New film project about Ozzy Osbourne: DRIGHT FOCK, Search for director runs.
Almost two weeks after the death of Ozzy Osbourne, there are new developments related to the long -planned biopic about his life with his wife and manager Sharon. Already announced in 2021, it was quiet for a long time. Now Polygram Entertainment has confirmed that the work continues to run and that talks are currently being held with a possible director.
Recommendations of the editorial team
The film is being built in collaboration with Sony Pictures and the family -run production company Osbourne Media. Sharon as well as the children Jack and Aimee Osbourne are also a producer: inside. The focus of history should not only be Ozzy’s career as a rock legend, but above all his longstanding relationship with Sharon.
Screenplay author Lee Hall continues to work on the script
Lee Hall is still responsible for the script-the Oscar-nominated author, who already adapted Elton John’s life story in “Rocketman” (2019). The occupation of the film is still open. Osbourne himself said to “Consequence” in 2022: He would like a “relatively unknown” actor for his role, not a star like Johnny Depp, but someone who can “shape the figure” from scratch.
Publication date still uncertain
After Ozzy Osbourne’s death on July 22, 2025, interest in his life story has increased again. The musician died at the age of 76 from the consequences of a heart attack, accompanied by a coronary heart disease and Parkinson’s. In the days after his death, he was buried in a private setting on the family property, accompanied by close friend: inside like Elton John and members of Metallica. While fans are mourning worldwide, the film project is now becoming more important about the life of the “Prince of Darkness”. An exact date of publication has not yet been determined, but the story of Ozzy and Sharon seems on the way to the big screen.
Last honor for the “Prince of Darkness”
On July 30, a public funeral service took place in Osbourne’s birthplace Birmingham. Thousands of people went on the streets to pay the “Prince of Darkness” the last honor. Many fans put flowers on the Black Sabbath Bridge. The Osbourne family Kelly, Sharon, Jack and Aimee, got out of their car near the Black Sabbath Bridge to greet the fans personally. A day later, a private burial followed on the family in Buckinghamshire. Numerous companions and college: inside the music industry took part. Osbourne’s final resting place is reportedly on a lake on the family property.
