A new Bon Jovi docuseries is the first one made with full cooperation from all past and present members.
The history of one of the world’s most successful rock bands will be explored in Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story, a four-part docuseries that will debut on 26 April on Hulu.
“As thrilling as the story of a once-in-a-lifetime talent is, it is even more rare that a legend like Jon Bon Jovi lets the world into his most vulnerable moments while he’s still living them,” said a description of the docuseries, directed and executive produced by Gotham Chopra.
The series includes personal videos, unreleased demos, original lyrics and “never-before-seen photos that chronicle the journey from Jersey Shore clubs to the biggest stages on the planet.”
Founding member Richie Sambora, 64, revealed a Bon Jovi reunion tour was not out of the question off the back of the series.
“There’s a documentary that’s being done about the band and stuff that I’ve participated in, and people want to come see us play, and it’s going to make everybody happy,” the guitarist said in November. “I mean, essentially, that’s why you do it at this point. So yeah, it definitely could happen. It’s just a question of when everybody’s ready to go do it. It will be a big, massive kind of undertaking.”
Over the past 40 years, Bon Jovi has had 11 albums in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200. They have also notched up four number-one singles; You Give Love a Bad Name, Livin’ on a Prayer, Bad Medicine and I’ll Be There for You.
The band was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2018.
