Lily Allen to Star in 2027 Prime Video Doc

is set to star in a new Prime Video documentary charting her 'extraordinary' rise to fame.

The singer, 41, has had a triumphant return to the music scene with her comeback album West End Girl, and will now appear in the feature-length film looking back at her life.

The retrospective documentary will chart Lily's journey, from the "Queen of MySpace" who changed the rules of the music industry, to the cultural force she is today. 

As a pioneering woman in modern music, Lily's sharp wit and candid storytelling directly paved the way for a generation of today's biggest female artists.

Featuring interviews with those who know her best, the documentary builds a rich and revealing portrait of an artist defined by her creative fearlessness. 

The documentary will be directed by award-winning filmmaker Mat Whitecross, who previously directed Oasis: Supersonic and : A Head Full of Dreams, and will be released on Prime Video in 2027.

Lily had a huge musical comeback last year with her album West End Girl, which detailed her tumultuous split from husband David Harbour, and allegations he cheated on her. 

Earlier this year, the Smile hitmaker opened up about the toll her tumultuous last year has taken on her daughters as she admitted they are struggling to readjust following the family's relocation to the UK.

The star revealed that Ethel and Marnie are finding it difficult to navigate changes after moving from New York back to the UK.

Lily, who released her West End Girl album that detailed ex David Harbour's alleged affair whilst they were together, returned home after the breakdown of her marriage to the 51-year-old.

Speaking candidly on her podcast Miss Me?, Lily said: 'I've done quite a lot this year.

'I've finished an album, I got a boob job, I had a nervous breakdown, I went into hospital for a bit, I came out, I did some podcasting for a while, then I played one of the hardest tracks in theatre and killed myself [in the role of Hedda Gabler] every night for seven weeks.'

She continued: 'My kids are f***ing mental at the moment... They are really developing their personalities. It's just a lot. There's a lot of questions.

'There's a lot of change in our lives at the moment. We've changed houses, we've changed countries, we've changed schools, and it's a lot.'

Lily added that she barely recognises her youngest daughter, who sounds completely different since returning to British soil.

'Their accents have changed because they've come back. Like, now Marnie properly sounds like Princess Margaret. I'm like, who are you?

'Literally six months ago, she was like, [puts on a New York accent] "What? No...". And now it's like a completely different person.'

She continued: 'But they are discovering who they are. They're grappling with some new ideas in terms of who I am.

'The last five years, I've been a stay at home mum. And now I'm a single mum that has to work and suddenly has a lot of work opportunities on my plate and I'm having to travel a lot.

'But they also like having a nice roof over their heads and nice clothes and being able to go to nice restaurants and things. So they understand it. But it's just a lot of change.

'There's a lot of change and also new friends, new friendship groups and the idea of like boyfriends.'

Lily's tumultuous last year kicked off with news of her split from David after four years of marriage.

The breakdown of her relationship prompted Lily to seek treatment at a mental health facility. At the time, she explained on her podcast that her priority was being the best mother possible.

'I'm in a situation now where I really have to be my strongest self for them,' she said at the time. 'I felt like it was getting harder and harder for me to be able to show up for them in the way that they needed me to.'

Since the split, David has maintained contact with his former stepdaughters, though Lily says she keeps her distance from those relationships.
