Following the series’ first season, which captured the unfiltered lives of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders both on and off the field, Season 2 will follow the team from auditions all the way through NFL season. Emmy Award-winning Greg Whiteley (“Cheer,” “Last Chance U”) returns to direct.
When Season 1 debuted last June, it launched onto Netflix’s Top 10 worldwide chart with 2.3 million views within just four days on the platform. It remained in the Top 10 U.S. TV shows for five weeks straight with moments like the “Thunderstruck”AC/DC number going viral on TikTok. In addition to Kelli Finglass (the Senior Director, DCC) and Judy Trammell (the Head Choreographer, DCC), cheerleader Reece Weaver will be among the returning cheerleaders.
“Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders” is executive produced by Whiteley and Adam Leibowitz for One Potato Productions, Andrew Fried and Dane Lillegard for Boardwalk Pictures and Ross M. Dinerstein and Rebecca Evans for Campfire Studios. Production companies include One Potato Productions and Boardwalk Pictures in association with Campfire Studios.
During an interview with Variety last June, Whiteley discussed his hopes for Season 2. “Our last two or three weeks of filming, we were just starting to hit our stride. I’d love to have more time to see if we can get deeper and deeper with more and more of the team,” Whiteley said.
“Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders” joins Netflix’s continued relationship with the Dallas Cowboys, including the upcoming docuseries “America’s Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys,” which is set to release in August.
