‘Apple Cider Vinegar’ Trailer Sees Kaitlyn Dever Play a Wellness Influencer and Scammer!! Check It Out!!

Everyone’s going to hate Kaitlyn Dever‘s character when the second season of The Last of Us premieres on HBO later this year, but Netflix is giving us a head start. Dever stars as Belle Gibson, an Australian wellness influencer and scammer, in the first trailer for Apple Cider Vinegar. The six-episode miniseries will premiere on Netflix on February 6, 2025.

Dever stars as Gibson, a wellness influencer who believes that a rival, Milla Blake (Alycia Debnam-Carey, Fear the Walking Dead), is outpacing her thanks to a recent cancer diagnosis. Naturally, the driven Gibson then fabricates her own diagnosis, and then claims that she’s using her own all-natural health regime to successfully manage it. However, as she builds an online following and becomes more and more influential, she compounds her situation by piling on lie after lie – until people start to get hurt, and it all starts crumbling around her. The trailer’s blackly comedic tone – and Gibson’s complete unawareness of her own sociopathy – promises a series as tart and astringent as its namesake, with or without the alleged health benefits.

Who Else Stars In ‘Apple Cider Vinegar’?

In addition to Dever (who, despite being American, fully blends in with the Australian cast) and Debnam-Carey, Apple Cider Vinegar boasts an impressive array of actors. It also stars Aisha Dee (Sissy), Tilda Cobham-Hervey (Young Woman and the Sea), Ashley Zukerman (Succession), Mark Coles Smith (Picnic at Hanging Rock), Susie Porter (The Artful Dodger), Matt Nable (Arrow), Phoenix Raei (The Night Agent), Chai Hansen (Night Sky), Richard Davies (Offspring), Kieran Darcy-Smith (Mr Inbetween), Catherine McClements (Return to Paradise), and Essie Davis (The Babadook). The series was shot on location in Melbourne, Australia.
