George Michael is busy putting the finishing touches to his special documentary film ‘Freedom’.
He has discovered some incredible, unseen archive footage and is shooting additional interviews for the project so the film will now air in March 2017.
It promises to be a real treat for fans! To coincide with the film’s broadcast, George and Sony Music have decided to move the reissue of the Listen Without Prejudice album to the same time.

FROM THINK PROGRESS:
“It feels like a bit of cosmic cruelty to lose George Michael in the same year we lost Prince and David Bowie... men who decided for themselves what ‘being a man’ ought to entail.”
