He is also the producer and director of The Untitled Billie Eilish Documentary, an intimate look at the last year in the life of the 18 year-old Pop sensation whose music has been streamed over five billion times. Cutler's documentary series "Dear..." will premiere on Apple TV+ this spring, and his musical drama "Bronzeville" (which he executive produces along with John Ridley, Alicia Keys, Benj Pasek, Justin Paul and Mark Platt) has been ordered straight-to-series by Showtime.
