STARZ has released a teaser for the upcoming Down In The Valley docuseries. Hosted by P-Valley star Nicco Annan, the non-fiction work takes an in-depth look at Southern culture. Set to air this summer, the six-episode series is described as exploring the fascinating duality of the Deep South from a kaleidoscopic marginalized lens.

According to a press release, Down in the Valley will pull back the curtain on the surprising, yet intriguing people and places that make the Deep South—a place where anything can happen and usually does.

In the series, Annan visits everywhere from strip clubs to sex workshops, rap performances, and ancient hoodoo rituals. Unafraid to tackle taboo, Down In The Valley aims to confront uncomfortable truths, challenge societal norms, and advocate for a more inclusive and enlightened future.

Down In The Valley was greenlit by STARZ in March per Deadline, with Annan and P-Valley creator Katori Hall as executive producers.

“I can’t wait for ya’ll to get a taste of this fiercely unpredictable, deep-dive dance into Southern culture. It’s a black mirror of sorts,” detailed Annan.

“Going through the experience of watching ‘Down in the Valley,’ the audience will immerse and connect with culture beyond the narrow lens of their everyday neighborhoods and see through a mirrored reflection of the forgotten Black American South like never before. Down In The Valley… it is what it is!!!”
