National Geographic has renewed its acclaimed Disney+ original series “Limitless with Chris Hemsworth” for a second season. The global superstar embarks on a new global quest to unlock the secrets to living a better, longer life.
Season one saw Hemsworth push his physical and mental limits by exploring topics like fasting, stress management, and extreme temperatures. Inspired by the success of the first season, the next installment explores four new epic challenges across Nepal, Italy, Australia, and the UK. This time, Hemsworth delves into everyday obstacles faced by people worldwide: mental agility, pain, burnout, and interpersonal connection.
Oscar-nominated filmmaker Darren Aronofsky joins forces with Chris Hemsworth and Jane Root’s Nutopia for season two. Together, they aim to raise the bar by incorporating intense challenges and cutting-edge science. Hemsworth travels the globe to meet experts, mentors, and spiritual leaders who share their insights into living a fulfilling life.
“Millions of viewers were inspired by the first season,” says Tom McDonald, National Geographic’s executive vice president for Global Factual and Unscripted Content. “Season two promises even more scale, drama, and surprises, pushing both Chris and the audience to new limits.”
