“I am thrilled to share the full story of my mother’s life with the world,” said John Carter Cash, the only son of June and Johnny Cash, in a press statement. “Thank you to Sony Music Entertainment and Sandbox Productions for finding a place for it to live and to Paramount+ for giving it a home.”
“This film offers a great opportunity to realize that June was a star of television and music from an early age – decades before she became ‘Mrs. Johnny Cash,’” said Carlene Carter, June’s oldest daughter. “Steeped in the legacy of the Carter Family and as a solo artist, she always was – and, as seen through this film – always will remain a shining star in her own right. While some may not fully be aware of her many talents, influence and just how much she mattered as an entertainer, this lovely documentary offers clear insight for everyone to see the true character and the joy shared.”
According to the press release, the documentary features interviews, and never-before-seen archival material, among other scenes from June’s iconic entertainment career. June toured with Elvis Presley, was married to the late Johnny Cash, and was the songwriter behind her husband’s major hit, “Ring Of Fire,” and so much more.
June, the documentary was produced by Jason Owen, Josh Matas, Mary Robertson, Sarah Olson, and Kristen Vaurio. It originally premiered in November at the DOC NYC Festival.
