Country music superstar Willie Nelson will be the subject of a docuseries from filmmakers Thom Zimny and Oren Moverman
The project, titled, is in production. It will delve into the Red Headed Stranger’s life and long career as a singer and songwriter. Nelson is actively participating in the production and has allowed Zimny — a frequent collaborator with another music legend, Bruce Springsteen — and Moverman access to his archives.
“Words like ‘honored,’ ‘excited’ and ‘humbled’ don’t come close to describing the way we feel about being entrusted with telling Willie’s story. And what a story it is!” Zimny and Moverman said in a statement. “We are celebrating the music, the career, the long road, the family, friends, and history.
Nelson’s long-time manager, Mark Rothbaum, developed the series along with Keith Wortman, founder of Blackbird Presents — which produces the Outlaw Music Festival Tour along with Nelson and has produced two TV specials with the singer. Blackbird Presents and Moveman’s Sight Unseen Pictures are producing“Telling Willie’s story has been a lifelong dream of ours, and we feel privileged to realize this dream with Thom, Oren and Sight Unseen,” Rothbaum and Wortman said.
Wortman, Mark Rothbaum, Annie Nelson, Sight Unseen’s Julia Lebedev and Eddie Vaisman, and Leonid Lebedev are executive producing.
