Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai, who inked a programming agreement with Apple TV+ last year, has unveiled the first line-up of film and TV projects with the streamer, backed by her banner ‘Extracurricular’.

As per PTI, the deal involves dramas, comedies, documentaries, animation, and children’s series and will see the Pakistani activist team up with Oscar winner Adam McKay’s production house on a feature film.

The film, titled ‘Disorientation’, with McKay’s Hyperobject Industries is an adaptation of Elaine Hsieh Chou’s acclaimed book of the same name.

 Billed as a “sharp-edged, celebrated satire”, the story centers on a college student’s revealing dissertation on a young poet. 

The makers are yet to rope in a director for the project.

The team at Extracurricular, Yousafzai said, aims to bring to the table “the voices of women of color, and debut writers and Muslim directors and writers”.

‘Extracurricular‘ will also bring to screen a scripted series based on Asha Lemmie’s coming-of-age novel ‘Fifty Words for Rain’, about a woman’s search for acceptance in post-World War II Japan.

Erika Kennair, president of the production at Extracurricular, said new talent will be cast in both projects.

A feature documentary, revolving around South Korea’s matriarchal Haenyeo society of elderly fisherwomen, is currently in production with A24 attached as the studio.

‘Extracurricular’ is also looking forward to telling a fictionalized or unscripted account of Yousafzai and her family’s experience with the Taliban.

Yousafzai, an activist for girls’ education, miraculously survived a bullet to the head from the militant Taliban in October 2012.
