Ozzy Osbourne Bids Farewell in ‘No Escape From Now’ Documentary Preview

## Ozzy Osbourne’s Journey Back to Music

For a brief moment, **Ozzy Osbourne** felt a spark of his former self as he returned to his musical roots. The official trailer for the upcoming documentary, *Ozzy: No Escape From Now*, reveals the Prince of Darkness grappling with health challenges that hindered his ability to properly bid farewell to his fans.

### The Documentary’s Insight

Scheduled for release on October 7, the Paramount+ film chronicles Osbourne and his family’s experiences with various medical issues, including the serious incident where he broke his neck. According to his son, Jack Osbourne, the subsequent surgery worsened his father’s condition. However, recording music seemed to be a healing balm. “I took dad to the studio every single day,” shared Kelly Osbourne. “He’d get comfortable, and it was like the magic would begin.”

### A Final Musical Note

The trailer features scenes of Osbourne recording the title track for *Patient Number 9*, his thirteenth and final studio album, released in 2022. Tragically, the metal icon passed away earlier this summer at the age of 76. The news of his death arrived on July 22, shortly after Osbourne fulfilled his wish to say goodbye during an all-star tribute concert called *Back to the Beginning*.

### Resilience Amid Challenges

“I’m not good at being sick,” Osbourne candidly expressed in the trailer. “I belong up there, you know.” Sharon Osbourne introduced the idea for the documentary, emphasizing that if he were to return to live performances, it would be as the old Ozzy.

### Sharon’s Reflections

In a statement released in February, Sharon shared insights about the documentary, which began filming in 2022 under the direction of Tania Alexander. “This film offers a truthful portrayal of Ozzy’s journey in recent years,” she noted. “It highlights the strength he has shown while facing serious health challenges, including Parkinson’s. Our aim is to inspire those encountering similar struggles.”

### A Special Farewell Concert

During his final concert in July, Osbourne appeared on stage in a leather chair and performed classics like “I Don’t Know,” “Mr. Crowley,” and “Crazy Train.” Despite concerns regarding his vocal abilities due to his health issues, he dedicated himself to preparing for this poignant farewell.

### A Life Well Lived

“If my life’s coming to an end, I really can’t complain,” Osbourne reflected in the trailer. “I had a great life.”
