Here is an official synopsis of the second season:

"The Rehearsal follows one man’s journey to reduce the uncertainties of everyday life. With a construction crew, a legion of actors, and seemingly unlimited resources, Fielder helps ordinary people prepare for life’s biggest moments by ‘rehearsing’ them in carefully crafted simulations of his own design.

"In season two, the urgency of Fielder’s project grows as he decides to put his resources toward an issue that affects us all."

Fielder is a familiar face in Hollywood having been spotted in projects like The Curse, Nathan for You, The Disaster Artist and The League.
