A documentary titled, Ozzy Osbourne: No Escape From Now, will premiere on Paramount+ later this year, with the film chronicling the heavy metal icon’s six-year struggle to recuperate from a series of health issues. The rock doc is directed by BAFTA-winner Tania Alexander, who began filming in 2022 during recording sessions for Ozzy’s double-Grammy-winning Patient Number 9 album. Cameras will continue to roll this summer as Osbourne prepares for his final performance with Black Sabbath on July 5. The film will feature personal insights from Osbourne, along with his wife/manager Sharon Osbourne, his children, and his music peers. “This film is an honest account of what has happened to Ozzy during the last few years. It shows how hard things have been for him and the courage he has shown while dealing with a number of serious health issues, including Parkinson’s,” Sharon said in a statement. “It’s about the reality of his life now. We hope that story will inspire people that are facing similar issues to Ozzy.” (Billboard)
