Oscar-Nominated Glen Campbell Doc Coming To CNN — stereogum.com

Later this year, CNN will air Glen Campbell: I’ll Be Me, the documentary about the country music star that focuses on his career and his struggle with Alzheimer’s disease. Earlier this month, the film won a Grammy for its theme song, “I’m Not Gonna Miss You,” and it’s nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Song tonight. (Tim McGraw will perform the track during tonight’s ceremony.) “We look forward to having the Campbells’ brave story — unfortunately familiar to too many American families — on CNN,” producer Trevor Albert said. “This partnership will guarantee that millions of people will have the opportunity to see our movie and understand just how important it is to both raise awareness — and find an end — to Alzheimer’s disease.” The James Keach-directed film will premiere in June, and air again in November.
