Martin Mull's famous friends introduce a charmed career in the trailer for Who Is Martin Mull?
Netflix's documentary about Hollywood Renaissance man Martin Mull arrives this October.
Who Is Martin Mull?, the upcoming documentary about the late comedian, musician, and actor, is destined to make you cry. Co-directed by the late Bob Saget and containing interviews with the late Fred Willard (who thought this documentary was a roast), and Mull himself, Martin Mull features a host of recently departed comedy luminaries toasting one of their own. Its first trailer hints at how close this movie came to being a little too late. Taking audiences through Mull’s breakthrough as a songwriter and musician, his time on Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, the Tonight Show—and fake Tonight Show, Fernwood 2 Night—and as a character actor in Clue, Roseanne, and Arrested Development, Who Is Martin Mull? also explains that he was a renowned painter. Few, if any, had a Hollywood career like Mull, and even fewer get referenced in New Riders Of Purple Sage songs. Who Is Martin Mull? aims to give him his flowers. With interviews from Steve Martin, Kerri Kenney-Silver, Tom Waits, and, uh, Ted Sarandos, Who Is Martin Mull? is poised to do what all the best Netflix comedian documentaries do: Shine a light on a beloved cultural icon whose story has yet to be told in full.
