'Because I Believe': What To Know About Andrea Bocelli's Documentary

"Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe" will share the inspiring life story of the famed Italian singer, Andrea Bocelli.

Bocelli, who debuted in 1994 with the album "Il Mare Calmo della Sera," will mark the 30th anniversary of his career. He has not released an LP since, "Believe," in 2020, but fans will have a glimpse of his life and career in a new documentary.

What To Know About "Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe"

Director Cosima Spender will look into Bocelli's life and career in the documentary, as the film will also include behind-the-scenes of the singer's performances.

The singer and his wife, Veronica, will serve as the executive producers alongside Geno McDermott, Matt Pritchard, Francesco Pasquero, Scott Rodger, Tara Long, and Malcolm Gerrie.

Prior to the release, Spender expressed her gratitude to be invited into "someone else's world" and tell their story to others.

"When that person is Andrea Bocelli, it's an opportunity to delve into a landscape of sounds, memories, and opera that are entirely unique to him," she added. "Andrea and I instantly recognized each other thanks to the simple fact: we were born and grew up in the same rural Tuscan region."

Because of that, they reportedly had an immediate connection and understanding while sharing a similar attachment to their homeland.

Jan Younghusband, who serves as a producer, said the film will offer a truly unique insight into the life of Bocelli and that it is an honor to work with those people to share the most loved tenor's story through the film.

Andrea Bocelli Stuns Fans With a Rendition of Elvis Presley's Song

On July 27, Bocelli breathed life into Elvis Presley and his song, "Can't Help Falling in Love," during his annual Teatro del Silenzio concert in Tuscany.

The Italian singer annually holds a concert at the venue after he persuaded the local municipality to create the open-air theatre. He reportedly contributed financially to complete the project.

In his performance, Italian pop star Emma Morrone joined him to give the audience an unforgettable joy and experience.

In a previous interview, Bocelli spoke about his love for the late King.

"There is no denying that Elvis had a great talent," Bocelli said. "He possessed a pliant voice with extensive range and a soft and enveloping timbre. Plus, he was an extremely charismatic person."

Presley recorded "Can't Help Falling in Love" in 1961 as a score for the movie, "Blue Hawaii."
