Reese Witherspoon is heading to Quibi to introduce us to some queens — but not necessarily the kind with crowns. The Oscar-winning actress is set to narrate and appear in the forthcoming docuseries about nature’s phenomenal females in Fierce Queens.

The new series comes from BBC Studios Natural History Unit and Jo Shinner will serve as Executive Producer. Fierce Queens will explore phenomenal female animals: the rebel matriarchs, powerful leaders and dangerous lovers of the natural world. From hyenas to fireflies, meerkats to humpback whales, the documentary series will bring you the most dramatic natural history stories from a fresh female perspective.
