Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington and Tatjana Patitz will all star in the highly anticipated doc that will air on Channel 4 in the coming months.

George famously didn't appear in the iconic video which was released in 1990 and sources close to the production said he will finally reveal the real reason why it didn't happen.

"Listen Without Prejudice was a real turning point in his career, and arguably when he really came in to his own as a solo artist.

"It still means so much to him today, which is why he's narrating it.

"He'll be heavily involved."

Listen Without Prejudice Vol 1. went four times platinum in the UK and sold millions around the world.

However, it wasn't necessarily an easy album for George to make and promote.

At the time, he was struggling with how then-label Sony wanted to market him following the success of his first solo LP, Faith.

Tensions rose after he refused to be pictured on the cover of the album or feature in the promos, hence how the iconic video for Freedom '90 came about.

In this exclusive picture obtained by The Sun online, George can be seen deep in discussion with Linda, who was a close confidante of the singer and remains a good friend.
