Dolly Parton’s Work Will Continue Through a Slate of Projects for Decades to Come, Her Team Says
Danny Nozell said Parton left a roadmap for unreleased music, products, books and campaigns that will guide official releases for decades.
On Tuesday, music icon Dolly Parton died at 80, leaving behind a "project roadmap" curated by her team to keep her legacy alive "for decades to come," manager Danny Nozell revealed.
Nephew Bryan Seaver confirmed the death on Instagram, while a representative later revealed the singer died after "bravely facing a brief battle with cancer."
Parton worked "until the day she died," handpicking a team over several years to build a "project roadmap" that will "ensure the many dreams she had yet to fulfil are brought to life."
Launching September 15, Dolly Dolls will debut online, followed by Cup of Ambition Coffee and the SongTeller Hotel grand opening on September 29 alongside the Life Of Many Colors Museum.
Beyond immediate releases, the pipeline features an avatar show, a musical documentary, a biopic, and an animated series based on Billy the Kid, according to reports from Deadline.
