Before
the Backstreet Boys and BTS, there was Take That. The British boy band Take That is coming out with the self-titled documentary for Netflix in the new year. The new three-part documentary series will take fans behind the scenes on some of the biggest moments and include some never-before-seen footage of their time together. The current members Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, and Mark Owen are joined by original bandmates Jason Orange and Robbie Williams, who also participate in this intimate look back. Check out the first-look trailer of Take That below.
Take That documentary series to premiere in 2026
On X (formerly Twitter), Netflix announced, "TAKE THAT, a new 3-part documentary series featuring rare archive and never-before-seen footage of the UK’s most iconic boy band, launches globally on Netflix on 27 January!" The footage that will be depicted in the upcoming series has been captured over 35 years.
The nearly one-minute trailer opens with Mark Owen in a voiceover stating, "From the beginning, there was something within us that wanted to prove something." His bandmate Gary Barlow adds, "Nothing beats being in a band." Owen, Barlow, and other bandmates Jason Orange and Howard Donald are gearing up backstage for a concert in the 1990s. Later the
most infamous member, Robbie Williams, joins them as he tells the camera cheekily, "We all kiss before the show… in a butch way." The official synopsis for the documentary series stated, "From their early beginnings as five piece formed in Manchester to becoming pop superstars, relive the camaraderie, chaos, and resilience that fueled their meteoric rise, dramatic split, and one of the greatest comebacks in British music history. Told in their own words, this is the deeply personal and definitive story of Take That." Produced by Fullwell Entertainment, the
Take That documentary series is directed by David Soutar. Minus Williams, the band is still active today and is about to set off on a 17-date tour called Circus Live. At the height of their fame, they had 12 number one singles and sold over 45 million records worldwide.
