- Questlove is developing "The Next Move," a talk show based on his celebrity game nights, with North Road Company and his Two One Five Entertainment banner, featuring himself and three guests playing games from Uno to Jenga.
- "The Next Move" debuts on Questlove's new digital channel "Do You Want More" — the first title in a forthcoming slate of digital content from the production company Questlove co-founded with Black Thought.
- The first season was developed in collaboration with Amazon, though the guest lineup remains unannounced; past Questlove game nights have included Taylor Swift, Jason Sudeikis, Lupita Nyong'o, Megan Thee Stallion, Quinta Brunson, and J.J. Abrams.
- Two One Five co-produces the series alongside Connor Schell's Full Day, a division of Words + Pictures, as Questlove's latest unscripted media endeavor beyond his recent documentary work on Earth, Wind & Fire and SNL Music.
Why it matters: Questlove — already a prolific documentarian with Oscar-winning "Summer of Soul" and recent SNL and Sly Stone films — is using Amazon's infrastructure to launch a self-owned digital channel, giving him direct audience ownership rather than relying solely on traditional networks or streaming platforms.
