In 2024, Australian Olympian Rachael Gunn took the world by shitstorm. Competing in the newly introduced breaking section of the Paris Summer Olympics under the stage name Raygun, the B-girl sparked nuclear levels of mockery and ire for her hilariously misguided performance, which involved at least a few moves stolen from Summer Heights High’s Mr. G. Soon, in an achievement that most elite athletes never reach, she’ll be the subject of her own sports documentary.
Netflix has released the trailer for Untold Raygun: Breaking Badly, in which she’ll tell her side of the story — thankfully through the medium of talking rather than interpretive dance. In a beautiful moment in the trailer, the documentarian asks Gunn’s parents whether they’d ever associate the words “Olympian” and “Rachael” growing up, which causes her father to burst out in raucous laughter while her deadpan mother just says, “Never.” The new installment of the Untold series premieres on September 1. Hop to it.
