WORLD EXCLUSIVE: First look at Usain Bolt's new film - 'I Am Bolt'

Usain Bolt's new documentary 'I Am Bolt' is set to hit the big screen next month, but we've got the first look at the trailer for the behind-the-scenes adventure with the world's fastest man.

Coming off a record-breaking Rio 2016 Olympic Games, where he solidified his Olympic legacy with gold medal wins in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay, Bolt has made a habit of making winning at the Olympics look as glamorous as possible.

But what might surprise people is the candid admissions from the Jamaican, that not everything is as rosy as it seems, as he fights the same anxieties as everyone else.

“I’m the type of person, I get nervous before my first race," Bolt says.

"Every year I worry, am I still fast?

"This year I’ve said, I’m having doubts, I’m not motivated, but then everything changed."

With his star shining bright on the track, the film gives viewers a rare look at exactly what goes into preparing for greatness, plus plenty of fun with the 30-year-old off the track.

“My aim with making this film is to show people how my life really is,” says Bolt.

“What I’ve been through to get me where I am today, the ups and the downs, and an insight into what I am thinking and feeling. I know a lot of people around the world feel like they know me already but I’m excited for everyone to see the real me in ‘I Am Bolt’.”

The film will premiere on November 28 in London and will be simulcast to cinemas around the world.
