The brand-new, two-and-a-half-and-a-half-minute trailer introduces us to Glee and its stars, who rose to the top of pop culture after the show’s 2009 premiere.

Cast members, their family members, friends, and members of the production team, such as set decorators, hairdressers, stylists, and publicists, as well as entertainment reporters who covered the series, participated in the interviews for the upcoming season. A tribute to Rivera is provided by her father, George Rivera, who provides an intimate and loving look back at Naya’s life as a young actress and how her career took off. These interviews go into detail about Monteith’s journey to superstardom as well as the demons that haunted him and led to his untimely death, the working relationship and fallout the cast faced in the shocking fallout of the Salling revelation, and Rivera’s working relationship and career trajectory.
