Judd Apatow will co-direct and produce a two-part documentary about comedian George Carlin for HBO. Apatow will be joined by his frequent collaborator, Michael Bonfiglio, with whom he produced HBO's "Zen Diaries of Garry Shandling" in 2018.
More:
- The film will feature interviews with those who knew Carlin, along with TV appearances, stand-up specials, and material from his personal archives.
- Carlin died at age 71 in 2008.
- Apatow discussed the project with the Boston Globe in June, calling much of Carlin's work "very prophetic."
