Céline Dion’s upcoming documentary officially has a premiere date.
“I Am: Céline Dion” will drop on Amazon Prime Video June 25, and the Canadian singer, 56, shared the first look of the project on Instagram Tuesday.
The feature is set to take a look at her music career and her struggles with the autoimmune neurological disorder, stiff person syndrome (SPS).
The image shows Dion thrusting her fist in the air as she appears to shout. She donned a beige sweater and tied her hair back in a low bun.
The official longline reads: “‘I Am: Céline Dion’ gives us a raw and honest behind-the-scenes look at the iconic superstar’s struggle with a life-altering illness. Serving as a love letter to her fans, this inspirational documentary highlights the music that has guided her life while also showcasing the resilience of the human spirit.”
The “My Heart Will Go On” singer first announced the project in January and it was filmed over the course of 12 months.
“[The] last couple of years has been such a challenge for me, the journey from discovering my condition to learning how to live with and manage it, but not to let it define me,” she said in a statement at the time.
Dion was diagnosed with SPS in December 2022 and canceled her tour dates amid her recovery.
“As the road to resuming my performing career continues, I have realized how much I have missed it, of being able to see my fans,” she continued.
“During this absence, I decided I wanted to document this part of my life, to try to raise awareness of this little-known condition, to help others who share this diagnosis.”
Dion has “lost control of her muscles” amid her battle, according to her sister, Claudette Dion.
According to Columbia University, the medical issue causes painful muscle spasms and affects one in a million people.
Since revealing her condition, she has made some appearances in public, including at a hockey game in Las Vegas and the 2024 Grammys in February.
“Those who have been blessed enough to be here at the Grammy Awards must never take for granted the tremendous love and joy that music brings to our lives and to people all around the world,” she said at the star-studded ceremony.
“It gives me great joy to present a Grammy Award that two legends, Diana Ross and Sting, presented to me 27 years ago,” she added.
She presented the Album of the Year award to Taylor Swift for her record “Midnights.”
