Taylor Swift: Miss Americana is an upcoming documentary film, directed by Lana Wilson, that follows American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift and her life over the course of several years of her career.[1][2]

The film will debut at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival on January 23, 2020, and will be released on Netflix in 2020.[2][3]

Background

Swift revealed the documentary in November 2019, when she said the owner and founder of her former label Big Machine Records, Scooter Braun and Scott Borchetta respectively, blocked her from using older music and performance footage for the documentary.[4] She added that the documentary does not mention Braun, Borchetta, or Big Machine.[5] Big Machine denied the accusations in a statement.[6] In response, a representative for Swift published an email from a Big Machine executive refusing to issue licences in connection to the documentary.[7] In December, Variety reported Big Machine has cleared the use of Swift's older material for the film.[1]
