WHAM! Doc Trailer

“How can the country be in love with these two idiots?” Netflix has unveiled a full-length official trailer for WHAM!, a new documentary film about the iconic music duo / 80s band called Wham!. Yes, the band that brought us “Wake Me Up Before You Go Go” and “Last Christmas”. The duo consisted of George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley. They became one of the most commercially successful pop acts of the 1980s, selling more than 30 million certified records worldwide from 1982 to 1986. This new film about the music group is directed by acclaimed doc filmmaker Chris Smith, known for Jim & Andy, Fyre, Operation Varsity Blues, Sr. and other doc series recently. With unprecedented access to both George and Andrew’s personal archive including never-before-seen footage, and previously unheard interviews, WHAM! charts in their own words the four year journey from teenage school friends to global superstars. This looks like perfect music doc fun for the summer. Pop icons! I’m curious to hear their stories that aren’t already known and haven’t been told. // Continue Reading ›
