Legendary singer Dolly Parton will be co-producing an eight-episode anthology series for Netflix based on her music.
Parton, known for hit songs like "I will always love you", "Jolene" and "Here you come again", will also serve as singer and songwriter for the show.
"As a songwriter, I have always enjoyed telling stories through my music," Parton said in a statement to variety.com.
"I am thrilled to be bringing some of my favourite songs to life with Netflix. We hope our show will inspire and entertain families and folks of all generations, and I want to thank the good folks at Netflix and Warner Bros TV for their incredible support," she added.
The project will be produced by Parton's Dixie Pixie Productions and Sam Haskell's Magnolia Hill Entertainment in association with Warner Bros Television.
A premiere date is yet to be announced.
