Julio Iglesias Will ‘Tell Truth About My Life’ in Netflix Docu-Series
“Julio Iglesias has trusted us to tell his story. We are very grateful for his generosity,” said Diego Ávalos, vice president of content at Netflix
The life of Spanish legend Julio Iglesias is coming to the small screen.
On Thursday, Netflix announced a partnership with Iglesias for an upcoming documentary series about the “Me Olvidé de Vivir” singer’s life.
“After the many speculations, books and documentaries in which I have not been involved, for the first time I have decided to tell the truth about my life to a universal company like Netflix,” Iglesias (father of Enrique Iglesias) said in a statement. “After much deliberation, finally, a very touching letter sent to me by Bela Bajaria, chief content officer at Netflix, was enough to convince me that Netflix was the ideal company to develop this project.”
“I feel grateful to a lot of people from many countries who have supported me and have boosted my life,” he added.
The new series is set to tell the life story of how he became the first “universal star” and non-English artist to break into American and Asian markets, according to a press release. The show will celebrate Iglesias’ 55-year trajectory, which has included songs such as “Soy un Truhán, Soy un Señor,” “Hey,” and “Con La Misma Piedra.”
“Julio Iglesias has trusted us to tell his story. We are very grateful for his generosity,” said Diego Ávalos, vice president of content at Netflix. “We all know that his talent and tenacity are unique in the world. Now, we will have the opportunity to see beyond the lights, the pictures in the magazines, the gold records and to really get to know in depth an exceptional person who has accompanied and will accompany many generations in every corner of the planet.”
Iglesias won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Grammys in 2019 and took home the Best Latin Pop Album trophy in 1988 with Un Hombre Solo.
