"'My Kind of Country' will revolutionize the music competition genre with a fresh, new documentary sensibility," Apple TV+ said in a press release.

Witherspoon added that this show resonated with her personally, having grown up in Nashville, Tennessee.
"Country music has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember," Witherspoon tweeted. "The history of songwriting and recording, the artistry of matching lyrics and chords, the true expression of what is happening to humanity right now."
A release date for "My Kind of Country" has not been announced, but it will premiere on Apple TV+.
