The new feature film documenting final months of the Black Sabbath singer’s life will premiere in October.
A documentary charting the final months of Ozzy Osbourne’s life is coming to streaming next month. Ozzy: No Escape From Now will be available to watch via Paramount+ from October 7. A trailer for the film, which includes interviews with Ozzy’s family and footage from his final “Back to the Beginning” hometown show in Birmingham, England, can be seen below.
Ozzy: No Escape From Now was directed by Tania Alexander alongside the Osbourne family. The doc is billed as “an all-access, intimate view of the rock icon’s six-year health battle as he fights to get back on stage one last time” and begins with Ozzy’s 2019 fall which aggravated injuries from a near-fatal quad bike crash in 2003.
Contributors include some of the biggest names in metal including Slash, James Hetfield, Tom Morello, and Billy Corgan, plus Ozzy’s Black Sabbath bandmate Tony Iommi.
Another documentary, titled Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home was due to air on the BBC in the U.K. earlier this month until a last minute decision saw it pulled from the schedule. The hour-long film will now air on October 2. Sharon Osbourne, meanwhile, is a talking head in the upcoming Hulu docu-series Into The Void, about the dark side of the heavy metal scene.
