A documentary series looking back at the careers of Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista and Christy Turlington premieres on Apple TV+ in September. The Super Models will explore how these four disrupted the ’90s fashion scene.

In addition to announcing the premiere date, Apple’s video streaming service also released a brief teaser trailer Monday.

The Super Models harks back to glory days of Naomi, Cindy, Linda and Christy

The docuseries will start with Campbell, Crawford, Evangelista and Turlington meeting in New York in the 1980s. Working together, the four transcended the role of ordinary fashion model to become household names. In short, they were supermodels. Today, the four have moved on to be activists, philanthropists and businesswomen.

The Super Models offers “unprecedented access” to the four in a series of interviews on how they dominated the modeling world for a decade, and how they’ve lived their lives since then.

“As the fashion industry continues to redefine itself — and women’s roles within it — this is the ultimate story of power and how four women came together to claim it, paving the way for those to follow,” says Apple TV+.

The docuseries is directed by Oscar winner Roger Ross Williams and Larissa Bills.

Coming soon to Apple TV+

The Super Models is set to premiere exclusively on Apple TV+ on Wednesday, September 20, 2023.

The streaming service first unveiled the series way back in 2020 with a different director. It seems the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted production considerably.

When it premieres, the four-part series will join a collection of other celebrity-focused documentaries like the Emmy-nominated Beastie Boys Story as well as Bruce Springsteen’s Letter to You and Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry.

Watching any or all of these comes with a $6.99-per-month subscription to Apple TV+. It’s also available via any tier of the Apple One subscription bundle.
