In 2025, the music industry lost the legendary “Prince of Darkness," but fans are now set to celebrate his legacy through a long-awaited biopic.
The late Ozzy Osbourne, whose decades-long career reshaped the sound of rock and metal music, will have his extraordinary journey revisited in an ambitious project centered on his wild and intriguing rock ’n’ roll life.
Following reports surrounding the untitled Ozzy Osbourne biopic, the music legend’s son, Jack Osbourne, teased fans with an update hinting at the current status of the upcoming movie.
During his YouTube livestream on May 12, the reality star answered a series of questions from fans, including one about the biopic.
According to the 40-year-old star of The Osbournes, the project remains in the works and is “moving ahead,” with hopes of releasing it in 2028.

"I can tell you this: we are moving ahead,” he said, as transcribed by Blabbermouth, adding, “I was on calls today about it. The script is right there. We are good. This movie will absolutely happen. Realistically — I mean, look, we're already halfway through '26 — it probably won't come out until '28. But you never know.”
The media personality, who expressed his excitement for the soon-to-be-released film, revealed that they are securing key figures for the biopic, starting with a director.
“We're full steam ahead. We're about to start going out and getting a director attached,” he explained. “So, fingers crossed. I'm really excited. It's, yeah, very much been a labor of love, of course. But, yeah, I'm excited — I'm excited for everyone to see this film."

At the time, Ozzy Osbourne jokingly mentioned an A-lister’s name and revealed that he wanted Denzel Washington to play him in a biopic.
However, his son ruled him out of the equation, noting, “Sadly, it’s not Denzel.”
On the other hand, the focus of the much-awaited movie will be Ozzy Osbourne and his wife’s story, giving viewers a more personal look into the life of the music legend.
At the time, there were reports that the story would be written by the Oscar-nominated Lee Hall, who was behind notable movies such as Billy Elliot and Rocketman.
