Get ready for dueling Tonya Harding-Nancy Kerrigan documentaries to mark the 20th anniversary of “The Whack Heard ’Round the World.”

But the ESPN and NBC takes on the infamous Harding-Kerrigan ice-skating rivalry will be told from different points of view.

ESPN’s doc, “Tonya and Nancy” — to air in November — will include an interview with Harding, but not Kerrigan.

NBC’s documentary, narrated by Mary Carillo, will air in February during its coverage of the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, and will include interviews with both skaters, according to the network. The women are not expected to appear on-camera together.

Both docs will cover the headline-grabbing incident in January 1994 when Kerrigan, the favorite going into the Winter Olympics that year in Lillehammer, Norway, was clubbed in the knee with a police baton at a Detroit ice rink.

Video of Kerrigan crumpling to the ground, sobbing, “Why? Why? Why?!” was seen around the world — and the troubled, hardscrabble Harding was immediately suspected of being involved in the attack.

It was later revealed that Harding’s ex-husband, Jeff Gillooly, had hired a pal to whack Kerrigan’s knee, hoping to knock her out of the Olympics.
