Production wrapped on A Hundred Percent — Nick Kroll's Netflix cast plays wellness gurus who fall apart off camera
Netflix just finished shooting a comedy aimed squarely at the smoothie-brained thought-leader class, and the cast list reads like a group chat you'd pay to be added to.
Cameras have stopped rolling on A Hundred Percent, the Netflix half-hour comedy that wrapped production in Los Angeles last week — and used the occasion to sneak three more names onto an already absurd roster. The premise: a friend group of wellness and self-optimization stars whose books, podcasts, and 4:30 a.m. morning routines promise to perfect your life, while their own lives, off mic, are held together with kinesio tape.
It's satire with a very large, very soft target. The show comes from Nick Kroll and Gabe Liedman — a Big Mouth reunion, and that little cartoon about puberty ran eight seasons and racked up over 415 million views, so Netflix knows exactly what this partnership converts to.
The suspects, alphabetized by cortisol level
- Nick Kroll stars, writes, and executive produces, alongside core four members Sam Richardson, Vanessa Bayer, and Jason Mantzoukas as Konstantine, a guru on the rise.
- Diane Lane recurs as Suzanne, a bestselling author and legend of the self-help world — the final boss of vision boards.
- Zack Fox plays Strick Lennon, a manosphere live-streamer who is Konstantine's fiercest rival and, conveniently, a self-declared ally.
- Griffin Dunne is Konstantine's estranged father, resurfacing precisely when his son gets famous. Fathers love doing that.
- Johnno Wilson plays Alex, Chief Immortality Officer of a male-centered wellness empire — "very wealthy, very healthy, and very lonely," per the actual announcement copy, which is already a better parody of the longevity-bro economy than most 5,000-word profiles.
Why this one might actually land
The idea originated with Max Joseph — yes, the Catfish co-host, a man professionally fluent in the gap between online persona and offline wreckage — who brought it to Kroll. Liedman, whose résumé includes PEN15 and the first season showrun of same, celebrated the greenlight in the appropriate register:
"Picture me doing the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders' 'Thunderstruck' flawlessly right now."
Kroll, for his part, insisted on shooting the whole thing in LA — a minor act of industry heresy in the runaway-production era — telling the Variety Entertainment & Technology Summit that the show is a love letter to the city and its wellness-industrial natives:
"It feels like it's about people who live in Los Angeles."
He's lived there for almost twenty years, which means he has had almost twenty years of adaptogenic small talk to avenge.
Netflix picked up the series in January and slots it into a live-action comedy bench that includes Nobody Wants This, Running Point, and A Man on the Inside. No trailer yet, no premiere date either — the show is currently expected to arrive on Netflix in 2027.
