Jimi Hendrix Documentary Film Coming From ‘Greatest Night in Pop’ Director


A new documentary about Jimi Hendrix, called 'Jimi, is on the way from Bao Nguyen, the director behind 'Greatest Night in Pop.'

The documentary “will tell the story of a transformational period in music history when Jimi Hendrix set the world — and his guitar — on fire,” read a press release description. Along with directing The Greatest Night in Pop about the recording of 1985 “ We Are the World, ” Nguyen also helmmed several other documentaries including the Bruce Lee-focused Be Water. “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,” Janie said.
