Louis Theroux develops Adolescence-inspired online misogyny documentary

Louis Theroux is developing a new documentary through his production company Mindhouse that explores the rise of online misogyny and its impact on young men. The project is a factual companion and spin-off to the critically acclaimed Netflix drama Adolescence, which follows a teenager arrested for the murder of a female classmate. Theroux's documentary will investigate the influence of controversial figures like Andrew Tate and UK vlogger HSTikkyTokky, known for their misogynistic behavior and social media bans. Filming is currently underway, and the documentary is expected to premiere on Netflix next year. The series aims to shed light on the societal pressures and radicalization young men face online, continuing the conversation sparked by Adolescence. Theroux himself has chosen to lead this project, adding significant weight to the subject matter.
