Dr Dre & Jimmy Iovine Documentary To Air On HBO
Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine are often shrouded in secrecy, but the moguls are about to make several revelations in The Defiant Ones, a four-part HBO documentary about their successful partnership.
Directed by famed filmmaker Allen Hughes, whose credits include Menace II Society, The Book of Eli, and Dead Presidents, The Defiant Ones follows Dre and Iovine’s individual careers as well as their work together, both at Aftermath and at Beats Electronics, the company that they sold to Apple for a lucrative $3 billion sum.
Not only does the film feature in-depth Dre and Iovine interviews, but it also includes appearances by Bono, Nas, Ice Cube, Gwen Stefani, Trent Reznor, and Snoop Dogg. It was reportedly shot over the course of three years and includes never-before-seen footage from the icons’ archives.
