LONDON — BBC Three has unveiled the trailer for Cara Delevingne “Planet Sex,” its upcoming documentary series co-production with Hulu “exploring the biggest questions in human sexuality,” including porn.

The promotional material for the show describes model and actress Delevingne as “one of the world’s most photographed people and an award-winning LGBTQ+ icon.”
