Netflix has officially greenlit a monumental new docuseries that’s set to shake the music and documentary world to its core. Titled George Harrison: A Story of Grit, Glory, and Brotherhood, this in-depth exploration of the quiet Beatle’s complex life and legacy promises to peel back the curtain on one of music’s most mysterious and misunderstood legends.
Reported by ESPN — in an unexpected crossover of music and sport-style storytelling — the streaming giant’s latest project is being described as “unlike anything ever produced about a Beatle.” With a release date slated for later this year, this docuseries is already generating seismic buzz.
🔥 From the Shadows to Center Stage
Known as “the quiet one” of the Beatles, George Harrison’s story has often been overshadowed by the towering personas of John Lennon and Paul McCartney. But in this new Netflix series, viewers will get a raw, unfiltered, and emotionally charged look at Harrison’s artistic journey, spiritual awakening, and internal battles — both within the band and himself.
Sources close to the production say the series will delve deep into:
His fierce independence in the face of Lennon-McCartney dominance
The untold rift with Paul that “shattered friendships”
Never-before-heard demos and voice recordings
His life-altering trip to India and lifelong search for spiritual truth
Shocking private diary entries read aloud for the first time
🎥 A-List Team, Explosive Access
This isn’t just any documentary. Netflix has brought in an Oscar-winning production team, including legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese as executive producer, building on the work he began with George Harrison: Living in the Material World over a decade ago.
What sets this apart?
✅ Exclusive interviews with Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton, Pattie Boyd, and Dhani Harrison
✅ Never-before-seen footage from Harrison’s personal archives
✅ Access to Abbey Road’s private vault for unheard tracks and sessions
✅ Dramatic re-enactments of key moments in George’s life, told with cinematic intensity
“This will change how the world sees George Harrison,” one insider revealed. “He was a storm under the surface — quiet, yes, but never passive. And this series shows it all.”
💔 Brotherhood, Betrayal, and Breakthrough
Perhaps the most eye-opening part of the series? The emotional rollercoaster of brotherhood between the Beatles — the love, the competition, the betrayals, and the ultimate reconciliations. Sources close to the series describe one episode as “jaw-dropping… a tearjerker that exposes the final phone calls between George and John Lennon.”
There’s also reportedly a bombshell revelation involving Harrison’s nearly fatal 1999 home invasion — and how it changed his perspective on fame, fortune, and life itself.
🧘♂️ The Spiritual Warrior

Harrison’s deep dive into Indian philosophy and spirituality, his bond with Ravi Shankar, and his quiet devotion to Krishna consciousness will take center stage. Expect vivid recreations of his pilgrimages, insights from spiritual leaders, and rare footage from his travels through India, Sri Lanka, and Nepal.
In one scene, insiders hint at a shocking spiritual encounter that Harrison wrote about in a lost letter now recovered — a letter that may reframe how the world sees his artistic choices.
🎶 Music, Legacy, and a Final Message
With full backing from the Harrison estate, the series promises unfiltered access to his post-Beatles masterpieces — from All Things Must Pass to his time with the Traveling Wilburys. But there’s more…
