Netflix to host Pharrell's unscripted docuseries Voices of Fire
Netflix have confirmed they'll host Pharrell's new unscripted docuseries reality show Voices of Fire.
Voices of Fire is a new docuseries reality show that follows Bishop Ezekiel Williams, aka Pharrell's uncle, as he searches for the best gospel singers for a new choir in Pharrell's hometown of Hampton Roads, Virginia.
The Hollywood Reporter notes that Pharrell's uncle, along with his team of "influential gospel leaders", will venture around Hampton Roads to find new talent of all ages, ethnicity and backgrounds.
