Apple TV+ Lines Up Five-Part Martin Scorsese Doc

Apple TV+ has lined up the five-part documentary Mr. Scorsese, a portrait of the acclaimed director, producer and writer Martin Scorsese, directed by Rebecca Miller (She Came to Me, Personal Velocity).

The documentary explores the many facets of Scorsese through the lens of his work, exclusive and unrestricted access to his private archives and extensive conversations with the filmmaker himself, as well as never-before-seen interviews with friends, family and creative collaborators.

Contributors include Robert De Niro, Daniel Day-Lewis, Leonardo DiCaprio, Mick Jagger, Robbie Robertson, Thelma Schoonmaker, Steven Spielberg, Sharon Stone, Jodie Foster, Paul Schrader, Margot Robbie, Cate Blanchett, Jay Cocks and Rodrigo Prieto, along with his children, wife Helen Morris and close childhood friends.

Beginning with his New York University student films through to the present day, the five-parter explores the themes that have fascinated Scorsese over the years and informed his work.

Executive producers include Miller and Damon Cardasis at Round Films (Maggie’s Plan, Saturday Church), as well as Cindy Tolan (Étoile, Dandelion), Miller’s longtime creative collaborator. Rick Yorn, Christopher Donnelly and Julie Yorn also executive produce, with Robert Fernandez and Patrick Walmsley as co-executive producers.

The series is being presented by Expanded Media and Round Films in association with LBI Entertainment and Moxie Pictures.
