Netflix may be on the verge of its biggest coup yet - the Obamas.

Former president, Barack Obama, is reportedly planning to produce a series of shows with the streaming service alongside his wife, Michelle.

While details surrounding the projects are yet to be confirmed, The New York Times reports that they would provide the couple with a platform to tell “inspirational stories” to Netflix's millions of global subscribers.

One such show is expected to see President Obama moderate conversations regarding his presidency with Michelle focusing on matters she addressed during her tenure as First Lady.

The Times reports that the shows would not see them address Donald Trump's presidency, and they may even stay behind the camera as producers.

Obama - who is said to be friends with CEO Reed Hastings - made his Netflix debut after becoming the first person to be interviewed by David Letterman for new series My Next Next Guest Needs no Introduction.

Netflix has declined to comment on the reports.
