Nocturne review on Apple TV returns with Owen Wilson back as Pryce Cahill in season two, and the setup is lean: a washed-up golf pro watching his brightest protege pull away. Apple TV begins showing the new season on Wednesday 4 November.
Wilson’s turn matters because Pryce is not being written as a simple comeback story. He is enjoying something of a late bloom himself, even as he sees Santi heading toward the professional tour and drawing interest from big-time agents.
Owen Wilson as Pryce Cahill
Wilson plays Pryce as a charming washed-up golf pro, which gives the season its most useful friction. The role asks him to sell a man old enough to know the game, but still stubborn enough to think he has one more run in him.
That setup keeps the story from drifting into pure nostalgia. Pryce is not only looking back at what he lost; he is still trying to prove he belongs in the frame at the same time that Santi starts moving into the market the sport rewards most.
Santi moves ahead
Santi’s rise is the season’s pressure point. The professional tour beckons for him, and big-time agents are sniffing around, which means the balance of power around Pryce is shifting while he is still trying to stay relevant.
That split gives the show a cleaner business-like shape than a standard underdog arc. One player is moving toward the next level, while the other is trying to keep his late-blooming ambition from turning into a last look at the door.
Wednesday 4 November
Wednesday 4 November is the date that matters most here, because that is when Apple TV starts showing season two. For viewers, the practical move is simple: if you want the next chapter of Pryce’s story, that is the day it lands.
The smarter reason to watch is Wilson himself. His performance has to carry both the comedy and the quiet recognition that Pryce may still be a contender in his own right, even if the game is starting to move without him.
