Snooker fans are set to be offered new insight into the character of Ronnie O\u2019Sullivan with the launch of a documentary on the seven-time world champion.<\/p>\n
Regarded as perhaps the sport\u2019s greatest ever player, Ronnie O\u2019Sullivan: The Edge of Everything <\/em>will feature previously unseen footage of O\u2019Sullivan as a child and junior player, along with classic clips from snooker\u2019s archive.<\/p>\n It also follows the 47-year-old\u2019s pursuit of that seventh world title, including exclusive audio and footage of the moments after O\u2019Sullivan\u2019s record-equalling Crucible triumph over Judd Trump.<\/p>\n His life away from the baize will also be covered in depth, with interviews with his parents and a number of close friends, plus in-depth looks at his conversations with psychiatrist Steve Peters, a key factor in O\u2019Sullivan\u2019s sustained success.<\/p>\n The documentary was produced by Studio 99, owned by David Beckham, and directed by filmmaker Sam Blair.<\/p>\n It will be released on Amazon Prime Video on Thursday 23 November.<\/p>\n Those looking to watch in the United Kingdom and Ireland will be able to view the documentary sooner, though, with a number of cinemas showing it on Tuesday 21 November, and then a select number from Friday 24 November. <\/p>\n Showings will also include a Q&A with both O\u2019Sullivan and Beckham.<\/p>\n \u201cThroughout the making of this film, Ronnie gave us total access to his life, and even as he approached the the extraordinary and intensely stressful climax of the season, he was committed to inviting us into his most private moments,\u201d director Blair said of making the film to the World Snooker Tour. \u201cSomehow he managed to do this while being completely natural and unguarded on camera.<\/p>\n \u201cWe had no idea the film would end up taking us to the final of the World Championship, but that\u2019s the magic of Ronnie \u2013 we could never predict what would happen when we switched the camera on at any moment, and the whole process was full of surprise and spontaneity.\u201d<\/p>\n
