“Terrified of the spotlight? These kids will show you what real bravery looks like.” Disney+ has unveiled an official trailer for Choir, a documentary series streaming later this month on their service. Looks like an uplifting & inspiring tale of how much of a difference passion & determination can make. Take centerstage and sing your heart out with Detroit Youth Choir. Even though this is just a series about this youth choir, it’s produced by Blumhouse (and Jason Blum) and Maniac Productions, plus Brian Grazer & Ron Howard. Lots of big names involved with this! But that’s because this group made an appearance on “America’s Got Talent.” A teacher, mentor and father figure in the heart of Detroit, Anthony has impacted and empowered more than 1000 kids through music for over two decades. His efforts captivated America in the rise to the finale of “America’s Got Talent” in 2019. This looks like it should be quite moving and entertaining to watch.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Disney+’s doc series Choir, direct from Disney+’s YouTube:
Choir is a 6-part documentary series following the kids of the Detroit Youth Choir as they prepare for the performance of a lifetime.
