A documentary about Taylor Swift is officially in the works at Channel 4. Deadline reports that the British broadcaster has confirmed a two-part series that will look at Swift's rise to global superstardom. The project is currently titled Taylor.
Channel 4 said that the series will examine how Swift became not just the biggest name in music, but a cultural force. Her career spans two decades and includes a long list of reinventions, from country starlet to global pop icon-with an equally devoted fanbase growing alongside her.
The documentary will feature commentary from industry insiders, journalists and fans. Channel 4 also promises 'rare archive' material, offering a closer look at Swift's evolution, both professionally and personally, over the years.
'She came into the spotlight as a teenager with big ambitions, and now she's one of the most talked-about women in the world. This series tracks how she built a massive community around her-and how she's managed the intense public attention that's come with it,' reads a statement from the network.
Swift, now a billionaire largely through music alone, has dominated headlines over the past few years. Her Eras Tour broke records across continents, while her Netflix documentary Miss Americana gave fans a glimpse of the person behind the stadium shows. This latest series looks to go even further.
Director Guy King said in a statement, 'Taylor Swift is an unprecedentedly powerful 21st-century voice for women and young people. Under the microscope of social media since the earliest days of MySpace and Tumblr, she came of age during a new feminist wave. With her fame came controversy, which she so skilfully wrestled to the floor. We're excited to tell her story,' reported Deadline.
The series is being produced by Sandpaper Films, the company behind A Deadly American Marriage. King, known for The Fall and Bombing Brighton, is directing. Jessica Brady serves as producer, with Lina Caicedo handling archive footage. Susannah Price and Henry Singer are executive producers, and Martin Thompson, a BAFTA winner, is on board as editor. Blue Ant will manage international distribution.
The air date hasn't been announced yet, but the two-part series is officially confirmed.
