A Morgan Neville documentary about the late celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain will be coming to theaters this summer. 

Production Company Focus Features told Variety that Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain will hit theaters on July 16, with it also to be aired later on CNN and streaming service HBO Max.

Academy Award winner Neville, director of  20 Feet From Stardom and Won’t You Be My Neighbor – a documentary about Mr. Rogers – helmed the Bourdain project, which will feature previously unreleased footage from Bourdain’s acclaimed television series Parts Unknown.

“Anthony Bourdain did more to help us understand each other than just about anyone in the history of television,” said Morgan during the 2019 plan to make the Bourdain documentary, a joint venture between CNN, HBO, and Focus Films.

“He connected with people not in spite of his flaws, but because of them. To have the opportunity to tell his story is humbling.”

Bourdain rose to prominence after the publication of Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly in 2000, before gaining a huge audience worldwide for his engaging and culturally aware CNN series Parts Unknown, which not only focused on food but the people that created it.

Bourdain died in June 2018 at age 61 after committing suicide.

Roadrunner will have its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 11 before its theatrical release on July 16. Most screenings of the popular film festival will be held at outdoor and drive-in venues due to restrictions caused by the Pandemic.
