After months of speculation and cryptic teasers across social media, Netflix has finally released the long-awaited YUNGBLUD documentary, The Untold Story: Behind the Chaos. The raw, unfiltered project dives deep into the turbulent rise of one of the most unapologetically expressive artists of his generation. Known for his explosive energy, rebellious spirit, and fiercely loyal fanbase, YUNGBLUD has never followed the rules — and this documentary shows exactly why.
Far from being just another celebrity profile, the film pulls back the curtain on the chaos behind the creation of a global movement. YUNGBLUD, born Dominic Harrison, is presented not just as a performer, but as a provocateur, a vulnerable soul, and a lightning rod for an entire generation searching for identity, connection, and meaning. The film offers unprecedented access to the highs and lows of his journey — from his early struggles in Doncaster to headlining stages around the world.
Audiences are taken into private songwriting sessions, emotionally charged rehearsals, and behind-the-scenes breakdowns during some of the most pivotal moments in his career. Whether he’s screaming into a mic or sitting in silent reflection, the film captures the real human behind the rockstar mask. Fans will be moved by the moments of doubt and elation, of chaos and clarity, that have shaped YUNGBLUD into the artist he is today.
What makes Behind the Chaos so compelling is its commitment to honesty. The documentary doesn’t shy away from YUNGBLUD’s personal battles — mental health, self-image, and the constant pressure to represent a generation without betraying his own truth. These issues are not dramatized for effect but are presented with care, framed through interviews with close friends, family, and collaborators who have seen his transformation firsthand.
Director Talia Greene, known for her emotionally resonant storytelling, brings a dynamic visual language to the film. The editing is frenetic yet grounded, matching the rhythm of YUNGBLUD’s life and the unpredictable energy of his concerts. Archival footage is layered with present-day reflections, creating a nonlinear narrative that feels more like a journey through his psyche than a traditional biography.
The soundtrack is, unsurprisingly, a highlight. Remixed and reimagined versions of some of YUNGBLUD’s most iconic tracks underscore key emotional beats throughout the film. Songs like “Fleabag,” “Parents,” and “The Funeral” are revisited with fresh intensity, showing how these anthems evolved from pain, protest, and personal truth. It’s an audio-visual experience that reminds fans why his music hits so hard — because it comes from a place of complete authenticity.
The documentary also explores the powerful bond between YUNGBLUD and his fans, affectionately known as the Black Hearts Club. Footage from global meet-and-greets, teary DMs, and even fan-submitted video clips help illustrate just how deeply he’s impacted people’s lives. It’s not just about music; it’s about creating a safe space for those who feel misunderstood, left out, or silenced.
In a media landscape often obsessed with manufactured personas, The Untold Story: Behind the Chaos is refreshingly unfiltered. It captures the messiness of growth, the price of vulnerability, and the drive to remain real in an industry that rewards the opposite. For anyone who has ever felt like an outsider, this documentary will feel like coming home.
Whether you’re a lifelong member of the Black Hearts Club or a curious viewer unfamiliar with YUNGBLUD’s world, this film offers something rare — a brutally honest look at fame, fear, rebellion, and resilience. It challenges the traditional narrative of what a rockstar is supposed to be and instead presents something far more powerful: what it means to be fully, painfully, and joyfully human.
Now streaming exclusively on Netflix, The Untold Story: Behind the Chaos is more than a documentary. It’s a manifesto. It’s a mirror. And above all, it’s a reminder that in a world full of noise, sometimes the loudest thing you can be is yourself.
