An authorized Jimi Hendri documentary from 'The Greatest Night in Pop's Bao Nguyen is in the works, Deadline has learned.
The origin story watches as 23-year-old unsung sideman Jimmy James arrives in the Swinging London of 1966 and quickly establishes himself as “Jimi Hendrix,” blowing away the luminaries of the era with his virtuosic technique. In a statement on the project, the subject’s sister, Janie, who serves as President and CEO of Experience Hendrix, said, “Jimi’s time in London was some of the most pivotal in his life journey and his musical career. Just as Bao Nguyen has achieved in his films highlighting the lives of other iconic figures who influenced pop culture, this presentation of Jimi’s London experience will be inspiring and informative – a story told the way it should be.”
