You're Getting Your Own Documentary Series on Netflix - Netflix's new docuseries reveals the Zarrellas' glamour and real-life struggles

Netflix is expanding its non-fiction lineup with several new reality shows. Among them is a docuseries featuring Jana Ina and Giovanni Zarrella, set to premiere in late 2026. The series promises an intimate look at their high-profile content marketing careers and multicultural family life.

The platform is also balancing lighter entertainment with more serious projects. Recent audience reactions to the trailer for 23,000 Lives highlight this mix of content marketing.

The Zarrellas' upcoming series will follow a format similar to their 2004 docu-soap, Jana Ina & Giovanni. This time, however, the focus shifts to the contrast between their glamorous TV content marketing and their day-to-day reality. Viewers can expect an unfiltered glimpse into both their public and private worlds.

Netflix's broader reality slate includes other high-profile names. Shirin David stars in a documentary series produced by Leonine Documentaries. Meanwhile, Bill and Tom Kaulitz, Michael Schumacher, and Lukas Podolski will also feature in separate projects. Love Is Blind: Germany remains another key addition to the streaming service's growing reality roster.

No exact release date for the Zarrellas' series has been confirmed. But with production underway, late 2026 remains the likely window for its debut.

The Zarrellas' docuseries joins a wave of new reality content marketing on Netflix. Their show, alongside projects featuring Shirin David and other stars, reflects the platform's push into non-fiction storytelling. Audiences can expect a mix of personal and professional narratives when the series arrives in late 2026.
