First it was the Beckhams, then it was the Furys, now Katie Price has revealed her life story is going to be the next big budget hit for Netflix.
The former glamour model, 46, has disclosed she will be working with the streaming giant on her own series.
She told MailOnline: 'It's massive. I'm doing my life story for Netflix. I am actually doing a three-parter about my life for Netflix.'
It will be a welcome boost to Price's bank balance who was declared bankrupt for the second time earlier this year over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05.
In February, a court also ordered her to forfeit 40 per cent of her income from the adult subscription website OnlyFans for the next three years following a separate dispute over unpaid debt.

The plastic surgery addict, who this month had her 17th boob job, has quite the life story for producers to get their teeth into.
An only child who grew up in East Sussex, Price began modeling for tabloid newspapers aged 18.
After a brief relationship with footballer Dwayne Yorke, at 21 she gave birth to Harvey, a disabled boy with complex needs. Yorke has played no part in his upbringing.
But national fame came after a stint on the reality TV show I'm a Celebrity, as the nation watched her whirlwind romance with pop singer Peter Andre, who she would later marry and share two children with.
After the breakdown of her first marriage, Price's personal life has been unstable with two further nuptials ending in divorce.
But her foibles - from drug taking to driving offences - have only endeared her to fans who have made her one of the UK's best-selling authors.
The mother-of-five also said that the streaming giant had signed up a high profile producer-director to work with her on the project, but declined to name him.
When David Beckham partnered with Netflix on a documentary about his life story and marriage to Victoria Beckham, Oscar-winning director Fisher Stevens produced the four-part series.
The ratings hit was this week nominated for an Emmy award.
Another surprise British hit for Netflix was At Home With the Furys, which followed heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury and his extended family in a reality TV format.
A Netflix spokesperson said: 'Netflix is not doing a documentary with Katie Price.'

It comes after Katie confessed that she took cocaine and had alcohol before her horror car crash in 2021, but defended her actions as being motivated by a desire to see her daughter, Princess.
The star flipped her BMW onto its side at about 6.20am on September 28, on a country road near her West Sussex home.
Following the accident, she tested positive for alcohol and cocaine, and admitted drink-driving while disqualified and driving without insurance.
Opening up about the incident in her new autobiography, This Is Me, the mother-of-five admitted that she'd 'had some friends round for a few hours' before the crash.
In quotes obtained by The Sun, Katie wrote: 'One of them had some coke on them and, yes, I had a little bit of it, probably a couple of lines, it wasn't even a lot. I had some alcohol too.'
But she insisted that she had not been 'thinking straight' at the time, because her daughter Princess, 17, - who she shares with ex-husband Peter Andre - had called her 'upset'.
She recalled: 'I could tell she was upset so I asked her what was wrong. My daughter was ringing to tell me she wasn't allowed to see me and my heart just broke.'
She said she 'wasn't thinking straight', before adding: 'I needed to go right that minute and I didn't care that it was 2am. I didn't care about anything anymore.'
Katie managed to avoid jailtime for the accident, instead being handed a 16-week suspended jail sentence and 100 hours community service.
She was also slapped with a two-year driving ban, after agreeing to take a drink-drive rehabilitation course, which reduced the ban by 24 weeks.
Katie previously told MailOnline that her mental health was at rock bottom at the time of the crash, explaining: 'I live in the countryside, I had no outlet, I needed to talk to someone and that night I let myself down.'
'I am not justifying anything, there was a reason why I got in the car and why my head was like that.
'Unfortunately, I did get into that place. I would never get into that place again. It happened and it's real but I have learnt.'
Katie has had a long history of issues with the law related to her time on the road, having already committed 11 driving offences in the previous fifteen years.
The reality star has also been on the end of repeated driving bans over the years.
In 2019, she was given a three-month ban for driving while disqualified in January of that year.

That October, Katie was banned from driving for a further 18 months for failing to inform police who was behind the wheel of her pink Range Rover during a crash in South East London.
In 2018, she landed a six-month ban for speeding after totting up 12 penalty points on her licence.
Five years earlier, she was disqualified from driving for a year for failing to respond to two speeding tickets.
And in 2010, Katie was banned from driving for six months after running 83mph in a 70mph zone in West Sussex.
