The teaser is just that—a tease. But it does give us a look at the big titles coming to Netflix later this year and into 2022. And while stuff like “The Puppet Master” and “The Tinder Swindler” have catchy titles and premises, the headline is definitely how Netflix is set to debut “Tiger King 2” before the end of the year.
Yes, the true-crime sensation that carried many people through the early weeks of the pandemic last year, “Tiger King,” is returning with a sequel that is supposed to continue the story of Joe Exotic, Carole Baskin, and the rest of the ridiculous characters that people have been obsessed about for months after its release. The real issue is going to be whether or not any of the information covered in the new “Tiger King 2” will actually be newsworthy, as people have been following these subjects on their own since the original docuseries debuted?
No release date has been set for “Tiger King 2,” but the rest of the docs and series that are teased are all slated to arrive in 2022. You can watch the teaser and read the details about each title below:
