Martin Scorsese , the legendary filmmaker behind Goodfellas, Killers of the Flower Moon and dozens of other critically acclaimed films, is taking on a different kind of project set to air this fall: an eight-part docuseries about Catholic saints for Fox News streaming service.

Martin Scorsese Presents: The Saints is scheduled to run from November through May of next year on Fox Nation, and will feature Scorsese as the host, narrator and executive producer, according to a release from the conservative streamer.

These are stories of eight very different men and women, each of them living through vastly different periods of history and struggling to follow the way of love revealed to them and to us by Jesus words in the gospels, Scorsese, who identifies as a Catholic and once considered becoming a priest , said in a statement.

Having the greatest storyteller tell some of the greatest stories of all time is exactly the kind of exclusive content that is driving FOX Nations success, Jason Klarman, Fox News chief digital and marketing officer, said.
