Christina Aguilera’s life story is getting the documentary treatment. On Nov. 10, Time Studios and Roc Nation announced the new project, which will be helmed by director Ting Poo.
“We are beyond excited to extend our creative partnership with Roc Nation through this film. Christina has been such an enduring talent and inimitable entertainer throughout the years. Hers is truly one of the great voices of our time, and this is the perfect moment for her story to be told,” Time Studios Cohead of Documentary Loren Hammonds said in a press release. “We are incredibly honored that she has chosen to work with TIME Studios and Roc Nation to finally share her truth with the world.”
“Christina is a true icon, a beacon of never-ending authenticity. As a young artist, she broke rules and blazed paths for future voices,” Roc Nation’s EVP of TV and Film, Lori York, added. “We’re proud to work with Christina and TIME Studios, bringing to life such an intimate project.”
The documentary will give viewers an inside look into the 41-year-old music icon’s life, spanning from her early days as a Disney star to the present day. It will feature never-before-seen footage from the past 18 months, including Aguilera’s travels, performances, and life milestones. The special will also document her journey in fighting for creative freedom and gender equality over the years.
“Christina Aguilera is one of the most iconic artists of our time, whose music has inspired millions of people around the world. I am truly honored to tell the story of the person behind the music because I know it will equally inspire,” Poo said of Aguilera.
This is Time Studios’s second project with Roc Nation after previously announcing its docuseries with Megan Thee Stallion back in March. A release date for Aguilera’s documentary has not been announced.
