LOS ANGELES — From space shuttle missions to a hidden love story, “SALLY” rewrites what we thought we knew about an American icon.

Following a successful world premiere at Sundance, where it won the Alfred P. Sloan Feature Film Prize, National Geographic has unveiled the official trailer and key art for “SALLY.”

The critically acclaimed film honors the life and legacy of astronaut Sally Ride, the first American woman in space.

Directed by Emmy awardee Cristina Costantini, “SALLY” presents a close-up view of a pioneer whose influence reached far beyond the shuttle launchpad.

The documentary, for the first time, also illuminates Ride’s 27-year partnership with Tam O’Shaughnessy, uncovering an intimate aspect of a person who kept their life private.

“Sally was a true pioneera hero who shattered barriers for girls and women and redefined what it means to be a leader,” says director Costantini.

“I want the world to see Sally for who she truly was, passionate, private, ambitious, brave, funny, loyal, comfortable in her own skin and, above all, full of love.”

“SALLY” premieres June 16 at 9/8c on National Geographic and will stream globally the next day on Disney+ and Hulu.

The Walt Disney Company is the parent company of Disney+, Hulu, National Geographic and this ABC station.
