Overview
- The second season of R.I.P. – Roast in Peace is scheduled to arrive on Prime Video on September 18, presented by Stand By Me and hosted by Michela Giraud.
- Each episode stages an ironic mock funeral for one of five featured celebrities — Fedez, Simona Ventura, Alessandro Borghese, Giuseppe Cruciani and Asia Argento — who submit themselves to roast-style insults from comedians.
- Producers kept a key promotional device secret by assigning an 'Inconsolabile' guest to each episode, a close and surprising interlocutor whose identity is withheld to create tension and publicity.
- Cast comments in recent promos and interviews framed the show as both entertainment and therapy, with Fedez joking about pay and probing mortality while asking if ex-wife Chiara Ferragni might appear, and Ventura and Argento describing self-irony and the format's restorative effect.
- The series extends an earlier Italian take on the American roast model and raises questions about tone and boundaries in local comedy, so critics and viewers will likely watch how irreverence and personal disclosure land in Italy's media landscape.
