Apple Cider Vinegar trailer: Kaitlyn Dever plays wellness scammer Belle Gibson
In the early 2010s, Australian influencer Belle Gibson built a wellness empire off of a lie. She claimed that she had brain cancer, and that she had cured it through healthy eating, exercise, and natural medicine. Yet Belle had never been diagnosed with brain cancer, nor any of the many other cancers she later claimed to have.
Now, Gibson's story gets the Netflix true crime treatment in Apple Cider Vinegar, a limited series starring Kaitlyn Dever (Booksmart, The Last of Us Season 2) as Gibson.
Apple Cider Vinegar's first trailer shows Belle's rise to fame, as well as her competing with fellow wellness influencer Milla Blake (Alycia Debnam-Carey, It's What's Inside) who, unlike Belle, actually has cancer. The two vie for the most attention on social media, with Belle's cookbook and app grating on Milla until she tells someone over the phone, "I want to destroy her."
Bring on the battle of the influencers.
