Music News: Boy George + Culture Club Documentary

Boy George is returning to the spotlight with a new documentary tracing the rise of Culture Club.

The singer, 64, whose work with Culture Club defined 1980s pop through hits including Karma Chameleon and Do You Really Want to Hurt Me, is the focus of Boy George and Culture Club, a documentary directed by Alison Ellwood and set for release on June 9, 2026.Â

The film, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2025, has now been acquired for North American distribution by Vantage Media.Â

It charts Boy Georgeâs emergence as a global star, the bandâs cultural influence and the personal challenges that shaped his career, drawing on archival footage and interviews.

The filmmakers describe the documentary as an âintimate and unfilteredâ portrait of Boy Georgeâs trajectory, examining identity, artistry and reinvention across decades in the public eye.Â

Director Alison, known for directing The Go-Goâs, Laurel Canyon and Cyndi Lauper: Let the Canary Sing, has previously focused on music history and countercultural movements.Â

Her earlier work also includes producing and editing credits on documentaries such as Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room and Gonzo, as well as executive producing Totally Under Control.

Announcing the acquisition of the film, Kellie Mutch, president of North America distribution at Vantage Media, said: âBringing this film to audiences is incredibly exciting for us. Itâs not only a celebration of an iconic artist and era, but also a deeply human story about creativity, perseverance, and cultural influence. Ellwood has crafted something truly specialâboth intimate and expansive â and weâre proud to be the home for its North American release.â

The film has been produced by Propagate in association with Fine Point Films, Primary Wave Music and Polygram Entertainment.Â

Executive producers include Ben Silverman, Howard T. Owens, James Packer, Drew Buckley, Isabel San Vargas, Andrew D Corkin and Eimhear OâNeill, with production led by Natalia Nastaskin, Lawrence Mestel, David Blackman, Trevor Birney and Andrew Tully.

The documentary arrives as Boy George continues to maintain a presence in popular culture beyond his music career, including television appearances and public commentary, while Culture Clubâs legacy remains central to discussions of 1980s pop and the evolution of gender expression in mainstream music.

The North American rollout is set to begin on June 9, with further release details expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
