As the entertainment industry continues to expand each year, with new stars reaching iconic status, none can quite match the achievements of Barbra Streisand. As the first performer to earn an EGOT, she has left an indelible mark on the history of showbiz.
Her extraordinary vocal talent, versatility across theater, film, and music, and her tireless advocacy for women’s visibility in Hollywood are just a few of the reasons she is considered legendary.
While it may be impossible to capture the full scope of her remarkable life and career, Streisand has announced that she will share her story like never before in an upcoming documentary. Check everything you need to know about this exciting project.
Barbra Streisand to share hidden treasures in her career documentary
Several productions have attempted to chronicle the life of the iconic figure, but this one stands apart. Barbra Streisand is personally delving into her extensive archives to share never-before-seen material from her trajectory. In a recent statement, she expressed:
“For years I’ve been thinking about the best way to share the vast amount of content I’ve been safely storing in my vault. These films, photos and music masters — many never seen or heard by the public — hold some of my most cherished memories”.
This announcement comes with the news that Sony Music Vision will oversee the multi-part documentary series. The project promises “hundreds of hours of personal, never-before-seen video, photographs, audio recordings, and personal keepsakes from throughout her acclaimed career”.
Frank Marshall, another EGOT winner known for producing timeless blockbusters such as “Signs,” “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” and “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” will direct this significant title.
Streisand has stated that this will be her official documentary, so expectations for its success are high. While a release date has yet to be announced, insiders suggest it could be anticipated in the latter months of 2025.
