Helmed by Oscar-winning “20 Feet From Stardom” and “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” director Morgan Neville, the two-part film will uncover details about Martin’s life fans never knew.
“It’s somebody else’s take,” Martin told THR about the documentary. “They found a lot of archival stuff. They found a photo of my father in 1944 in Germany, touring Our Town with the USO.”
Martin, who has been a prolific actor, director and author, published a memoir titled Born Standing Up in 2007, and is set to release a new book about his career in film, Number One Is Walking: My Life in the Movies and Other Diversions, out in November.
