Chris Pratt is saddling up for an unlikely buddy comedy: a series of comedy shorts focused on American history, co-starring presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin.

The series comes from digital and creative media studio ATTN: with Emmy winner Alex Gregory (“Veep,” “White House Plumbers”) serving as as producer. The shorts will follow Pratt as he attempts to share his passion for American history, only to discover that his grasp of the facts may not be quite as strong as his enthusiasm. Fortunately, Goodwin serves as executive producer, editorial advisor, and on-screen authority, helping keep the lessons on track.
