Considering he's one of the most influential musician's of all time, it comes as no surprise that there is to be yet another documentary made about Elvis Presley.

The two-part project, coming from HBO Entertainment, will span three hours and is the product of director Thom Zimny and writer Alan Light. It'll track Presley from his childhood in Tupelo, Mississippi right through to the recording of his final studio album, Moody Blue, in 1976.

Deadline reports that what sets this work apart from the several other Presley documentaries in existence is HBO's success in acquiring "unprecedented access to Graceland archives" alongside "never-before-seen photos and footage from private collections worldwide."

Zimny has made a career profiling another beloved musician having made several Bruce Springsteen documentaries, namely The Promise: The Making Of Darkness On The Edge Of Town as well as The Ties That Bind - both for HBO.

The as-of-yet untitled documentary is expected to air in 2017.
