The Australian series True Story With Hamish & Andy is heading to NBC. 

Ed Helms and Randall Park will co-host the new scripted/unscripted series retitled True Story. 

In True Story, everyday Americans will sit down with Helms and Park to share their extraordinary true stories for the first time, followed by re-enactments of the stories unfold by a star-studded cast. 

“I can’t wait to bring True Story to American audiences with my buddy Randall Park,” Helms said. “It’s an incredibly warm, hilarious and kind-spirited show that celebrates the lost art of laughing at ourselves … with a little help from epic re-enactments.”

Park added: “I’m so excited to be part of a show that combines three of my favorite things: great stories from real people, my pal Ed Helms and couches.”

True Story is executive produced by Helms, Tim Bartley, Hamish Blake, Andy Lee, Ryan Shelton, Mike Falbo and Nicolle Yaron.
