As seen in the trailer for “Elton John: Never Too Late,” we are given full access to the career of Sir Elton John. From his beginnings as a child who just wanted nothing more than to be in music to an adult struggling with his sexuality to now being a legendary figure.
The new documentary comes from directors R.J. Cutler and David Furnish. The duo are an interesting combo for this film. On the one hand, you have Cutler, who is no stranger to documentaries, having directed a film about Billie Eilish. And on the other hand, you have Furnish, who is actually the husband of John. Take that for what it’s worth.
“Elton John: Never Too Late” debuts on Disney+ on December 13. You can watch the trailer below.
Here’s the synopsis:
Elton John: Never Too Late follows Elton John as he looks back on his life and the astonishing early days of his 50-year career in this emotionally charged, intimate and uplifting full-circle journey. As he prepares for his final concert in North America at Dodger Stadium, Elton takes us back in time to recount the extraordinary highs and heartbreaking lows of his early years and how he overcame adversity, abuse and addiction to become the icon he is today.
