Punky Brewster’s Soleil Moon Frye will explore teen years in the ’90s with Hulu documentary KID 90

Soleil Moon Frye will take another journey into the past with her upcoming documentary KID 90, which will premiere on Hulu.

The 44-year-old Punky Brewster star’s film features footage she shot in the 1990s when she was only a teenager, along with new interviews with some of her lifelong friends.

The new documentary will complement the upcoming Punky Brewster reboot that the actress will reprise her role in, which is expected to arrive on the Peacock streamer later this year.

Coming soon: Hulu announced Tuesday that it had acquired the rights to KID 90, a documentary directed by Soleil Mon Frye, 44, and based on camcorder footage she filmed as teen in the ’90s; shown in January 

Frye’s film was culled from hundreds of hours of camcorder recordings she made in the 1990s.

The documentary serves as a ‘blueprint of Frye’s life’ by incorporating voicemails, audio recordings and even entries from her diary with the footage. 

There will also be new interviews with some of the actress and director’s best friends, including David Arquette, Balthazar Getty, Brian Austin Green, Stephen Dorff and Mark-Paul Gosselaar.

‘I often wondered if things had happened the way that I remembered them and I finally decided to unlock the vault,’ she explained in a statement.

‘What started as a documentary about my friends and our lives soon became a coming-of-age story about myself that has changed me forever. 

‘I feel incredibly blessed to have had such amazing support by some of the most creative people, and I am enormously grateful to Appian Way, STX, and Hulu, whose belief in me as a director and artist and has been supported since the beginning of this project,’ she added.

Belisa Balaban, VP of Documentaries at Hulu, also weighed in on the project in the press release.

‘Soleil’s deeply personal film provides a window into her unique experience of growing up in the public eye, with all of its rewards and challenges,’ she said.

This is a captivating and compelling film that has been a work in progress since the ’90’s and has been literally coming together for the last 30 years,’ said STX’s Jason Goldberg, who executive produced the movie. 

‘What is remarkable is that, Soleil had the presence of mind to know how this footage might be used one day. She has such a natural eye for detail and a caring, loving approach to capturing the lives of the people around her. As a filmmaker, she has brought a unique voice to assembling that footage and recreating that era in this story as she depicts that time and place. This is a film that will resonate with anyone who grew up in the ’90s.’

Frye rose to fame as a child address by playing the title role on the iconic NBC sitcom Punky Brewster, which aired from 1984–1988.

Her character was a spunky young girl who was abandoned by both of her parents, forcing her to take shelter in an abandoned apartment.

The building manager Henry Warnimont (George Gaynes) eventually develops a friendly relationship with Punky, and he adopted her later in the series.

Frye’s style as Punky was highly influential, with many other girls adopting her mismatched shoes and bright outfits in the ’80s.

Later this year, her 10-episode revival of Punky Brewster will air on NBCUniversal’s Peacock streaming service, with Freddie Prinze Jr. playing her ex-husband.
