The documentary is titled “Andre the Giant” and will focus on Andre’s life and career both in and out of the ring. It’s presented by HBO Sports and WWE, with JMH Films producing it in association with Bill Simmons’ Ringer Films.
The project was announced in February 2017, then a teaser video was put out last December. It was revealed earlier this year that the documentary would premiere on HBO on April 10th.
