Katie Couric and Stephanie Soechtig to Take on Gun Violence in New Doc

After tackling America’s obesity epidemic in the “sugar is the new tobacco” documentary Fed Up, Katie Couric and director Stephanie Soechtig are reteaming to take a hard look at another nationwide plague: gun violence.

Their new film will focus on gun-control laws and the history of the NRA. As with Fed Up, Couric will produce alongside Regina K. Scully, as well as conduct interviews for and narrate the documentary.

“We hope we can deconstruct this complex issue and give people a better understanding of existing and proposed gun laws and take a closer look at one of the most polarizing issues of our time,” Couric said.
