      Miss Americana Official Trailer. Video / Netflix

      Taylor Swift has released the first trailer for her highly anticipated documentary Miss Americana, promising a rare insight into her personal life.

      The 30-year-old superstar shared the clip on her Instagram with the caption, "It's been a long time coming."

      It looks like the film will document Swift's transition from country sweetheart to pop icon.

      It will also look into her highly publicised - and criticized - break ups with fellow stars Calvin Harris and Tom Hiddleston, as well as giving us a glimpse into her current relationship with Joe Alwyn which for three years, the pair have managed to keep mostly to themselves.

      Unexpectedly, the documentary also promises to get political - just as Taylor herself has been recently - as she speaks about the freedom of "not feeling muzzled anymore".

      In a voiceover for the trailer, she says: "Throughout my whole career, label executives would just say, 'A nice girl doesn't force their opinions on people, a nice girl smiles and waves and says thank you.'

      "I became the person that everyone wanted me to be. Nobody physically saw me for a year, and that was what I thought they wanted. I had to deconstruct an entire belief system. Toss it out and reject it. It woke me up from constantly feeling like I was fighting for people's respect. It was happiness without anyone else's input. I want to do this. I need to do to be on the right side of history. It feels f***ing awesome.

      "I feel really good about not feeling muzzled anymore. And it was my own doing. There's nothing that feels better than this moment."
