A Tiger King spin-off series focusing on Doc Antle is set to release on Netflix. Titled Tiger King: The Doc Antle Story, the series will uncover the shocking truth behind Doc Antle's eccentric, animal-loving façade.
Directed by Tiger King and Tiger King 2 documentarians Rebecca Chailkin and Eric Goode, Tiger King: The Doc Antle Story will premiere on 10 December 2021. The three-part documentary will dive into Antle's shady past and lifelong misuse of power.
The official synopsis for Tiger King: The Doc Antle Story reads:
"A lifelong showman, Doc Antle has built his various careers on theatrics, attracting a slew of admirers along the way. But beneath the eccentric, animal-loving facade lies a predator far more dangerous than his beloved big cats and a man shadier than any of his Tiger King counterparts. Over three episodes, Tiger King: The Doc Antle Story unpacks the truth about Doc, as witnesses come forward to share their troubling stories of abuse and intimidation that set him at the top of the food chain."
