Apple Shares Trailer for Billie Eilish Documentary 'The World's A Little Blurry'

Apple today shared the trailer for upcoming Billie Eilish documentary "The World's A Little Blurry," which is set to launch on Apple TV+ and in theaters in February 2021.


Apple paid $25 million for the rights to the documentary, which follows the 18-year-old singer-songwriter's life after the launch of her debut album in March 2019.

The documentary is described as a "true coming of age story" that will offer a "deeply intimate look" at her rise to stardom.

"Billie Eilish: The World's A Little Blurry" tells the true coming-of-age story of the singer-songwriter and her rise to global superstardom. From award-winning filmmaker R.J. Cutler, the documentary offers a deeply intimate look at this extraordinary teenager's journey, at just seventeen years old, navigating life on the road, on stage, and at home with her family, while writing, recording and releasing her debut album "WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?"

Eilish's album, "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?" earned her several Grammy awards including Best New Artist, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and more. "The World's A Little Blurry" documentary is directed by R.J. Cutler, who has also directed movies like "If I Stay" and "Listen to Me Marlon." Additional info on the documentary can be found in Apple's press release.

I certainly have my prejudices against most pop musicians hyped by the industry, but I've finally listened to her album When we all fall asleep, where do we go? and actually enjoyed it a lot. Not sure I understand all of the negativity on display here.

Looking forward to this documentary.
Almost everything gets negavity here. Most threads are just a cesspool of garbage, I have no idea why I even continue clicking to the comments.

It's apparently a MacRumors commenter requirement: if you see a post about an Apple TV documentary about a famous person, you must comment about how much you don't like that person and won't watch that documentary. On occasion, you may instead comment that you simply do not know who that person is. Under no circumstances are you allowed to simply acknowledge to yourself that other people may have different tastes and not post about the subject.

(Seriously, this happens every single time and I was not surprised when I checked out the comments here, either.)

Billy ... is in all intention and purposes through art and performance the modern Michael Jackson, Whiteney Houston, etc.
No. Not even close. If you like her music, so be it, but she's definitely not the modern Jackson, Houston, Madonna, etc.
