, and detoxifying in something marketed as the “Bondi Cleanse” with Goop and its clones squarely in the sights.
After collapsing in her native Australia during a brief vacation, Liv, played by Instagram spoofing hero Celeste Barber, embarks on a health journey to obtain a green card.
To receive the medical “go” and return to New York, where her dream job as a TV show judge awaits, the binge-drinking, cocaine-snorting, funny but slightly self-centered culinary writer is suddenly burdened with reversing years of YOLOing.
Following the inevitable failure of the cleanse, Liv and the show shift toward darker, more introspective Fleabag terrain with a dash of Miranda’s comic mistakes.
Here is all the information you require. As Wellmania keeps moving up Netflix’s top 10, we have been left wondering what might come next for the program after its debut season.
Release Date of Wellmania Season 2
Whether or if a season two is planned has not yet been confirmed in writing.
Within a few months of a show’s debut on the platform, if it does well with viewers (something Netflix is notoriously coy about), the streaming behemoth will usually announce a renewal.
It might take some time before we learn the fate of the shows as the first season only debuted last week (March 29).
If Wellmania is well received by viewers, which seems to be based on Netflix’s homepage, fresh episodes shouldn’t arrive any sooner than a year from now, with the earliest probable release date being in the spring of 2024.
The Cast of Wellmania Season 2
Without Celeste Barber, there wouldn’t be much of a program, so if the show were to be renewed, we’d expect her to return as Liv Healy, especially after she enthused over the show’s inspiration, Brigid Delaney’s book Wellmania: Misadventures in the Quest For Health.
According to her, after reading the novel, she thought, “This is a fantastic idea.” “I enjoy Brigid’s writing since she’s amusing, smart, and likable. I was on board from the start because it was hilarious.”
Moreover, we might anticipate the return of JJ Fong as Liv’s best friend Amy, who lives in Australia, and Lachlan Buchanan as her newlywed brother Gaz.
Also, there is Liv’s gym buddy Isaac (Alexander Hodge) and Gaz’s other half Dalbert (Remy Hii), not to mention Liv’s sporadic frightening employer Valerie from back in New York (Virginie Laverdure).
After the season finale, Genevive Mooy’s portrayal of Liv’s devoted mother Lorraine is the only major character whose existence is in doubt. What follows that significant cliffhanger?
The Plot of Wellmania Season 2
There is still a ton of content to discover in Wellmania, even though a second season has not yet been ordered.
Liv receives a pretty clean bill of health and returns to New York. Liv’s mother Lorraine confessed her shame for pressuring Liv’s father to continue his swimming despite warnings, which ultimately caused his heart attack.
Like with the Disaster Girl meme before her, Liv leaves a cordoned-off zone of pain at home. Afterward, it became clear that Lorraine had kept Liv from finding her prized green card.
Without saying goodbye properly, Liv leaves Australia and immediately returns to her life of revelry in the concrete jungle, the stuff that dreams are made of. But despite being so close to landing her dream career, Liv struggles.
Disaster strikes at home on the “arse-end side of the world,” but she pulls through to complete taping the show and positions herself for future success in the fickle world of talent competition television.
The conclusion of the episode occurs when Lorraine is clearing up Liv’s belongings in Sydney when she is unexpectedly struck by a van.
The episode of Wellmania closes with Gaz and Dalbert attempting to phone Liv from the hospital, but she misses the call due to the lights, camera, and activity of the cooking program. As a result, she is oblivious to what has happened to her mother.
The main topic of a second season would be if Lorraine survived the horrific crash. Liv might be forced to choose between her family and her work once she realizes what has happened, which could lead to a potential return to Australia.
