Apple Slates Food Docuseries from Cary Joji Fukunaga

Apple TV+ is set to launch Omnivore, a new culinary docuseries from filmmaker Cary Joji Fukunaga and chef René Redzepi.

Narrated by Redzepi, Omnivore will tell the story of humanity and the planet through eight defining ingredients. It will look at the world through the lens of food and explore how food influences people, politics and beliefs, as well as how it can explain the past and predict the future.

Developed by Redzepi, Fukunaga and James Beard- and Emmy Award-winning writer Matt Goulding, Omnivore will be showrun and executive produced by Emmy-nominated filmmaker Xan Aranda (My Love, Room 104). Redzepi is behind the Copenhagen restaurant Noma, which has been recognized as the World’s Best Restaurant five times.

Omnivore is produced by Film 45, Noma Projects, Parliament of Owls and Endeavor Content, which also serves as the studio.
