The two-part miniseries will be a moving tribute to the iconic actress’ life, following her journey from Australian sweetheart to international superstar.
Olivia Newton-John recently announced that she’s battling breast cancer, which has spread to her back or ‘metastasized to the sacrum.’ The heartbreaking news comes 25 years after she was first diagnosed with the disease.
Olivia’s daughter, Chloe Lattanzi, 31, previously revealed that her superstar mum will be using both natural remedies and modern medicine to combat the disease.
“She will be using medicine that I often talk about,” the singer and actress wrote on Instagram. “CBD oil! (Cannabis has scientifically proven properties to inhibit cancer cell growth) and other natural healing remedies plus modern medicine to beat this.”

Chloe, who recently moved to the US state of Oregon to start a business in marijuana farming with fiancé James Driskill, also vowed to join in the fight against the “insidious” disease.
“Cancer is the disease of our generation and it is part of my and my mother’s quest to beat this insidious monster,” she wrote. “We both love you all, and anyone fighting this disease you can beat it. Look for natural remedies as well as what modern medicine can offer.”
“My mom is so powerful she will beat this in no time,” she added. “All my love to you. And I wish you health wealth and happiness.”
We continue to wish Olivia all the very best in her recovery.
