Céline Dion and 3 Sons Send Message to Her Husband René Angélil 10 Years After His Death
Céline Dion’s childhood is all coming back to you now.
Quite literally, as a series based on the “My Heart Will Go On” singer has been ordered by LA’s Diamant Rouge Entertainment and is set to be produced by her brother Jacques Dion.
“This series represents something deeply meaningful for our family, as it captures the spirit, struggles, and love that defined our upbringing,” Jacques told Deadline in a May 28 statement. “We are proud to finally share this story with the world in a way that feels true to who we are.”
The upcoming series will have Zoë Green as a showrunner and is based on Dion, A Family Saga, a book written by the Grammy winner’s nephew<em> </em>Jimmy Dion, who is also Jacques’ son. It will follow Céline’s early years growing up in Quebec, as well as her family’s close-knit dynamic with her mother Thérése Dion and her 13 siblings.
Casting has yet to take place, but Céline has already been portrayed on stage in the Broadway musical Titaníque, which retells the story of the 1997 movie Titanic from the perspective of Céline—who in the comedy claims to have been on the boat.
