Magenta Edge Films has released the trailer for Segal, a warm, intimate documentary about the life and career of actor George Segal. It arrives to buy or rent on major digital platforms, including Amazon, on November 17, 2026.
The story
The film traces Segal's path from a shy kid on Long Island to one of the most sought-after leading men of Hollywood's busiest decades. Along the way he worked with the likes of Elizabeth Taylor, Mike Nichols, Orson Welles, Barbra Streisand, Robert Redford, Goldie Hawn and Robert Altman, and the documentary looks back at films including Ship of Fools, King Rat and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
Who's in it
Segal tells his own story. The filmmakers recorded seven interviews with him, and they are joined by actors and directors who worked alongside him over the years.
Behind the camera
Vernon Davidson and Ryan Krayser direct, in their first feature together; both worked on The Goldbergs. The pair produce with B.J. Maier, who also edited the film. The directors say they watched Segal's entire filmography while making it. Segal premiered on the festival circuit, including the Sherman Oaks Film Festival in Los Angeles, before this digital release.
