Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney‘s Welcome to Wrexham is back for a second season, and we can stream it on Disney Plus from September 13.
The six-time Emmy-nominated series lifts the lid on what exactly is happening behind the scenes of the third-oldest professional football club in the world.
Ryan and Rob, both 46, purchased Wrexham AFC over two years ago, and since the takeover, the team has gone from strength-to-strength which has all been documented on the programme.
In the first season, we saw Hollywood royalty settle into life at the helm of the Welsh club. While initially a little out of sorts, they quickly learned the rules and regulations and got to work guiding the team to some victories.
The show also focuses on the Wrexham community, the team of course, and the power of football.
Although initially, some people worried the actors’ involvement was a publicity stunt, they have been widely praised for their investment and involvement in the club, raising the profile of the city and promoting the Welsh language and culture.

Season two will be picking up where they left off, and covering real-life events that have happened over the course of the last season.
The series will likely focus on Wrexham’s epic season-long title tussle with Notts County, as well as their rise to the top.
They ended last season 2nd place in their league, having fought their way from 20th.
Wrexham recently won 3-1 against Boreham Wood making them Vanarama National League Champions, and they are now in League Two – a dream that was expressed throughout the first season.
The match was attended by Paul Rudd, who could therefore make a cameo.
He’s not the only famous face that could pop up – King Charles III and Camilla, the Queen Consort made a royal visit to their ground, The Racecourse Ground.

Ryan and Rob whisked the footballers off to Las Vegas to celebrate their epic win, which would make a great feature within one of the episodes (if slightly chaotic).
They are also in America in San Diego for a friendly match against Manchester United in July, but that may be slightly out of the filming schedule – could be good for a season three though.
Whatever happens, Disney Plus has promised the new series will be ‘wild’ and we believe them.
Welcome to Wrexham season one is available to stream on Disney Plus.
