Mick Jagger's production company plans a series of hour-long celebrity shows for American cable television modeled on the 2001 documentary "Being Mick."
The subjects will include public figures as well as actors, musicians and sports stars and the company says the aim is a cinema verite approach that will show stars' lives day-to-day instead of in a chronological biography.
"The viewer will really feel the intimacy and have access with them in their home, recording studio -- wherever they might be," Bob DeBitetto, an A&E programming vice president, told the Reporter. "It does require the talent allowing a level of access they are not used to."
Jagger is to be the executive producer while Victoria Pearman, the executive in charge of Jagged Films, is the producer.
