Netflix has acquired a new documentary about the Boeing 737 Max disasters from noted filmmaker Rory Kennedy.
First developed as a series, the streaming giant will air the project as a feature documentary on a to-be-determined date. The film comes from Imagine Documentaries, an arm of Brian Grazer and Ron Howard’s Imagine Entertainment, run by Justin Wilkes and Sara Bernstein.
Kennedy and her producing partner Mark Bailey, an Emmy-nominated writer, will examine the global tragedy that began in March 2019 after two new aircrafts crashed within five months, killing 346 people.
Media reports have focused on improperly vetted design flaws and an internal push for production speed at Boeing, while numerous accounts have pointed to pilot inexperience and poor airmanship. In addition to the human cost, the doc will explore the reputation crisis the iconic company has faced in the aftermath.
The doc will rely on first-person accounts, to put a human face on the tragedies.
