Netflix to make an ‘unflinching and sensitive’ documentary on the life of Anna Nicole Smith

Some legends truly never die. Almost 15 years after her shocking passing, Anna Nicole Smith is being memorialised once again in an upcoming Netflix documentary. The streaming platform confirms that director Ursula Macfarlane is creating a yet-untitled feature-length documentary about the life and death of the beloved reality star. "I approached Anna Nicole's story as an epic mystery tale," Macfarlane said in a statement. "How did someone with so much charisma and jaw-dropping beauty, with the world at her feet, fall so far, so quickly? Now feels like the right time to re-examine the life of yet another beautiful young woman whose life has been picked over and ultimately destroyed by our culture." According to Netflix, the project will feature "never-before-seen, exclusive footage from an unreleased documentary of an enchanting, unguarded young Anna Nicole on the verge of global stardom, offering a unique glimpse into her life out of the spotlight, and her dreams as a young mother." February 8 will mark 15 years since the reality star died of an accidental drug overdose.
