Returning: Physical

Aussie Murray Bartlett joins Rose Byrne for second season of '80s comedy.

Season 2 of dark comedy Physical, starring and executive produced by Rose Byrne, returns to Apple TV+ in June.

From creator, writer and executive producer Annie Weisman, the 10-episode season sees fellow Aussie Murray Bartlett joining the cast.

Season two finds our hero Sheila Rubin (Byrne) having successfully launched her first fitness video only to encounter some new and bigger obstacles on her path. She is torn between loyalty to her husband (Scovel) and the values he represents, and a dangerous attraction to someone else. And since she’s no longer the only game in town, she finds herself having to outrun some fierce new competitors on the road to building a full-fledged fitness empire.

In addition to Byrne, “Physical” stars Rory Scovel, Dierdre Friel, Della Saba, Lou Taylor Pucci and Paul Sparks. Joining the all-star ensemble cast for season two is Critics Choice Award-winner Murray Bartlett (“The White Lotus”) in the new role of “Vincent ‘Vinnie’ Green,” a charismatic fitness instructor, weight-loss guru, and pioneer of the late-night infomercial.

“Physical” is produced by Tomorrow Studios (an ITV Studios partnership). Created, written and executive produced by Annie Weisman, who also serves as showrunner, “Physical” is directed by Stephanie Laing, who also serve as executive producer along with Marty Adelstein and Becky Clements for Tomorrow Studios, Alexandra Cunningham, John McNamara, Sera Gamble, Craig Gillespie and Byrne.

Friday, 3 June on Apple TV+.

  1. I found the first season a bit of a non-event, but stuck with it because of Rose Byrne. Now that Murray Bartlett has signed up, I just might have to stick with it.
