Coming-of-Age Docuseries "Always Jane," Following the Journey of Transgender Teen Jane Noury and Her Family, Premieres November 12 on Amazon Prime Video
The four-part story, an intimate look at Jane as she navigates major life changes with the support of her family, will premiere in more than 240 countries and territories
CULVER CITY, California - September 30, 2021 - Today, Amazon Prime Video announced the upcoming four-part docuseries Always Jane, which follows transgender teenager Jane Noury and her family as she nears graduation and prepares to leave the nest in a true coming-of-age story. This intimate and unguarded look at the Nourys reveals a family with unconditional love that shines through as they tackle obstacles head-on so that Jane can live authentically. Navigating deeply personal and challenging issues, the Noury family's uplifting humor and kindness is always present, revealing the transformative power of acceptance, support, and love. All four episodes of the Amazon Original series Always Jane will premiere on Prime Video on Friday, November 12, in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
"Always Jane is a revealing look at one family's uplifting and heartfelt journey, anchored by Jane's incredible candor and wit about her life thus far," said Vernon Sanders, co-head of television, Amazon Studios. "We know Jane's triumphant story and her extraordinary family will resonate with our Prime Video viewers."
"We have been afforded the opportunity with Always Jane to offer a rare look at one family's journey to acceptance. The Nourys are hilarious, honest, and raw in their commitment to love, and support one another no matter what. It is a joy to watch [and] it's been our privilege to share their story," said director Jonathan C. Hyde.
"I see Always Jane as a love story. Love stories always have hopes, dreams, and heartache, but best of all - a happily ever after. My family has always abundantly showered my sisters and I with love and acceptance, and that made all the difference in the world for my transition. My genuine hope is that a family who may be struggling with acceptance is inspired to open their hearts and embrace their very own story of love upon viewing Always Jane," said Jane Noury.
Jane, who is actively pursuing a career in modeling and acting and recently appeared in Rihanna's Savage X Fenty Vol. 3 fashion show, is currently enrolled in college as a film major. The docuseries, which includes footage intimately captured by Jane herself, reveals Jane's passion and gift for visual storytelling.
Always Jane is a production of Amazon Studios, Mutt Film, and Union Editorial. Jonathan C. Hyde directed the series and also served as executive producer with James Haygood and Michael Raimondi. Mutt Film's Beth George and Shannon Lords-Houghton and Jane Noury also served as executive producers, while Katherine LeBlond served as producer.

Jane Noury lives with her family in rural New Jersey, and like any teenager, must balance friends, family, and school.
