Beyoncé teams up with HBO for documentary film

Posted by | Ray Cornelius

Back in August, RC reported that Beyoncé was looking to direct a documentary about her life and was shopping the idea around. VIBE  is now reporting that the multi-talented diva has found a home in HBO and she couldn’t be more thrilled about the partnership.

“HBO has a history of pushing every boundary with class and authenticity,” said the 16-time Grammy winner in a statement. “Some of my favorite shows are on HBO, so I am excited that my film will be part of its bold programming. This film was so personal to me; it had to have the right home.”

The film, which will be produced by Beyoncé, will combine her catalog of concert footage along with private behind-the-scenes moments. HBO says, the film “sheds light on her childhood in Houston, with home movies revealing the close bond she built with her family and charts the challenges Beyoncé felt when she decided to manage her career and build her own company, Parkwood Entertainment.”

Congratulations Beyoncé and looking forward to the new project!
