Taste the Unexpected: Nat Geo Renews “Tucci in Italy” for a Second Season

From Venice to Sicily, Stanley Tucci will delves deeper into Italy in the just-announced second season.

Stanley Tucci will be traveling back to Italy, as Nat Geo has renewed Tucci in Italy for a second season.

What’s Happening:

Deadline reports that a second season of Tucci in Italy is in the pipeline at National Geographic, set for five additional episodes.
The first season, which premiered last month, saw Tucci exploring regions such as Tuscany, Lombardy, Abruzzo, Trentino-Alto Adige and Lazio.
In the second season, he will venture for the first time to Le Marche, while revisiting Sicily, Veneto, Campania and Sardinia.
Throughout his travels, Tucci meets with local chefs, historians, farmers, winemakers, and artisans to uncover the lesser-known culinary rituals that define each region.
The show was initially handed a 10-episode order by Nat Geo, but that turned into five episodes during production.
Tucci had previously visited Italy for CNN’s Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy.
