HBO Moves Up Release Date of Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds Documentary to Next Week

In light of their untimely deaths, HBO has decided to move up the release date of their documentary on Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds. Deadline reports the documentary will now air January 7th. Bright Lights features the lives of both Fisher and Reynolds and centers on Reynolds' Vegas show and the two living together as performing begins to take its toll on Reynolds.

The film received high acclaim at Cannes prior to the actresses' passing, so at least this will feel more like an homage than a quick "strike while the iron is hot" deal that so many studios seem to jump on when stuff like this happens. Will you be watching the documentary when it airs?
