Wellmania: Extreme Misadventures in the Search for Wellness

Product Information

I’m so excited about this project, the whole team is awesome. We’ve been working on it for a while and I’ve been busting to tell everyone about it. I’m drawn to projects that centre around interesting, dynamic and complex lead female characters and that’s exactly what Wellmania is. I’m stoked to be working with Netflix and tell this Australian story to an international audience, and to also be an executive producer so I can boss people around.” Jenna Ortega Drops Out Of ‘Scream VII’ After Co-Star Melissa Barrera’s Firing — Is Netflix's 'Wednesday' To Blame?

Played by comedian Celeste Barber, Liv is a food critic whose dream job in New York as a cooking show judge is put in jeopardy when she heads home to Australia on a green card mission. There, she's given a bad health diagnosis, meaning she can't be approved for the all-important permanent resident card. So, she embarks on a hardcore wellness journey, trying every last thing on the trending list to turbo charge her health — for example, a "Bondi Cleanse," a "four-day regime of fasting, herbal laxatives, acupuncture, cupping, and faecal purge—" whether it works for her or not. a b Cant, Ash (12 January 2023).
