Tiger King Facts That Will Make This Show Seem Even Crazier

Uncut Gems

The guys who made the smash hit movie Uncut Gems are weirdly tied to Eric Goode, the man behind Tiger King. 

The Uncut Gems filmmakers, Josh and Benny Safdie, said on their Twitter account that once upon a time, they worked for the Turtle Conservancy with Eric Goode. They said, in regards to Goode, "Love him and love the show." 

Mini-Series Magic

Universal was very impressed by the show and the podcast. In fact, they've decided to start working on a miniseries based upon it. Kate McKinnon has already been signed to star as possible-husband-killer Carole Baskin, but the rest of the casting is yet to be decided. Hernan Lopez and Marshall Lewy will be co-producing alongside with Kate McKinnon herself.
