The world is bracing for a fresh wave of Beatlemania. Netflix has officially announced MANIA, a highly anticipated documentary that will explore the life, music, and enduring impact of The Beatles — John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr — through never-before-seen footage and intimate interviews.
Scheduled for release in late 2026, MANIA promises to be more than just another retrospective. The filmmakers have reportedly gained access to rare archives, private home videos, and candid recordings, offering fans a deeper, more personal glimpse into the lives of the Fab Four beyond the screaming crowds and sold-out stadiums.
“There’s always been a mythology around The Beatles,” said the film’s director, an award-winning documentarian known for his sensitive storytelling. “With MANIA, we wanted to strip away the legend just enough to show the real people behind the music — their friendships, their struggles, and the incredible creative spark that changed the world.”
The documentary will chronicle The Beatles’ meteoric rise from Liverpool’s smoky clubs to global superstardom, while also exploring the cultural, political, and personal currents that shaped — and sometimes strained — their bond. Viewers can expect behind-the-scenes glimpses of iconic recording sessions at Abbey Road, private moments during their historic 1965 Shea Stadium concert, and rare conversations capturing their evolving relationships as fame reached unimaginable heights.
Importantly, MANIA will also shine a light on the individual journeys of John, Paul, George, and Ringo — their creative differences, personal dreams, and the weight of being part of a phenomenon that often felt bigger than themselves. Interviews with surviving family members, collaborators, and close friends will add fresh perspective to a story that continues to fascinate generations.
Early buzz suggests that MANIA will balance nostalgia with revelation, offering longtime fans and newcomers alike a new appreciation for why The Beatles’ music — and their message — remains timeless.
Netflix plans a global premiere event, complete with special guest appearances and a limited theatrical release in select cities before the documentary drops worldwide on the platform.
In a world still humming with Beatles songs, MANIA reminds us why, even after all these years, the magic of John, Paul, George, and Ringo still feels immediate, powerful, and absolutely unforgettable.
