The two actors are set to work with their production companies and Sony Music Publishing on the project, which will be directed by Dawn Porter. According to The Hollywood Reporter, it is the first documentary about eight-time Grammy winner Luther Vandross. “Luther is one of our GOATs,” Foxx said in a statement. “He is one of the greatest singers in music history. It is truly an honor to be part of the team and to help bring this incredible story to the masses.” The filmmakers have “access to the musician’s never-before-seen personal archive” and the project has the support of his closest friends and family.
Jamie Foxx was seen in public for the first time since his hospitalization a few days ago. The US portal “TMZ” published video recordings showing the actor in a good mood and waving on a boat. The Hollywood star was admitted to a Georgia hospital on April 12. At the time, his eldest daughter Corinne announced that there had been a “medical complication”. Since then, there has been much speculation about the health of the “Ray” actor. What exactly happened to Jamie Foxx in April is still unclear to this day.
