This is some exciting news! NBC has issued a straight-to-series order for a scripted project about Joe Exotic, Carole Baskin and all the other exotic personalities from the world of the Tiger King.

The series will air as a cross-platform venture on NBC, USA Network and streamer Peacock.

Universal Content Productionsโ€™ limited series Joe Exotic will follow wild cat enthusiast Baskin, a major player in Netflixโ€™s Tiger King docuseries earlier this year, as she learns that Joe โ€œExoticโ€ Schreibvogel is breeding and using his animals for profit.

Carole Baskin

โ€œShe sets out to shut down his venture, inciting a quickly escalating rivalry,โ€ per the official logline. โ€œBut Carole has a checkered past of her own and when the claws come out, Joe will stop at nothing to expose what he sees as her hypocrisy. The results prove dangerous.โ€

As previously reported, Kate McKinnon will play Baskin. No one has been cast as of yet in the role of Joe Exotic.
