‘Where Is Wendy Williams?’ EPs On Finding The Ethical Line And Using Documentary As A “Catalyst For Change” – Contenders TV: Doc + Unscripted
In a panel interview, the 'Where Is Wendy Williams?' exec producers talk about finding the ethical line and using their documentary as a "catalyst for change.”
“It really wasn’t until we got into filming and saw the reality of the situation that we were aware that there was something deeper and, ultimately, disturbing, going on in Wendy’s life,” executive producer Mark Ford said during the series’ panel at Deadline’s Contenders TV: Documentary + Unscripted event. A clip shown during the panel details a conversation between Williams and her niece Alex, who is trying to explain to her aunt that there may be people on her team trying to take advantage of her. “I really do hope that this film becomes a catalyst for change, whether it’s for Wendy or for others, or at least to pull back the curtain and try to understand more how the system works and doesn’t and how it can impact thousands of people,” Hanson said.
