A24 Producing Two-Part Steve Martin Doc for Apple TV+

12 AUGUST 2022 - News of a documentary from Apple TV+ for which I cannot wait - except for the part where I have to. The Hollywood Reporter says A24 is working on a two-part feature documentary on the life of actor/comedian/writer/musician Steve Martin - to be released by Apple TV+. Morgan Neville is set to direct. You may not know his name, but you’ve probably heard of his work. He helmed the Oscar-winning documentary 20 Feet From Stardom as well as the Mr. Rogers documentary Won’t You Be My Neighbor?

The Hollywood Reporter says the film will trace Martin’s life “from his roots in stand-up comedy through today.” No word on a production schedule or release date for the double-feature. I find that really annoying, because - personally - I can’t wait.
