Tiger King is the most addictive and disturbing docuseries on Netflix right now. It has nabbed the No. 1 spot on Netflixs Top 10 list this week. Cardi B is watching in disbelief and so are Kim Kardashian West and other celebrities .

Directed by Eric Goode and Rebecca Chaiklin, the seven-part series dives into the big cat industrial complex through the lenses of several big players including animal rights activist Carole Baskin, animal trainer Bhagavan Doc Antle, investor Jeff Lowe, and of course Joe Maldonado-Passage, better known as Joe Exotic . Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness is the full series name and, to avoid spoiling too much for folks who havent yet tuned in, it fully delivers.

People are so obsessed with this real-life story that theres already a fictional adaptation in the works. Emmy-winning Saturday Night Live veteran Kate McKinnon has already reportedly been tapped to star as Baskin in the limited series, which has yet to be picked up by a network. This six-part production is based on Joe Exotic , the second season of the Wondery podcast Over My Dead Body, which is hosted and reported by Robert Moor. Moor wrote the September 2019 piece about Joe Exotic for New York Magazine .

A few roles are going to be hotly contested, so we left a few polls for our readers to weigh in. So, hey, all you cool cats and kittens, take your rightful place alongside HuffPost as a casting agent for a hot new production.
