According to A&E’s press release, “Janet” has been in the works for more than three years, with filmmakers granted exclusive access to Jackson’s never-before-seen home videos to present an “intimate, honest and unfiltered look at her untold story.”
Viewers are promised “the definitive story on Janet Jackson” via a documentary that “lifts the lid on her private life for the very first time and reveals some of her most intimate moments ever caught on camera.”
“Janet” will debut on Jan. 28.
