After announcing back in December that she would be releasing a new documentary chronicling her journey, Karol G unveiled the trailer for Tomorrow was Beautiful on Tuesday.
The video features various clips from the singer performing in front of thousands in packed stadiums to more intimate moments, including footage from her childhood and conversations with Karol as she opens up about her life, career, and rise to stardom.
“Karol G was told her dream was too big, that she was the wrong gender, and from the wrong place, to ever be a global star. But only fools bet against a Bichota,” reads a press release for the film. A synopsis also depicts the doc as a portrayal of “Karol’s rise from humble beginnings in Medellín, Colombia, to international stardom, as she proves the critics wrong with an electrifying, record-breaking stadium tour” and her “relentless work ethic” that “paved a path for future generations of Latinas.”
Tomorrow was Beautiful is set to release on May 8 and was directed by Cristina Costantini, who also produced Netflix’s documentary on famed astrologer Walter Mercado. It will be produced by R.J. Cutler, Elise Pearlstein, Trevor Smith, Cristina Costantini, Kristofer Ríos, Alex Simmons, Mariem Pérez. Additional producers include This Machine in association with Interscope Films and Bichota Films.

When announcing the news of her forthcoming project late last year, she shared a letter to fans on Instagram. “A story born from dreams that seemed impossible, fueled by unwavering faith,” Karol G wrote at the time. “My life, my work, my truth, and the powerful connection I share with you all,” she continued, adding that the documentary was a “dream come true.”
When speaking to Rolling Stone for a 2023 cover story, the singer reflected on her more than a decade-long career: “Life has shown me that so many things are possible. I have 10 times more ambition and vision than what I imagined.”
