Netflix announces PAPARAZZI KING: the docu series coming to Netflix on January 9th
December 17th 2025 - Communication genius or shameless manipulator? Victim or perpetrator? "Paparazzi King" is a five-episode docuseries - coming only on Netflix on January 9th - that spans the Berlusconi era, the rise of social media, and the contradictions of Italian justice, with an unfiltered story that is not intended to be a biography of the "King of Paparazzi," but a portrait of a country that, from the 1990s to today, has ceased to distinguish between reality and reality TV.
Son of Vittorio Corona, a visionary journalist who shaped Italian publishing in the 1980s, Fabrizio grew up obsessed with proving himself worthy. When his father was marginalized by the system, his son decided to eat away at that same system from within, turning gossip into a weapon of power and identifying money as the only measure of affection and success. Where Vittorio searched for the truth, Fabrizio found business, and alongside Lele Mora, Corona built an empire based on selling other people's lives.
Up until the Vallettopoli investigation: the extortion charge transformed the golden boy into a public enemy, but at the same time marked the definitive birth of his persona, revealing a man capable of transforming his existence into a desperately vivid show, a life studded with surreal characters and tragicomic situations, in which reality and fiction often blurred. So begins a media and legal war fought with front-page headlines and fiery statements destined to polarize and divide Italian public opinion.
"Paparazzi King" is a Bloom Media House production, directed by Massimo Cappello, written by Marzia Maniscalco and Massimo Cappello, art director Davide Molla, produced by Alessandro Casati, Marco Chiappa, and Nicola Quarta.
