Kaitlyn Dever is taking us on a wild ride in Netflix’s new series Apple Cider Vinegar! Based on a “true-ish” story (Hollywood translation: “we made most of this up, but it sounds legit”), the show dives into the chaotic, kale-soaked world of health and wellness—where everything is green juice, good vibes, and definitely not the truth.
The Plot: Health, Lies, and Instagram Likes
Set in the early days of Instagram, Apple Cider Vinegar introduces us to two young women who think kale smoothies and inspirational hashtags can cure everything. Life-threatening illnesses? Just slap a Valencia filter on it! These gals influence their way into global fame, creating a wellness empire that’s as shiny and fake as a $5 crystal. Spoiler alert: It all comes crashing down faster than a gluten-free muffin in the rain.
This is the tale of a wellness empire built on lies, brought down by, well… the truth—and maybe some angry Reddit threads. It’s like The Dropout, but with more turmeric shots.
Who’s in It?
Kaitlyn Dever stars as one half of the wellness-queen duo, bringing her A-game to a character who probably uses the phrase “manifesting abundance” way too much. She’s joined by a ridiculously talented cast, including:
– Ashley Zukerman – Probably the one character who sees through the nonsense.
– Aisha Dee – Guaranteed to deliver the sass.
– Alycia Debnam-Carey – Likely rocking some serious influencer vibes.
– Essie Davis – The wise one who says, “I told you so.”
– A bunch of other talented people whose characters are probably either scamming or getting scammed.
Melbourne Gets a Glow-Up
The series was filmed in Melbourne, which means it’s practically an influencer itself. Expect dreamy shots of latte art, yoga studios, and maybe a eucalyptus tree or two. You’ll be Googling “tickets to Melbourne” before the first episode ends.
Coming in Early 2025
Mark your calendars! Apple Cider Vinegar hits Netflix in early 2025, bringing the drama, the deceit, and the detox tea.
And yes, there’s already a trailer. Watch it below and prepare for a show that’s equal parts cringe, comedy, and oh no, they didn’t.
(P.S. No actual apple cider vinegar was harmed in the making of this show.)
