American Idol isn’t the only TV series Jon will be appearing in.

On Friday, April 26, Bon Jovi’s four-part docuseries, Thank You Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story, is set to premiere on Hulu.

“As thrilling as the story of a once-in-a-lifetime talent is, it is even more rare that a legend like Jon Bon Jovi lets the world into his most vulnerable moments while he’s still living them,” the description of the docuseries, directed and executive produced by Gotham Chopra, read.

The docuseries will feature interviews with current and past band members like Jon, David Bryan and Richie Sambora. It will also provide insight into the band’s past with never-before-seen or heard photos and demo songs.

But cameras also began following the band in February 2022 as Jon dealt with a vocal issue that threatened his future as a musician.

On Wednesday, April 10, during a Screening and Q+A event for Thank You Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story at Aero Theater in Santa Monica, the Bon Jovi frontman opened up about his singing abilities after undergoing vocal cord surgery in 2022.

“What you saw on film was shot last March in that scene when I couldn’t sing well, or two years ago when I was on the road,” Jon said. “I’m well into the recovery. I’m more than capable of singing. It’s just that for me, the bar is two and a half hours a night, four nights a week, before I say we’re going to go and do any shows.”

“So I’m well back on the road to recovery, not a day of it’s easy. Every day is a struggle, but I’m more than capable of doing it again,” he added, joking, “I’m f—ing Bon Jovi!”

Jon revealed in February that he was in “the process of healing” after undergoing vocal surgery, noting that he couldn’t understand when his “craft was being taken away” from him.

“I pride myself on having been a true vocalist,” he explained. “I’ve sung with Pavarotti. I know how to sing. I’ve studied the craft for 40 years. I’m not a stylist who just barks and howls. I know how to sing.”

Jon continued: “So when God was taking away my ability, and I couldn’t understand why, I jokingly have said the only thing that’s ever been up my nose is my finger — you know, so there’s no reason for any of this.”
