Clay Aiken may not have won his bid for a seat in the House of Representatives, but fans of the former American Idol runner-up will be able to go behind the scenes of Aiken’s congressional run thanks to a new miniseries from Esquire.

Esquire Network has announced a new four-hour docuseries which will document Aiken’s failed attempt to earn a seat in the House as a the Democratic representative for the 2nd District in North Carolina – which Republican incumbent Congresswoman Renee Ellmers ended up winning.

The cable network revealed on Tuesday that camera crews had been traveling with Aiken over the past few months, filming the American Idol alum’s campaign trail. The four hour series- which will follow Aiken’s entire campaign trail from his candidacy announcement to local debates, to election night- has been shot by Oscar winning director Simon Chinn and Emmy winning director Johnathan Chinn.

For Matt Hanna, Head of Original Programming for Esquire Network, the new docuseries will bring viewers a “raw and honest” look into the world of American politics:

“Ultimately, this series is a raw and honest look at American politics through an incredibly unique and compelling candidate. The opportunity to work with amazing documentarians Simon and Jonathan Chinn, gave Esquire Network the perfect opportunity to explore politics and its intersection with celebrity.”

The untitled series is currently aiming for an early 2015 premiere.
