‘The Carters’ Trailer Previews Emotional Conversations With Aaron & Nick Carter’s Loved Ones

A new Paramount+ documentary will dive into the struggles behind Nick Carter and Aaron Carter’s rise to fame, and a new trailer for The Carters shows how much the highs and lows affected the people closest to them.

Told through the eyes of Angel — Aaron’s twin sister — the doc will piece together the Carter family’s “deeply disturbing path” through never-before-seen home movies and exclusive interviews with friends Melissa Joan Hart and Scout Willis.

In the two-minute trailer, Angel is heard getting emotional as she describes her brother’s troubles, as scenes of the Carters growing up weave through the screen. “Imagine being a child and working like an adult, and having your childhood taken away from you,” she says, before adding, “In our family, mental health disorders run very deep.”

The two-part project will give viewers a “deeply personal look at the extreme highs and tragic lows of a family propelled into the spotlight” by Nick’s boy band career with the Backstreet Boys and Aaron’s rise to solo pop stardom.

Aaron, Nick and Angel are three of five children in their family. They also had a sister named Leslie, who died of an apparent overdose in 2012, and another sister, Bobbie Jean, who died of an accidental overdose in 2023. Aaron died the year prior in an accidental drowning. Nick is currently embroiled in legal battles with three women who have accused him of sexual assault.
