The project doesn't yet have a title or release date, but we do know that the filmmakers have been given exclusive access to the Research In Motion Alumni Association, so there will be plenty of interviews with former executives who were involved in BlackBerry's history in one way or another. The film will also include “a number of never-before-seen archival footage.”
Director Schmidt shared a statement and said he's excited to “explore this unpredictable real-life saga at the intersection of technology and pop culture.” However, one thing the documentary won't have is actor Glenn Howerton killing it in his role as former Research In Motion CEO Jim Balsillie.
