Complex also notes that the series will make its way onto Showtime later this year.

Shangri-La is directed by filmmaker Morgan Neville, and will be executive produced by Rubin, Neville, and a number of others. The film will highlight his early days in the music industry, from co-founding Def Jam while in college, to working on albums by artists from all genres, including JAY-Z, Adele, and Johnny Cash.
