David Bowie’s Most Memorable Moments

OH! You’re in luck, a documentary about David Bowie narrated by the late star himself will hit theaters next year.

The series, titled Moonage Daydream, was the first series officially sanctioned by the Bowie family.

His son, Duncan Jones, swore that the family would never bless a Bohemian Rhapsody or Rocketman biopic.

He said: “I’m pretty sure no one has been granted the music rights to any biopic. I can’t imagine that will change.

“If you want to see a biopic without his music or family blessings, that’s up to the audience.”

The documentary will include 48 songs and examine Bowie’s influence on music, film, dance, painting and live theatre.

The narration is from the music legend, who passed away from cancer at the age of 69 in January 2016.

Director Brett Morgen was given access to Bowie’s personal archive, which included all of the key recordings.

Morgen unearthed hundreds of hours of never-before-seen film and was able to assemble performances from these early camera masters.

All performances in the film will be shown on screen for the first time.

Moonage Daydream refers to his hit from the 1972 album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars.
