Academy Award-winner Kevin MacDonald and Emmy-nominated producer Lisa Erspamer are teaming up once again to produce Oprah Winfrey’s biographical documentary for Apple TV+, Deadline is reporting.
MacDonald and Erspamer have also produced Whitney Houston’s biographical documentary Whitney for Apple TV+.
The new doc will chronicle 25 years of American history through the lens of one show and one woman “who rose from humble roots to become a globally famous talk show host, producer, actress and philanthropist.”
Winfrey and Erspamer also have a long-standing relationship from when the latter produced The Oprah Winfrey Show for a decade between 1999 and 2009.
Apple is already working on Winfrey’s Harpo after the two companies inked a multi-year deal back in 2018, which includes The Oprah Conversation, Oprah’s Book Club, and Oprah Talks COVID-19.
