The upcoming Peacock documentary Stormy will focus on the Stormy Daniels–Donald Trump scandal that made headlines in 2018. However, this project will narrate this story from Daniels’ perspective. It will be released on March 18, 2024, on the OTT platform.
According to IMDb, the synopsis of the upcoming documentary reads, “Behind the curtain with Stormy Daniels as she shares her story. The film follows her reinventing herself while grappling with events from 5 years earlier that made her an unlikely American icon.”
Stormy Daniels is a 44-year-old American adult film actress who had an affair with former U.S. President Donald Trump. According to The Hollywood Reporter, in 2018, The Wall Street Journal reported Trump’s 2006 affair with Stormy. Prior to that, in 2016, the actress allegedly received $130,000 to keep their past relationship a secret. However, Donald Trump did not admit to the affair.
In the new trailer of the upcoming project, Peacock revealed several never-before-seen footage of Daniels’ unpredictable life. The clip also shows Daniels reacting in real-time to discovering her celebrity lawyer, Michael Avenatti, allegedly forging her signature.
