Will & Harper

Release date: September 27

Directed by Josh Greenbaum, this emotional documentary explores the friendship between Will Ferrell and former Saturday Night Live head writer Harper Steele.

She says in the trailer: "I love this country so much, I just don't know if it loves me back right now." You'll definitely need tissues for this one, I've already cried!

Mr. McMahon

Release date: September 25

Elsewhere, Tiger King filmmaker Chris Smith told Tudum that he's "pulled back the curtain to reveal the true Vince McMahon obscured beneath the persona he presented to the world" in this docuseries. Across the six-part series, there are more than 200 hours of interviews with McMahon himself (prior to his resignation), as well as his family members, business associates, and some of the most iconic names in wrestling history, alongside the journalists who uncovered McMahon's allegations. While this will no doubt be a tough watch, it feels like an important one.
