Spears fiancé has high hopes for doc

-

Sam Asghari has high expectatio­ns for Netflix’s forthcomin­g documentar­y about Britney Spears, his new fiancée, despite other films leaving “a bad after taste” in his mouth.

The actor, 27, took to Instagram to express his distaste for previous Spears documentar­ies and hopes the new one coming out Tuesday will be “respectful.” Asghari, who has a recurring role on the Showtime series “Black Monday,” got engaged to Spears, 39, after dating for nearly five years.

Netflix dropped the trailer for “Britney Vs Spears” last week. It arrives months after FX and Hulu’s “Framing Britney Spears” and “Baby One More Time,” and ahead of a Wednesday hearing that could finally see her father removed as her conservato­r after 13 years.
