Finding Michael, the upcoming British documentary, is a joint production of Shine TV and The Natural Studios, a joint venture with Banijay. The documentary is directed by Tom Beard, whose previous works include the critically acclaimed The Year Earth Changed. The documentary’s executive producers are Jon Swain and Tom Hutchings for Shine TV, and Bear Grylls and Delbert Shoopman for The Natural Studios.
The documentary follows the story of Michael Matthews, who at the age of 22 became the youngest Briton to climb Mount Everest in 1999. Tragically, Michael disappeared just three hours after summiting the mountain and was never found. His brother, Spencer Matthews, who was only ten years old at the time of his brother’s disappearance, has always struggled to come to terms with his brother’s death.
More than 20 years later, Spencer receives a photograph of a body on the mountain that could potentially be Michael’s. Driven by the possibility of finally finding closure, Spencer sets out to Nepal to search Everest’s “Death Zone” alongside Nims Purja, a record holder for climbing all of the world’s 14 peaks. The team faces numerous unexpected challenges as they brave extreme altitudes of over 8,000 meters and rely on a 10-man search crew equipped with drones and the skills to go off the summit lines.
Finding Michael has been met with great anticipation and is set to premiere on Disney+ on Friday, March 3rd, 2023. Its unique storyline and exceptional production quality have drawn considerable attention from film enthusiasts and the public alike. The documentary is expected to be a thought-provoking and emotional journey that delves deep into the human experience of loss and the unyielding power of hope.
In 1999, Michael Matthews became the youngest Briton to summit Mount Everest. But three hours after he reached the top of the world, aged just 22, he disappeared into blinding snow and his body has never been found.

Disney’s Steamboat Willie is an animated short film that was produced by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks in 1928. It features the character of Mickey Mouse in his first-ever appearance on screen. The film is notable for being one of the first animated films to feature synchronized sound, which was a major breakthrough in the field of animation at the time.
In the film, Mickey Mouse is the captain of a steamboat, and he and his crew (including his girlfriend Minnie Mouse) encounter a variety of obstacles and challenges as they try to navigate the river. The film is known for its innovative use of sound, as Mickey’s actions are synchronized with the music and other sound effects in the film.
Steamboat Willie was a huge success upon its release and helped to launch Mickey Mouse as a major cultural icon. The film is widely regarded as a classic of animation and has been influential in the development of the medium ever since.
Steamboat Willie was not the first animated film to feature sound, but it was the first to use sound in such an innovative and effective way. The music and sound effects are an integral part of the film, and help to create a sense of rhythm and energy that was not present in earlier animated shorts.
In addition to introducing Mickey Mouse to the world, Steamboat Willie also established many of the elements that would become hallmarks of Disney’s animation style, including fluid character movement, expressive faces, and dynamic action sequences.
Today, Steamboat Willie is considered a classic of animation, and is often cited as one of the most important films in the history of cinema. It has been remastered and re-released several times over the years, and remains a beloved part of Disney’s legacy.
Mickey Mouse, piloting a steamboat, delights his passenger, Minnie, by making musical instruments out of the menagerie on deck.
