Netflix has just released the trailer for its latest Tyson Fury documentary, titled Tyson Fury. The documentary has been in the making since mid 2025 when Fury publicly announced the start of production. Unlike At Home with the Furys, the light-hearted, fly-on-the-wall docusoap that previously brought Fury to Netflix, this standalone feature-length film delves into the darker realities and personal sacrifices behind his success.

The trailer gives viewers a closer look at Fury’s battles with mental health, addiction and personal loss as he gets ready for the next chapter of his life.

The official trailer for Netflix’s documentary shifts the focus beyond Tyson Fury’s boxing achievements to the personal battles that defined his journey. It also revisits his rise to fame, including his relentless pursuit of a victory over Wladimir Klitschko in 2015.

"I'd achieved all my childhood dreams, but my whole point of existence had been taken away. I didn't want to live," Tyson shared.

The documentary trailer offered a glimpse into Fury’s life through candid reflections from his wife, Paris Fury. She admitted how terrified she was as she realized the man she knew seemed to disappear bit by bit. His father, John Fury, also shared his perspective. There were also unseen videos showing Fury's unconventional childhood to a career in the ring.
