July 9, 2025 — Los Angeles, CA A legend is returning to his roots. Netflix has just revealed a heartfelt new documentary titled Back to the Beginning, featuring the one and only Ozzy Osbourne, and fans around the world are already buzzing with emotion.
The first official poster, released today, shows a solemn and thoughtful Ozzy, his long hair and intense gaze hinting at a story deeper than fame or fortune. This isn’t your typical rock doc. Back to the Beginning is a reflective, raw, and deeply personal look at the man behind the myth.
Ozzy, now in his seventies, is opening up like never before. The film traces his life from the rough streets of Birmingham, where he grew up in a working-class family, to the birth of Black Sabbath a band that unknowingly created a whole new genre of music. But this story isn’t just about his success. It’s about pain, addiction, love, loss, and ultimately, redemption.
“Sometimes you have to go backwards to understand why you survived,” Ozzy says in one of the trailer’s emotional moments. “This is me, telling it straight.”
Throughout the documentary, viewers will hear directly from Ozzy, along with emotional interviews from those who know him best his wife Sharon, his kids Jack and Kelly, and his Sabbath bandmates like Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler. There will also be never-before-seen footage, old family photos, and letters that paint a fuller picture of a man who was both adored and misunderstood.
Ozzy’s recent health battles and his emotional performance earlier this year at the “Back to the Beginning” concert in Birmingham have already tugged at fans’ hearts. For many, that show felt like a farewell, a closing chapter of an incredible career. Now, this Netflix documentary feels like Ozzy’s way of saying, “Before I go, I want to tell my story.”
Netflix has confirmed that Back to the Beginning will be released worldwide on August 23, 2025. It’s expected to be one of the most emotional and revealing music documentaries of the year not just for rock fans, but for anyone who’s ever battled demons, faced loss, or struggled to find peace with the past.
This is Ozzy, not just the heavy metal icon, but the human being. A survivor. A father. A husband. A man who still has something to say.
And now, finally, he’s ready to take us back to where it all began.
