Tucci in Italy, season 2 (12 May 2026)
It begins on May 12, 2026 with the second season of Tucci in Italya National Geographic series that recounts the actor’s journey among the gastronomic wonders of our country. Stanley Tucci, the synopsis reads, believes that the best way to understand what makes a country unique is through its food. Nowhere is this more true than in Italy, where even the shape of the pasta and the sauce that accompanies it can express identity and clearly distinguish each region. For the second season Tucci returns to visit five new regions, including one he has never talked about before, the Marche, with a rich culinary tradition that has largely escaped the attention of international tourists. In Campania, and its famous capital, Naples, he celebrates a once forgotten grape variety, while in Veneto he immerses himself with gusto in the passionate culinary debate on the origins of tiramisu. Stanley also explores two very different islands: Sardinia, where he investigates the relationship between food and longevity, and Sicily, where multicultural history has left a delicious imprint on his cuisine.
