About HBO Max's One Perfect Shot
HBO Max's upcoming half-hour documentary series, One Perfect Shot, is set to premiere on March 24, with all six episodes releasing on HBO Max. The series will celebrate impact movie moments guided by Hollywood's most exhilarating cinematic voices.
The synopsis for One Perfect Shot reads:
"Created for television by Oscar nominee and Emmy winner Ava DuVernay and inspired by a popular Twitter account of the same name, each episode of One Perfect Shot arms one acclaimed director with an arsenal of visual tools to pull back the curtain on their most iconic shots. Directors enter each shot, walking through the scene in 360 degree moments that allow viewers to join an immersive exploration of moviemaking. Filmmakers share their obstacles, challenges, lessons and triumphs as they detail the road to their one perfect shot."
The trailer for the series dropped last week and featured Crazy Rich Asians director Jon M. Chu, who said:
"Our responsibility as storytellers is to go to the very core of who we are. To some people, it’s a shot in a movie. But it’s much more personal than that. It wasn’t about changing who we were, but about making people understand who we are."
The series is executively produced by Ava DuVernay, Paul Garnes, Bruce Robertson, Neil Miller, and Sonia Slutsky. It will feature prolific filmmakers like Patty Jenkins, Aaron Sorkin, Kasi Lemmons, Jon M. Chu, Malcolm D. Lee, and Michael Mann, along with blockbuster films including Wonder Woman, The Trial of the Chicago 7, Harriet, Crazy Rich Asians, Girls Trip, and Heat.
