Netflix has just dropped the curtain on its highly anticipated limited series Apple Cider Vinegar, giving us a tantalising first look at Kaitlyn Dever (Dopesick, Booksmart) as Belle Gibson, the wellness influencer whose meteoric rise was built on a lie.
Set against the backdrop of Instagram’s early days, the series explores the story of two young women chasing a cure for life-threatening illnesses—transforming into global health icons in the process. But what seems like an inspiring tale of resilience and community is quickly unravelled by the truth hiding in plain sight.
Touted as “a true-ish story based on a lie,” Apple Cider Vinegar delves deep into the power and pitfalls of online culture, the allure of wellness, and the murky lines between authenticity and fabrication.
Slated to premiere in 2025, the show promises to be an intriguing and timely exploration of the internet age’s most bizarre rise-and-fall tales, with Dever poised to deliver a gripping performance.
Mark your calendars—this is one series you won’t want to miss.
