Apple TV is expanding into true crime with 'Twisted Yoga', a three-part docuseries exposing a sex trafficking ring hidden inside tantric yoga schools. The series premieres globally on March 13, 2026, marking a significant departure from Apple's typical sci-fi and thriller content. While Netflix and Hulu have dominated true crime, Apple TV is now entering this space.

'Twisted Yoga' tells the story of an international sex trafficking network masquerading as yoga studios, following students who sought inner peace but encountered Romanian 'guru' Gregorian Bivolaru. The docuseries is produced by Emmy Award winners Simon Chinn and Jonathan Chinn, alongside Bernadette Higgins, and directed by Rowan Deacon, known for 'Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story'.

The series represents a strategic shift for Apple TV as it competes more directly with established streaming platforms. By tackling this disturbing real-world story, Apple is positioning itself to capture audiences interested in investigative journalism and true crime narratives. The March 2026 premiere date gives the streaming service a high-profile launch for this new content direction.
