A new documentary exploring the life and career of legendary TV producer Gerry Anderson is to be screened across the country as part of a national tour.<\/p>\n

Gerry Anderson: A Life Uncharted will be available to stream on BritBox<\/a> from Thursday 14th April \u2013 on what would\u2019ve been Anderson\u2019s 93rd birthday.<\/p>\n

But the film will first premiere at an exclusive preview screening at the BFI Southbank in London on Saturday, 9th April, with tickets going on sale in late February.<\/p>\n

This special screening will be followed by a Q&A with the film\u2019s director and producer Benjamin Field, and producer Jamie Anderson \u2013 the youngest son of Gerry Anderson \u2013 marking the start of a run of screening and Q&A events that will take place across the UK and beyond over the coming months.<\/p>

Following the BFI Southbank screening, the tour will kick off on Friday 15th April at the UK\u2019s oldest cinema, The Electric, Birmingham, at an event hosted by Jon Culshaw. Further screening locations and dates will be announced in the coming months.<\/p>\n

Gerry Anderson\u2019s career spanned 60 years, with his iconic works including such popular television series as\u00a0Thunderbirds (1965-66), Stingray (1964-65), Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons (1967-68), Space: 1999 (1975-77), Terrahawks (1983-86), and Space Precinct (1994-95).<\/p>\n

Released a decade after his death in 2012, Gerry Anderson: A Life Uncharted will draw on access to over 30 hours of previously unpublished interviews in order to share new, untold stories.<\/p>\n

In addition to featuring commentary from friends, family, fans and colleagues, archive audio will also be combined with \u2018deep fake\u2019 technology<\/a> to allow Anderson to appear on-screen and tell his own story, from\u00a0a poverty-stricken childhood to success in the worlds of cult television.<\/p>\n
