OWN Spotlight: Luther: Never Too Much to Premiere on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network on Friday, February 7 at 9pm ET/PT

(Los Angeles, CA) -- OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network will premiere the film Luther: Never Too Much on Friday, February 7 at 9pm ET/PT with a special introduction from Oprah Winfrey as she reflects on the impact of Luther Vandross and his unique ability to connect through his lyrics and music. The critically acclaimed film celebrates the vocal virtuoso and chronicles the obstacles and triumphs he had along the way to become one of the most decorated and influential artists of all time. From award-winning filmmaker Dawn Porter and produced by Raindog Films and Foxxhole Productions for Sony Music Entertainment and Sony Music Publishing, in association with Trilogy Films and CNN Films, OWN Spotlight: Luther: Never Too Much will premiere on Friday, February 7 at 9pm ET/PT on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network.

Luther: Never Too Much chronicles the story of Vandross from his formative years in Harlem, appearing in the Apollo Theater house band and the first episodes of Sesame Street, through his ascendance to become the indisputable master of the love song. Using a wealth of rarely seen archives, Vandross tells his own story along with the voices of his closest friends and musical collaborators including Jamie Foxx, Mariah Carey, Dionne Warwick, Valerie Simpson and Roberta Flack. The film unpacks the nuances and ironies of Vandross' storied career, exploring his personal life, health struggles, and a lifelong desire to be respected and understood.

"Celebrating the extraordinary talent and life of Luther Vandross, this documentary highlights an innovative trailblazer whose story exemplifies the powerful, inspiring narratives that OWN is dedicated to bringing to the forefront," said Tina Perry, President of OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network. "We honor Luther's impact on music and culture by sharing his legendary works and lasting influence, and we are excited for our audience to experience this heartfelt tribute to one of the greatest voices of our time."

Luther: Never Too Much recently received two nominations for the 56th Annual NAACP Image Awards in Outstanding Documentary and Outstanding Directing in a Documentary.

To celebrate the film premiere, Luther Vandross' previously unreleased soulful rendition of the Beatles' "Michelle" is available now. The song is one of many included on Never Too Much: Greatest Hits, a new compilation of music by Vandross out now.

Directed and executive produced by Dawn Porter, Luther: Never Too Much is produced by Trish D Chetty and Ged Doherty for Raindog Films; Jamie Foxx and Datari Turner for Foxxhole Productions; and Leah Smith for Trilogy Films. Executive producers are Eli Holzman and Aaron Saidman for Sony Pictures Television Nonfiction; Tom Mackay and Richard Story for Sony Music Entertainment; Jon Platt and Brian Monaco for Sony Music Publishing; Colin Firth for Raindog Films; and Phil Thornton on behalf of Foxxhole Productions.
