Paramount+ has announced the premiere of a new documentary looking back on the last six years in the life of legendary rock artist Ozzy Osbourne, who lived with Parkinson’s, on 7 October.

Directed by BAFTA-award winner Tania Alexander, the feature-length documentary has been produced in collaboration with the Osbourne family. Detailing his numerous corrective surgeries, escalating health issues and the progressive effects of his Parkinson’s diagnosis, Ozzy: No Escape From Now delivers a brave, unvarnished and relatable portrait of a man, highlighting how Ozzy’s ongoing chronic pain impacted his mental health and informed the music he made during this period. 

Capturing Ozzy at home and in the studio, the documentary also covers his journey to play the epic farewell concert Back To The Beginning at Villa Park in his hometown of Birmingham on July 5, 2025.

Ozzy and Sharon wanted the funds raised from his final show to benefit people in Birmingham and the West Midlands, where Cure Parkinson’s will soon be funding trials seeking to slow, stop or reverse the condition. We were honoured to be one of the beneficiaries of the event, alongside charities Birmingham Children’s Hospital and Acorn Children’s Hospice. 

Ozzy: No Escape From Now was never intended as a posthumous film. However, following his death on July 22, 2025, the documentary now stands as a testament to Ozzy’s courage, wit, determination, and talent – qualities that ensure he remains a hero to millions around the world. 

We were incredibly grateful to be invited to a preview screening of this documentary. It is powerful, emotional and at times raw, particularly when the family talk about how they supported Ozzy with his injuries and his Parkinson’s. But it’s also so full of laughter, and warmth, and it’s a love story between Ozzy and Sharon. Huge thanks from everyone in the Parkinson’s community, to Ozzy and Sharon and all the family, for courageously sharing their journey with Parkinson’s, and raising funds and awareness to drive us faster towards a cure.
