Gangster

Livvy Haydock

Booking Overview

This is a serialized investigative true-crime documentary about international cocaine trafficking, organized crime, law enforcement investigations, and the human cost of addiction, using interviews with former investigators, insiders, and people directly affected by the case. Credible pitches would include former customs or law-enforcement officials, organized-crime researchers, investigative journalists, and addiction or family-impact experts with direct subject-matter relevance; booking difficulty is medium because the series favors authoritative, case-connected voices rather than broad lifestyle guests.
