Not too way back, Julia Garner starred in Netflix’s Inventing Anna, by which she portrayed real-life con artist/faux heiress Anna Delvey in a surprisingly tense limited series that was one in every of a number of dramatizations of IRL grifters to land within the house of a yr. Now, Netflix goes again to the start of Instagram for a scammer-informed doozy, and as with the Garner casting, they’ve knocked it out of the park with Kaitlyn Dever and Alycia Debnam-Carey.
Plot
Kaitlyn Dever (who got here to TV fame in Justified and can quickly floor in The Last Of Us) will now floor as she’s by no means been seen earlier than. She will likely be rivaled by Alycia Debnam-Carey (who was the glue of Concern The Strolling Lifeless and not too long ago appeared in The Misplaced Flowers Of Alice Hart) and for stable purpose.
This restricted sequence is predicated upon The Girl Who Fooled the World, the 2017 e-book from investigative journalists Beau Donelly and Nick Toscano. Dever picks up the position of Belle Gibson, a con artist who faked a number of most cancers diagnoses and places herself within the path of Debnam-Carey’s Milla Blake, a legit most cancers affected person. In a trailer that throws robust Inventing Anna vibes, Belle’s more and more wild tales (advised underneath the guise of “wellness” influencing) lead skeptics to query her well being standing, and Milla units out “to destroy her.”
Netflix’s synopsis guarantees a scandal-filled takedown:
Set on the beginning of Instagram, Apple Cider Vinegar follows two younger ladies who got down to remedy their life-threatening sicknesses via well being and wellness, influencing their world on-line communities alongside the way in which. All of which might be extremely inspiring if it have been all true.
This can be a true-ish story based mostly on a lie, concerning the rise and fall of a wellness empire; the tradition that constructed it up and the individuals who tore it down.
Filmed in Melbourne, Australia, this restricted sequence directed by Jeffrey Walker (Fashionable Household, The Suave Dodger).
