Behind the scenes ofone of the most surprising and revolutionary series of the 2010s will soon be revealed by a three part documentary, do you like it?
The Discovery + streaming service will look into the tragedies and setbacks of the series Joy, created by Ryan Murphy, through a three-part documentary. The documentary will be brought by the testimonies of those who have been at the center Joy from 2009 to 2015 and who experienced the hype and the slow fall of the series from within.
Some topics are already proving essential, since Glee is not just a hit show, but a phenomenon that has dragged its share of tragedies so much so that it was believed he had been hit by a curse.
Glee: a cursed cast?
The death of actor Cory Monteith in 2013 from an overdose at the age of 31 was the first blow to the series, even when it was still on air.
Three years after the final episode of Glee, it is Mark Salling’s suicide, the interpreter of Puck, in 2018, which shocked fans, despite far more worrying circumstances. The actor ended his life risking being condemned by justice after being indicted for possession of child pornography images.
Finally, and more recently, in July 2020, it comes to the tragic death of Naya Rivera, whose role as Santana had been a breath of fresh air for many young Latin lesbians looking for a representation who found nothing else, which was the last stroke of fate around the series.
A racist show star and a decidedly toxic atmosphere
With brutal deaths, are also the revelations on the behavior of some stars of the series, starting with that of Lea Michele, the indescribable Rachel Berry, which have been widely followed and commented on.
Her racist actions have been denounced by actresses Amber Riley, Samantha Ware or actor Dabier Snell, while the actress and singer showed her support for the Black Lives Matter movement after George Floyd’s assassination in 2020. holy hypocrisy for many of his former colleagues:
“GIRL DON’T LET ME SIT AT THE TABLE OF THE OTHER CAST MEMBERS BECAUSE IT WASN’T IN MY PLACE” Fuck you LEA “
And finally, what better way to identify definitely unhealthy atmosphere around Joy like this quote from its creator Ryan Murphy, shortly after the final applause, in an interview with Entertainment Weekly:
“There have been a lot of infighting. Many people slept together and then broke up. It was good parenting practice, I can tell you. But I also made a mistake: it had become too personal. We enjoyed being together so much that we went to dinner together, spent time together, we were together all the time, so there were no limits between who was the boss and who was the employee. We were so close that when something happened, it touched me so much that I freaked out. “
It was Discovery + and ID, behind the Armie Hammer documentary, that picked up the crisp file Joy. For the moment, we still don’t know if he will examine the obscure rumor about Lea Michele and her alleged inability to read … but we can’t wait.
