\n\tApple TV+ on Wednesday released the trailer for Mr. Scorsese<\/a>, its five-part documentary series from Rebecca Miller<\/a> about 11-time Oscar-nominated director-writer-producer Martin Scorsese<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe docuseries is gearing up for its world premiere Saturday<\/a> in the Spotlight section of Scorsese\u2019s hometown New York Film Festival<\/a>. That comes ahead of an October 17 release date<\/a> on the streamer.<\/p>\n

\n\tMr. Scorsese features never-before-seen footage and in-depth interviews with those closest to Scorsese, with a talking-heads list that includes his frequent leading actors Robert De Niro, Daniel Day-Lewis and Leonardo DiCaprio along with Mick Jagger, Robbie Robertson, Thelma Schoonmaker, Steven Spielberg, Sharon Stone, Jodie Foster, Paul Schrader, Margot Robbie, Cate Blanchett, Jay Cocks and Rodrigo Prieto; his children; wife Helen Morris; and childhood friends.<\/p>\n

\n\tAlong with interviews with Scorsese, the interviewees and his own artistic output will help paint a picture of the man whose singular filmography grapples with the question of whether humans are intrinsically good or evil (\u201cI struggle with that all the time,\u201d he says in the trailer), beginning with 1967\u2019s Who\u2019s That Knocking at My Door starring Harvey Keitel and includes such wide-ranging titles as Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, The Last Temptation of Christ, Goodfellas, Gangs of New York, The Aviator, The Departed (his only Oscar Best Director win so far), The Wolf of Wall Street and his last pic, 2023 Best Picture Oscar nominee Killers of the Flower Moon.<\/p>\n

\n\t(Upcoming addition to the list: As Deadline broke earlier this month, Scorsese just locked in his next film<\/a>, with DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence set to star in the ghost story thriller What Happens at Night.)<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI knew I could express myself with pictures,\u201d Scorsese says. \u201cBut I had to find my own way.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tExecutive producers of Mr. Scorsese include Miller and Damon Cardasis, Cindy Tolan, Rick Yorn, Christopher Donnelly and Julie Yorn. Ron Burkle is producer of the docuseries, which is presented by Expanded Media and Round Films in association with LBI Entertainment and Moxie Pictures.<\/p>\n
