Apple will be releasing the Billie Eilish documentary "The World's A Little Blurry in February 2021, with the film about the singer-songwriter's life set to appear in theaters as well as on Apple TV+.
Teased on the Apple TV YouTube channel, the documentary will show the life of Eilish, including what has happened to the musical star since the release of her award-winning debut album "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?" in 2019.
Few details about the documentary's content are offered in the teaser, which largely consists of a date and title reveal, as well as Eilish's singing. Toward the end of the video is a clip of a young Eilish as a child, sat in front of a piano, hinting that it will cover aspects of her childhood.
The film is from Apple Original Films, in association with Interscope Films, Darkroom, This Machine, and Lighthouse Management & Media. It is directed by award-winning filmmaker R.J. Cutler.
At launch, the film will be available to view both in theaters and via Apple TV .
The first details of a Billie Eilish film surfaced in December 2019, when Apple reportedly signed a deal for the exclusive rights to the documentary for approximately $25 million.
The documentary is the latest in a number of ways Eilish has been involved with Apple, including winning at the first Apple Music Awards and taking part in a live stream from the Steve Jobs Theater for Apple Music. She has also played a part in "Today at Apple" Music Lab sessions.

Do we need to stare at that emo glare for a whole show? Must be hard to smile when you're a young millionaire in 2020...
These are the reasons why barely anyone has actually subscribed to Apple TV+
Thank god. I've been waiting so many years for this.
That's a lot of bitterness for so few posts. I don't usually watch documentaries about living people, especially musicians, but Billie and Finneas are such a rarity of talent and success that I may check this one out.
Most overrated new “artist” since the last one.
