Dolly Parton and Kelly Clarkson Rendition of ‘9 to 5’ for New Documentary ‘Still Working 9 to 5’
Kelly Clarkson joins Dolly Parton on a remake of '9 to 5'
Chattanooga, TN:
40 years ago women was struggling for rights especially in the workforce and so three big star actresses (Dolly Parton, Jane Fonda, and Lily Tomlin) came together to create a movie, ‘9 to 5‘ to show the battle women had to fight for at the time. During this time it was very risky to have a film have not only one but three female leads. This seem to pay off though as the film grossed $103.3 million.
Fast forward to 2022 and it is still an arising problem and so they decided to bring back a sequel ‘Still Working 9 to 5‘, which is schedule to premiere in select theaters Sept. 16 2022. The sequel is also scheduled to show during the Nashville Film Festival 2022, Sept. 29-Oct. 2.
Along with the sequel coming out, the production team (Shane McAnally, Sasha Alex Sloan, King Henry, Steve Summers) thought it was fitting to also have a remix to ‘9 to 5’. Kelly Clarkson joins Parton in the whole new arrangement of the song that slows down the original version to give it more of a moody feel.
