The last year has been a chastening one for television, with budgets nosediving and streamers pulling back on the mega-spending of yesteryear to offset financial disappointments. But the investment in eye-catching doc series has continued despite the threat of global recession, and the unscripted market now finds itself at a crossroads as it splinters into expensive, premium fare and low-budget, high-volume returners.
“There’s still big appetite from commissioners,” says one prominent UK doc maker, while a German-based factual producer adds, “What’s being sold are very commercial projects – bankable names and directors.”
Dogwoof Head of Sales Cleo Veger believes there’s a bigger divide than ever between the sales of lower-budget festival docs and premium projects. “There’s a drive towards IP and buyers are talking about ‘fewer, bigger swings’,” she adds.

In the Hulu docuseries Planet Sex, cameras follow model/LGBTQ icon Cara Delevingne as she goes on a enlightening and sometimes humorous journey exploring human sexuality around the world. And occasionally, she learns a thing or two about her own.
Here, directors Jessica Chermayeff and Ana Veselic talk about the goal of the show (streaming now on Hulu), some of the places they visited and, ahem, body parts they studied, and what they hope to tackle if Planet Sex returns for a second season.
Deadline What was that first meeting like with Cara?
Jessica Chermayeff I remember it very vividly. Of course it was in the Covid era, so our first meeting was over Zoom. She had just wrapped Carnival Row. She was incredibly excited about this project and was teaming with so many ideas. It was our job to try and capture them and figure out how to put them into action.
