Paramount+ announces Wynonna Judd feature length documentary

Wynonna Judd: Between Hell and Hallelujah premiers April 26th

Paramount+ has announced Wynonna Judd: Between Hell and Hallelujah, a feature-length documentary following the legendary singer as she navigates the next phase of her life and career, will premiere exclusively on the service in the US on Wednesday, April 26th. The documentary will also premiere internationally in Canada, the UK, Australia, Latin America, Brazil, Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland and Austria on Wednesday, July 19th.

The doc offers audiences a raw, first-hand glimpse into Wynonna’s life as she bravely embarks on her next chapter following Naomi Judd’s untimely passing. Beginning with the decision to honor her mother’s legacy by continuing on with The Judds: The Final Tour, the documentary captures candid on-stage and behind-the-scenes moments as part of the sold out nationwide tour, along with personal anecdotes from Wynonna’s friends and fellow artists Ashley McBryde, Brandi Carlile, Faith Hill, Little Big Town, Kelsea Ballerini, Martina McBride and Trisha Yearwood. The film also includes moving and intimate footage of Wynonna spending quiet, reflective time on the farm with her beloved family and animals, as she continues to process her grief.

“It’s real and it’s raw,” Judd shares. “It’s celebration and sadness. It’s all of the people who I leaned on during one of the toughest seasons of my life. I wanted the opportunity to tell my story in my voice. If doing so helps one person out there choose life, then I am grateful.”

On the heels of the documentary streaming on Paramount+, CMT Presents The Judds: Love Is Alive – the Final Concert will premiere Saturday, April 29th at 8 pm ET/PT exclusively on sister network CMT. The special two-hour concert event follows Wynonna’s history-making homecoming return to the Murphy Center at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU), recreating The Judds’ 1991 farewell tour for a special televised event featuring Wynonna’s tourmates Ashley McBryde, Brandi Carlile, Kelsea Ballerini, Little Big Town and Martina McBride, all sharing the same bill for the first time ever.
