“The making of a family and a phenomenon.” Aura Entertainment has unveiled the triumphant trailer for a documentary film titled simply Satisfied, profiling the acclaimed, award-winning actress and singer named Renée Elise Goldsberry. The doc film follows her journey navigating motherhood and her roles on stage. Renée Elise Goldsberry is best known for originating the role of Angelica Schuyler in Hamilton, for which she won Tony & Grammy Awards, and received an Emmy Award nomination for the Disney+ filmed version (which will be out again in theaters this fall). She will return to Broadway in Spring 2026 in David Lindsay-Abaire’s new play The Balusters, and in movies will next co-star in Kathryn Bigelow’s highly-anticipated A House of Dynamite. Her recently-released debut album, “Who I Really Am“, is also available now. “Satisfied does a wonderful job telling the story behind the story of Hamilton… and Renée’s own journey & remarkable talents.” It’s not just about one actress – it’s about family and perseverance and success and everything else.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Chris Bolan & Melissa Haizlip’s doc film Satisfied, from YouTube:
Satisfied spotlights Tony- and Grammy Award-winning actress and singer Renée Elise Goldsberry. The film explores her life-changing experience originating the role of Angelica Schuyler in Hamilton, while simultaneously navigating her path to motherhood and balancing the competing demands of career and family. “Satisfied isn’t just a story about how one role, one show, changed the face of Broadway for future generations; it’s a story about motherhood and resilience. Renée’s story is both personal & powerful, with a behind-the-scenes look at a cultural phenomenon that audiences [everywhere] will find deeply moving.” Satisfied is co-directed by the two doc filmmakers Chris Bolan (director of A Secret Love) and Melissa Haizlip (director of Mr Soul!). It’s produced by Steven Cantor, Kelli O’Hara, Jamie Schutz, Chris Bolan & Melissa Haizlip. This initially premiered at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival last year. Aura Ent will debut the Satisfied doc in select US theaters starting on September 30th, 2025 coming soon. Who wants to watch?
