Netflix Sets Nov. 27 Premiere for 'TYSON FURY' Documentary, Two Weeks Before Joshua

Before Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua finally share a ring, Netflix wants you to sit with Fury outside of one.

Netflix will premiere TYSON FURY, a feature-length documentary, on Nov. 27, exactly two weeks before Fury vs. Joshua streams live on Netflix on Dec. 11, according to Netflix's Tudum.

The film is directed by Lucy Wilcox and produced by Optomen, with George Waldrum as executive producer and Nick Hornby and Tina Flintoff as creative directors. It features interviews with Tyson, his wife Paris and his father John, plus never-before-seen archive footage. What's on Netflix lists the runtime at 90 minutes.

Netflix says the film traces Fury from childhood to the top of the sport, including his struggles with mental health and addiction, the loss of a child, and complex family relationships, offering what it calls an unusually vulnerable look at a life that has often played out in public.

The Kimster's read

This is fight promotion, and it's smart fight promotion. Netflix has the fight and now the backstory, and Fury is at his most compelling when the bravado drops. Whether it moves the needle against Joshua is another question, but nobody will be able to say they don't know the man walking to the ring on Dec. 11.
