Angel Reese Embarks on Latest Hollywood Adventure as 'Trainer Barbie' in Netflix Series "The Hunting Wives"
Sky forward Angel Reese is proving her acting chops once again, this time joining the cast of the second season of the popular Netflix series "The Hunting Wives". The two-time WNBA All-Star will play a co-starring role as "Trainer Barbie", bringing her unique blend of athleticism and charm to the show.
Reese's involvement was first hinted at when she tweeted "Trainer Barbie" alongside several entertainment-related emojis, sparking speculation among fans. Her excitement on social media was further fueled by behind-the-scenes photos shared on her Instagram story, giving a glimpse into the world of the show.
Interestingly, Reese may have inadvertently secured her role after reaching out to the show's creator, Rebecca Cutter, in August 2025. The WNBA star wrote "Just let me know if you need me for Season [Two]", seemingly inviting herself into the project.
The second season of "The Hunting Wives" is currently in production, with stars Brittany Snow and Malin Akerman returning to their roles alongside Reese's new character. A premiere date has yet to be announced, but fans are eagerly anticipating another summer launch from Netflix.
Reese's latest acting gig marks her second major role in a film, following her cameo appearance in the thriller "A House of Dynamite" earlier this year. She will also make appearances in the upcoming Stephen Curry-produced animated movie "GOAT", alongside Las Vegas Aces star A'ja Wilson. With each new project, Reese is solidifying her position as a rising star in Hollywood.
