Highly anticipated on Netflix from January 27, 2026, Take That is a British documentary series shedding light on one of the most iconic boy bands in pop history. Spanning three episodes, the series revisits over 35 years of the group's journey, featuring a wealth of rare archive footage, personal documents, and fresh interviews with band members Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, and Mark Owen.
From humble beginnings to dominating global charts, the series chronicles the spectacular rise of Take That, who became a cultural phenomenon in the 1990s. The documentary delves into a journey defined by immense success, including 12 UK number-one singles and over 45 million albums sold worldwide.
Beyond fame, Take That delves into the internal tensions and the sudden breakup of the band, before focusing on their reunions, which have become one of the most remarkable comebacks in British music history. Told from a personal perspective, the series highlights the human connections, the camaraderie, and also the rifts that have shaped the group's identity.
The official trailer will be added as soon as it’s released by Netflix.
Built from never-before-seen archival footage spanning three decades, the documentary takes a chronological and personal approach. It offers an inside look into the world of fame, capturing moments of media chaos and periods of self-reflection, all while placing Take That within the broader context of British pop history.
The series continues the trend of recent acclaimed music documentaries focused on iconic bands, much like those dedicated to Oasis or Spice Girls. It also captures the evolution of the boy band—a manufactured pop product transforming into a group with a lasting artistic identity.
Appealing to both long-time fans and viewers eager to understand the inner workings of musical stardom, Take That offers a candid and heartfelt story. The tone emphasizes emotion and authenticity, neither shying away from the darker moments nor the impact of intense media scrutiny.
