Beloved 'Seinfeld' Star's Legacy Lives On in Ben Stiller's New Family Documentary originally appeared on Parade.

Ben Stiller is bringing his beloved parents Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara's incredible story to the big screen in an intimate new documentary.

The 59-year-old actor, fresh off his success co-directing the hit series Severance, has partnered once again with Apple TV+ for this personal project that celebrates his family's legacy in entertainment.

Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost takes viewers on a journey through his legendary parents' rise to fame and their “impact on popular culture,” according to Apple’s logline.

"I feel very fortunate to be partnering once again with the incredible team at Apple TV+, this time on a project that is very personal to me and my family," Ben shared in a statement.

"It's exciting to finally get to share it with audiences; and a great honor to celebrate my parents, both as I knew them growing up, and as I've come to know them in new ways through the making of this film."

The documentary will make its theatrical debut on October 17, before streaming exclusively on Apple TV+ just one week later on October 24.

Jerry and Anne first started out as a comedy duo before branching into solo careers during the 1970s. Jerry became a household name through his unforgettable roles in television classics like The King of Queens and Seinfeld.

Meanwhile, Anne showcased her range in acclaimed projects including the Awakenings in 1990, as well as memorable appearances on Archie Bunker's Place, Oz and Sex and the City.

The talented family frequently collaborated on screen throughout the years. Their first joint appearance together came in 1995's comedy Heavyweights.

Anne later joined Ben in his blockbuster hit Night at the Museum in 2006, while Jerry's final acting projects ended his career with father-son collaborations on Zoolander 2 and the animated special Zoolander: Super Model in 2016.

Anne sadly passed away at 85 in May 2015, followed by Jerry nearly five years later in May 2020 at age 92.
