Netflix has shared the official trailer for its upcoming limited drama, starring Kaitlyn Dever (Dopesick, Unbelievable) and Alycia Debnam-Carey (Fear the Walking Dead) as wellness gurus.
Inspired by Beau Donelly and Nick Toscano’s The Woman Who Fooled the World book, the series will be available for streaming starting on February 6. “Set at the birth of Instagram, the miniseries follows two young women who set out to cure their life-threatening illnesses through health and wellness, influencing their global online communities along the way.
All of which would be incredibly inspiring if it were all true,” reads the official synopsis. “This is a true-ish story based on a lie, about the rise and fall of a wellness empire; the culture that built it up and the people who tore it down.” Check out the Apple Cider Vinegar trailer below (watch more trailers): The video introduces Dever as a young woman who lies about being diagnosed with multiple types of cancers as part of her plans to become a famous wellness guru.
