Alix Earle is trading her phone camera for a full production crew. On Jan. 21, the mega-popular influencer revealed she will star in a Netflix reality series that tracks her life, family, and famous friends.
The Announcement
Earle broke the news in a joint Instagram post with Netflix. The clip shows her outside Netflix offices on a call with her father, promising, “Dad, it’s gonna be fun!” She strides away in a sheer maroon blouse and glasses, asking, “What’s the worst that can happen?”
The caption read: “From your FYP to your TV: Alix Earle, her family, and friends will star in an unscripted series dropping later this year on Netflix.”
What Viewers Can Expect
Netflix’s release promises the show will zero-in on Earle’s “blended family,” including her influencer sister Ashtin and her tight-knit friend group. The logline: “The series will document the real-time messiness of a young woman in transition.”
Earle told News Of Los Angeles she’s both excited and nervous about surrendering control:
> “I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t a little scary. I’m so used to being in control of what I share and what I keep private, so having cameras around in moments I normally wouldn’t post is definitely an adjustment.”
Confidence and Creative Control
Despite the shift to a traditional network format, Earle trusts her gut. “I know my audience the best,” she said, explaining how she decides what content will resonate.
She credits recent brand deals with sharpening her ability to say “no” when projects don’t feel right. That discernment, she believes, fuels the authenticity her followers love. The numbers back her up:
| Platform | Followers |
|---|---|
| TikTok | 8 million+ |
| 5 million+ |
Family First
Earle calls her relatives the secret to staying grounded amid rapid fame. “My family is everything,” she said. “I love how they support me, give me confidence, but they also keep me humble.”
She revealed her favorite group chat includes every family member, buzzing all day with inside jokes and updates. “We’re all each other’s best friends,” she added, noting the bond has only tightened as her platforms expand.
From Dance Floor to Streaming Queue
This isn’t Earle’s first brush with traditional media. She recently competed on the latest season of Dancing with the Stars, advancing to the finale and learning to perform under strict choreography and live-TV pressure.
The Netflix project marks a deeper leap-months of filmed storylines versus weekly dance routines-yet she views both experiences as steps toward “new, big beginnings.”
What’s Next
Earle hinted that 2026 will unveil “a lot of things that have been in the works for a while.” For now, cameras will trail her every move, capturing unfiltered moments she once reserved for her own edits.
Key Takeaways:
- Alix Earle’s Netflix series launches later this year
- The show highlights her transition from social media self-production to network television
- Family, friends, and the messiness of young adulthood sit at the center of the narrative
- With a combined 13 million followers watching, Earle’s leap from phone screens to TV screens could redefine influencer-led programming
