Disney has announced that it has delayed the release of the third season of the FX documentary series, “Welcome To Wrexham” by two weeks.

In “Welcome to Wrexham”, which recently won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program, Rob McElhenney (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) and Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool) navigate running the 3rd oldest professional football club in the world. Welcome to Wrexham is a docuseries tracking the dreams and worries of Wrexham, a working-class city in North Wales, UK, as two Hollywood stars guide the future of their historic Club.

In 2020, Rob and Ryan teamed up to purchase the 5th tier Red Dragons in the hopes of turning the Club into an underdog story the whole world could root for. The world took notice and change is afoot. After fifteen painful seasons in the National League, the Club finally achieved promotion back into the English Football League. The stakes have never been higher as League Two brings a new level of intensity and the Club continues to be plagued with injury and setbacks. Dedicated staff and supporters celebrate the city’s return to glory while bracing for the new-found challenges that come with a return to the EFL. Will Wrexham AFC stand up to the challenge and rise again?

Meanwhile, Wrexham AFC’s Women’s Team, fresh off an undefeated season that saw them promoted to the Welsh Adran Premier League, continue to show why women were meant to be footballers. With new players, a new pitch, and a whole new level of competition, can they continue to dominate and make a name for themselves at the top of the League?

For the first time ever in season three, with the team taking their place in the EFL, “Welcome to Wrexham’s” cameras will have unprecedented access on the pitch, bringing viewers inside the locker room and alongside the players, while the action is unfolding in some of the biggest matches Wrexham AFC has ever played.

The third season was originally set to return on the FX linear channel on Thursday, 18th April 2024, but now the series will premiere on Thursday, 2nd May 2024. It will premiere with two episodes, and new episodes will be available to stream the next day on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+. The third season will consist of eight episodes, and a new episode will be available each following Thursday.

The third season will also be coming soon to Star+ in Latin America and Disney+ in other territories, though no release date has yet been announced.
