Netflix is about to get an Obama makeover. 

Higher Ground Productions, President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama's production company in partnership with Netflix, announced Tuesday a list of projects being developed for the streaming service, and they feature an eclectic mix of films, TV series, documentaries and children's programming. ( It's unclear which will actually move forward, or when; the announcement said only that the projects will roll out over the next several years.) 

The series include "Bloom," a period piece set in the post-World War II fashion industry in New York City; "Overlooked," an anthology series adapted from the New York Times column of obituaries for past deaths the paper overlooked; "Fifth Risk," a nonfiction series adapted from "The Big Short" author Michael Lewis's book on government bureaucracy; and "Listen to Your Vegetables and Eat Your Parents," a half-hour preschool series focused on travel and food from Jeremy Konner (“Drunk History”) and Erika Thormahlen.

Higher Ground is also planning movie projects: The company acquired documentary "American Factory" at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, which centers on a Chinese billionaire who opened a factory in Ohio and hired American workers.  The company is also working on a film adaption of author David W. Blight's Pulitzer Prize-winning biography, "Frederick Douglass: Prophet of Freedom."  A third film is another documentary, "Crip Camp," about a camp for disabled teenagers in the 1970s that helped start the disability rights movement. 

“We created Higher Ground to harness the power of storytelling.  That’s why we couldn’t be more excited about these projects,” Barack Obama said in the announcement. “ Touching on issues of race and class, democracy and civil rights, and much more, we believe each of these productions won’t just entertain, but will educate, connect, and inspire us all.” 



“We love this slate because it spans so many different interests and experiences, yet it’s all woven together with stories that are relevant to our daily lives,” Michelle Obama also said in a statement. “ We think there’s something here for everyone – moms and dads, curious kids, and anyone simply looking for an engaging, uplifting watch at the end of a busy day.  We can’t wait to see these projects come to life – and the conversations they’ll generate.”
