Re: President Obama and Flotus Michelle on Netflix!
What we know, per sources close to the deal:
• This is a high 8-figure deal
.• The Obamas production company is called "Higher Ground Productions."
• The Obamas want to highlight positive stories about people making a difference, they do not want to use it as a platform to take on President Trump (at least directly).
The Big Picture: The deal is a landmark moment for tech's incursion into Hollywood. It's also a coup for Netflix, adding an unmatchable asset to their content portfolio and an edge over the competition.
Meanwhile, the Obamas get an international media platform to advance their causes.
