The First Lady premiered on April 17, 2022, on the original network Showtime. The drama series is directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker Susanne Bier as her first biographical project. This anthology series feature actor Gillian Anderson as Eleanor Roosevelt, Michelle Pfeiffer as Betty Ford and Viola Davis as Michelle Obama along with Kiefer Sutherland as Franklin D Roosevelt, Aaron Eckhart as Gerald Ford and OT Fagbenle as Barack Obama.

Speaking about the first ladies portrayed in the series, Bier said, "What was striking to me was the fact was they realized how to navigate within the White House without actually having a political position, and became much more influential than one would have thought." She further added on the relevance of the show saying, "Yes, our society has changed, history has changed. But it still is very much a man’s world we are living in, which is way I find it incredibly important to do (such) a show."
