Titled “House of Kardashian,” the three part docuseries delves into the lives and legacies of Kris Jenner and her brood by speaking to some of the people closest to them — including Jenner’s ex-spouse Caitlyn Jenner and longtime family friend Joe Francis (of “Girls Gone Wild” fame) – as well as getting access to previously unseen archival footage of the family before they became famous.

Unlike their self-titled series “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” and its successor “The Kardashians,” none of the family had any editorial control over the documentary, which promises to be explosive.

In the trailer, Caitlyn Jenner says that Kim Kardashian calculated her fame from the beginning while Francis tells the camera: “The sex tape was a means to an end. It was to create a controversy.”

“As a filmmaker, you might question what is left to reveal about the Kardashian-Jenners — arguably one of the most famously, overexposed families in Hollywood,” Clare Cameron, the show’s executive producer, told Variety last month. “Through our interviews with those who have been in the family’s orbit since the beginning, we uncover their personal motivations, and explore how a changing culture allowed their influence on women around the world to thrive.”

Cameron exec produced the documentary alongside 72 Films creative director John Douglas. The series was commissioned by Sky’s director of documentaries Poppy Dixon and commissioning editor Hayley Reynolds on behalf of Sky’s managing director for content Zai Bennett.
