Rihanna Navy: get ready. It seems as though the "FourFiveSeconds" singer is the latest poo megastar to get her own documentary. On Tuesday (March 11), it was announced that RiRI is reteaming with her Battleship director Peter Berg for an unfiltered look at her life and career.
Deadline reports that Berg's new Film 45 studio, which will focus on unscripted projects, will launch with a theatrical feature documentary about one of pop's biggest stars: Rihanna. Citing the 1967 rock doc Bob Dylan's Don't Look Back, the untitled Rihanna project will show all sides of RiRi and document her ascent to mega-stardom.
Teased as more of a personal documentary than a music film, Berg cited his interest in featuring "a young artist at the top of her field." And the movie is set to be an "unfiltered look into Rihanna's life and how she's ascended to become a global icon."
Concrete details surrounding Rihanna's documentary, including whether or not filming has begun, a title and a release date are tight under wraps.
Of course, Rihanna is not the first pop star to get a documentary in recent years. Justin Bieber kicked off the trend by dropping his film Never Say Never in 2011 and he followed it up with Justin Bieber's Believe in 2013. One Direction also dropped a pair of documentaries, This Is Us (2013) and Where We Are (2014). Even Rihanna's BFF Katy Perry got in on the game with Part of Me in 2012. Though, Film 45 is looking to distinguish Rihanna's movie by making it less of a concert film.
