Christian Simoneau, Hugo Alarie-Blondin and Stephane Laporte are serving as executive producers of the documentary, which is tentatively titled 'Among the Uprising Trees,' reported Variety.

Suzuki was the subject of the 2010 NFB documentary 'Force of Nature' by the Canadian filmmaker Sturla Gunnarsson, which won the People's Choice Award for Documentaries at the Toronto Festival that year.

According to Variety, the new biopic will recount Suzuki's childhood and key personal and public events that shaped his path as an environmental activist.

"What impressed me most when talking to Suzuki about potential angles is his connection to his father, who inspired his love of nature and the outdoors and pushed him to stay true to what he believes," Noël told Variety on Saturday.

"Suzuki has a complex relationship to authority in Canada that comes from both his strong connection to the land and a sentiment of rejection from his family's experience of internment," added Noel as quoted by Variety.

Noël has produced numerous features, documentaries, and television series. In addition to 'Stereo Girls,' his Cannes and Venice premiering films include 'Fatima,' 'Early Winter', and 'It Must Be Heaven.'

The Suzuki biopic producers hope to shoot in late 2026 or early 2027, with a theatrical release in late 2027 or early 2028, reported Variety. (ANI)
