Netflix has greenlit an untitled docuseries starring Nick Cannon that will document his life as he raises 12 children with six different women, set to premiere in winter 2026.

The streamer announced the project today during its upfront presentation to advertisers in New York. The series will explore how Cannon balances a busy television career with the demands of his sprawling family.

The official logline sets the stakes plainly: "Superstar Nick Cannon is ready to pull back the curtain on the complete chaos, headline-making drama, and heartfelt moments that come with raising twelve kids with six different moms, all while managing his booming career and complicated personal life," according to Variety.

The logline also promises the show will run "from million-dollar meetings to midnight diaper runs" and describes the tone as "Kardashian-level glam meets relatable, messy modern parenting."

Cannon's children include twins Moroccan and Monroe with ex-wife Mariah Carey; Golden Sagon, Rise Messiah, and Powerful Queen with Brittany Bell; and twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir and daughter Beautiful Zeppelin with Abby De La Rosa.

The project, which at one point carried the working title Cannon's House of Cards, comes from Velvet Hammer Media and Pantheon Media Group, with executive producers Rebecca Quinn, Jen O'Connell, Trifari Williams, Rob Ford, Steve Michaels, and Simon Thomas.

Also announced at today's Netflix upfronts, Season 3 of Quarterbacks returns July 14, following Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels, Baker Mayfield, Cam Ward, and Joe Flacco across the 2025 NFL season.
