A documentary series from "The Daily Show" host Trevor Noah's Day Zero Productions, TIME Studios, Sugar23, and P&G Studios is being picked up by MSNBC films.
"The Tipping Point" series is about a shift in American culture and the effects of the 2020 election on voting rights, LGBTQ+ rights, political polarization, and the global refugee crisis.
"I always felt MSNBC would be the perfect fit for this unique series," executive producer Noah said in a statement, per The Hollywood Reporter.
"They're not afraid to take a deeper dive beyond the headlines to look at the stories in a more nuanced and holistic way, and that is what I wanted for this series, a home that would allow us to take risks, dig deep and tell meaningful stories that can help inform and inspire."
Noah's documentary series will air on MSNBC and stream on Peacock this fall. Each film comes from directors and storytellers like Oscar-nominated Orlando Von Einsiedel, Sundance alum Sam Feder and Emmy-Award winning Daresha Kyi.
"We are thrilled to be the home for this exciting series that brings Trevor's incredible vision to life," Rashida Jones, president of MSNBC, who also executive produces, said in a statement.
"This partnership between MSNBC Films and the remarkable teams at Day Zero, TIME Studios, and Sugar 23 allows us to examine important moments in our history and explore a path forward."
