DESCRIPTION:
(from National Geographic's press release, December 2023) Today, National Geographic announced the greenlight of TUCCI - THE HEART OF ITALY (working title). The new 10-part docuseries follows the Emmy(R)- and Golden Globe(R)-winning actor across the country as he unlocks the distinct flavors that define each region and discovers the rich versatility of Italy through those he meets along the journey. The series is produced by BBC Studios', Specialist Factual Productions, alongside Tucci's Salt Productions. Production will begin in January 2024. Each region of Italy proudly proclaims individuality, but what binds the country together is the passion that all Italians have for good food. Tucci guides viewers to discover the real Italy - with all its complexities - through its cuisine. Across 10 episodes, he'll travel to 10 regions, including Sicily, Trentino-Alto Adige, Veneto, Marche and Lazio. As Tucci travels to each corner of the country, he seeks out the essence of each region and its people through the food they eat. In each episode, Tucci ventures off the beaten track to meet fascinating people from all walks of life who will share their stories and the extraordinary dishes that make Italian food the world's most loved cuisine. |
