Everything We Know About The New Hillary Clinton Documentary On Hulu

Feminist history fans, please calm yourselves, because Hulu has announced that Hillary Clinton is going to be the subject of a brand new documentary, dropping later this year. The program is going to start with her childhood and trace her career until her run for US president.

The trailer has Hillary's voice saying, 'I provoke strong opinions. There's a lot to talk about.' Then, as the footage shows her as a child she says, 'I didn't grow up dreaming of a career in politics, but much to my surprise was elected president of the Young Republicans.'

She goes on: 'I got into law school, and I thought that I wanted to make a difference to people's lives'.

The trailer also shows some of the sexism that Rodham Clinton has come up against in her career, though only a fraction of it, otherwise it would be about 17 hours long. The burning effigies of her, the men's voices calling her political career 'radical feminism' - it's quite the reminder that while we might not have got sexism into lick, things were a whole lot worse when HRC started out, and comments about her gender were considered fair game.

Even more exciting for any kind of politics nerd, Obama then pops up, discussing the fact that people were surprised when he appointed HRC as Secretary of State.

It's not clear how much of the show will be based on Clinton's 2017 memoir, What Happened, but it seems that it will explore her life from childhood up until the moment that she found she had lost the US presidential election.

The show will debut on Hulu on March 6. It's not clear whether it will drop in the UK at the same time. We can only hope.
