Netflix to Release Documentary on Legendary Pop Duo Roxette

Netflix has announced an upcoming documentary centered on the iconic Swedish pop-rock duo Roxette, set to premiere globally on the streaming platform. The film aims to chronicle the extraordinary rise of Marie Fredriksson and Per Gessle, whose unique sound and timeless hits helped define a generation of pop music in the late 1980s and 1990s.

Titled Roxette: Listen to My Heart, the documentary promises to offer an intimate look into the lives and careers of the duo, best known for chart-topping singles like “It Must Have Been Love,” “Listen to Your Heart,” “The Look,” and “Joyride.” Through a combination of never-before-seen archival footage, personal interviews, and behind-the-scenes material, the film seeks to capture the duo’s musical journey, their global impact, and the personal struggles that accompanied their success.

Marie Fredriksson, whose powerful vocals became a defining feature of the Roxette sound, passed away in 2019 after a long battle with illness. The documentary will pay tribute to her legacy while also exploring the enduring creative partnership between her and Gessle, as well as the challenges they faced in maintaining global popularity.

The documentary will also delve into the band’s influence on future generations of musicians and their continued relevance in today’s nostalgic pop culture landscape.

Roxette: Listen to My Heart is expected to follow in the footsteps of other successful music documentaries on Netflix, offering both longtime fans and new listeners a fresh perspective on one of the most beloved duos in pop history.
