Almost Never follows the lives of two bands, the Wonderland and Girls Here First, following their appearance on the fictional music competition series The Spotlight.[1]
The first series of Almost Never filmed in Belfast from 12 August to 15 November 2018.[2] The series was announced on 18 December 2018.[3] Three months after the debut of the first series, it was announced that cast member Mya-Lecia Naylor had died by misadventure.[4][5][6] For the second series, the part of Mya was not recast; instead, her absence was explained by her having left Girls Here First following the group's disastrous European tour.[7]
The cast was increased in the second series, with the additions of Aston Merrygold[8] and Tyra Richardson,[9] as well as Stephen Rahman-Hughes and Victoria Ekanoye in recurring capacities.[10] On 2 January 2020, it was announced that CBBC has renewed Almost Never for a third series.[11] On 29 May 2020, the Almost Never Instagram account uploaded an open casting call for children aged between 13 and 17 to audition for the third series.[12]
In August 2021, it was announced that Almost Never had been acquired by Disney Channel; the series began airing in the United States on 4 September 2021.[13]
