Amy Schumer is teaming with HBO Max on a new documentary feature. 

The docu titled Expecting Amy chronicles Schumer’s journey while pregnant and preparing for a stand-up special. According to the forthcoming streaming service, it will follow the comedienne from the day she found out she was pregnant through the birth of her child.

“Women are warriors, every one of us. And I hope sharing my story brings more awareness to the challenges of pregnancy and childbirth,” said Schumer.

“Amy Schumer is an inspiration and this project is such an honest look at her experience being on the road while preparing for her special,” said Sarah Aubrey, head of original content at HBO Max in a statement. “Her willingness to showcase her immense vulnerability, during the most challenging time in her life, is both empowering and hilarious.”

HBO Max is set to launch in the spring of 2020.
