First up, if you’re a fan of soccer/football, or even just of Hollywood actors, then you’ll have heard of the acquisition of Wrexham A.F.C by none other than A-listers Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. The purchase of the lower league Welsh team has grabbed headlines across the world and in 2022, it got a documentary to boot.
Welcome to Wrexham is 18 episodes full of passion from the Wrexham players, fans and the actors themselves as they learn what it means to own a football club and become part of the family. Season 1 follows the 2021/22 campaign and their battle for a chance to be promoted out of the National League – and most importantly, how the club is fundamentally entwined with the fans and town, in a way that most sports documentaries fail to do. Reynolds has already confirmed a season 2 will be coming, so it’s worth catching up while you can.
