Netflix Announces Documentary on Ozzy Osbourne’s Knighthood by King Charles: ‘The Prince of Darkness Gets His Crown’

In a move set to electrify fans of rock music and royal watchers alike, Netflix has officially announced the production of a landmark documentary chronicling the moment Ozzy Osbourne—heavy metal icon and cultural enigma—received a knighthood from King Charles III.

Titled “The Crown and the Prince of Darkness”, the feature-length documentary will trace the surreal, emotional, and history-making journey that saw Osbourne, long dubbed rock’s wildest rebel, recognized by Britain’s highest honour system. Slated for release later this year, the project promises a deep dive into the legacy, impact, and redefinition of British nobility through the lens of one of music’s most misunderstood yet celebrated figures.

A Long Time Coming

For decades, fans and fellow musicians have called for Ozzy Osbourne to be knighted. His influence on global music, from the birth of heavy metal with Black Sabbath to his solo career and cultural crossover with The Osbournes, is nothing short of legendary.

The campaign to knight Osbourne had garnered significant momentum over the past few years, with petitions drawing hundreds of thousands of signatures. In late 2024, the dream finally became reality when Buckingham Palace confirmed that King Charles would bestow a knighthood upon Osbourne for his “services to music, entertainment, and British culture.”

“I never thought I’d live to see the day,” Ozzy said shortly after the announcement. “To go from the council estate in Birmingham to Buckingham Palace… it’s bloody mad.”

Netflix’s Vision: Chaos Meets Ceremony

The upcoming Netflix documentary will chronicle every phase of Ozzy’s path to knighthood—from the whispers inside the palace walls to his final fitting for the ceremonial regalia. With never-before-seen footage, exclusive interviews, and behind-the-scenes access to the preparations, the film aims to capture the contrast between Ozzy’s anarchic legacy and the poised tradition of the British monarchy.

The director, Academy Award-nominee Asif Kapadia (Amy, Senna), promises a “genre-breaking” approach. “Ozzy’s life has always been mythological,” said Kapadia. “To see him step into the historic halls of British royalty without losing an ounce of who he is—it’s a story about transformation, rebellion, and acceptance. And it’s hilariously British at its core.”

Moments from the Ceremony

While official footage of the knighthood ceremony is tightly controlled, Netflix confirms it was granted unprecedented access to document the build-up and aftermath. Early buzz suggests emotional moments, including a tearful Ozzy sharing a quiet moment with his wife Sharon outside the palace gates, and a candid encounter with King Charles, who reportedly told Ozzy, “I grew up with your music too.”

Clips released in the teaser trailer show Ozzy, looking regal yet unmistakably himself, muttering, “They’re letting me in the palace—are they sure about this?” before breaking into a grin. Another shot features Jack and Kelly Osbourne beaming with pride, with Jack noting, “My dad’s finally getting knighted—and I think somewhere, Satan’s shivering.”

Fans, Family, and a Nation Watching

The announcement has set social media ablaze, with fans across generations celebrating what many are calling a moment of cultural redemption. Black Sabbath bandmate Tony Iommi was among the first to offer congratulations, calling it “long overdue.” Meanwhile, Sharon Osbourne released a statement praising Netflix’s involvement: “This documentary isn’t just for rock fans. It’s for anyone who ever felt like they didn’t belong, and then proved everyone wrong.”

The knighthood has also prompted academic and cultural discussions about the evolving face of British honours. For many, Ozzy’s recognition signals a shift towards embracing the diversity of British contribution—not just in the arts, but in counterculture and rebellion.

A Soundtrack for the Ages

Netflix has confirmed that the documentary will feature remastered tracks from throughout Ozzy’s career—spanning early Black Sabbath hits like “Iron Man” and “War Pigs” to solo anthems like “Crazy Train” and “No More Tears.” There will also be original compositions made specifically for the documentary, blending orchestral arrangements with Osbourne’s signature doom-laden guitar tones.

Music producer Andrew Watt, who worked on Ozzy’s recent albums, said, “It’s like scoring the life of a mythic beast who became a knight.”

Legacy Sealed in Stone

With the Netflix documentary in production and the knighthood enshrined in history, Ozzy Osbourne’s story seems to have come full circle—from biting heads off bats to bowing before the crown. And yet, in true Ozzy fashion, he insists he’s not done.

“I might be Sir Ozzy now,” he chuckled in an interview, “but I’m still the f***ing Prince of Darkness. You can’t polish me up too much.”

As anticipation builds, The Crown and the Prince of Darkness promises to be a cultural moment unlike any other—a celebration of music, madness, monarchy, and a man who never stopped being himself, no matter where life took him.

Netflix hasn’t revealed the exact release date but confirmed a global premiere event will be held in London later this year, complete with a red carpet, live performances, and—of course—a bat-shaped cake.

Sir Ozzy Osbourne. Who would’ve thought? Apparently, King Charles did. And now, thanks to Netflix, the whole world will get to see why.
