Posted by Jenniffer Sheldon on Monday, July 15, 2024

Ahead of the Season 2 finale, FX has ordered a third season of “Welcome to Wrexham.” The forthcoming installment is scheduled for a spring 2024 premiere.

Starring and executive produced by Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds, the docuseries chronicles the two stars’ efforts to return Wrexham AFC, one of the oldest and most storied football teams in history, to glory.

“The wild global success of ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ is a testament to the courage and vision of Rob and Ryan, the dogged spirit of the Red Dragons, and the hope and devotion of the people of Wrexham,” said Nick Grad, president of FX Entertainment. “It’s a story that has only begun to be told and one that everyone can continue to follow along with in the third season. Our thanks to the creative team who captured these thrilling moments and everyone who achieved what seemed impossible only a short time ago.”
