More about The Rehearsal season 2
While the previous season saw Nathan Fielder building complex simulations to help people get ready for difficult life situations, The Rehearsal season 2 turns its attention to more general societal concerns, including aviation safety.
Fielder looks at actual cases when co-pilots are reluctant to confront captains, which leads to catastrophes. To investigate this, he builds intricate simulations, such as a model of Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport, to replicate situations that look at pilot relationships and the difficulties of defying.
Fake Angela, played by Anna Lamadrid, is a stand-in in one of Nathan's simulations, especially ones that deal with parenting and family issues. The actor Alexander Leiss portrays Fake Nathan, who is recruited to play Fielder during a rehearsal that examines his own actions and effects.
Several young actors, varying in age, portray Adam, Fielder's fictitious son: Sawyer J. Bell (age 3), Lennon O'Flynn and Remy Taylor (age 6), and Joshua James Benard (age 15). These parts change depending on how complex the rehearsals are and they're essential to the show's main idea.
The series features an ensemble of supporting cast, some of whom are listed as follows:
- Eric Barron as First Air First Officer
- Jennifer Khoe as Fake Producer
- Gigi Burgdorf as Fake Tricia
- K. Todd Freeman as Fake Kor
- Tony Nation as Fake Trivia Host
- John Churchill as Corporate Airlines Captain
