Tyra Banks to Participate in Netflix's 'America's Next Top Model' Documentary Series

Tyra Banks has agreed to be interviewed on camera for an upcoming multi-episode Netflix documentary series about the history of "America's Next Top Model" (ANTM). This marks a notable development as Banks rarely participates in longer-form projects about the show she created and hosted.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Banks has already sat down for an interview for the docuseries, which will examine the cultural impact of the modeling competition show that ran for 24 seasons. The Netflix project comes amid ongoing public reevaluation of the series and online criticism regarding various controversies from its past.

The documentary is being produced by EverWonder Studio and is expected to feature other key ANTM personalities. Banks was recently photographed in an outfit reminiscent of the show's iconic photo shoots, further connecting her to the legacy of the series that defined much of her career.

This documentary represents a significant opportunity for Banks to address the show's complex legacy and respond to criticisms that have emerged in recent years about the program's approach and content.
