Netflix drops Russell Brand documentary teaser
Netflix has shared a brief teaser for "Russell Brand: Open Secret", a documentary that will cover the comedian's rise to fame and recent conviction for rape and sexual assault.
Netflix will debut a documentary about Russell Brand, titled Russell Brand: Open Secret, following the actor's recent conviction for rape and sexual assault. The 10-year prison sentence was handed down to Brand in November 2026 after a joint investigation by The Times, The Sunday Times, and Channel 4 Dispatches, which coincided with the airing of Channel 4's documentary Russell Brand: In Plain Sight.
Directed by Olivia Isaacs and produced by 72 Films, the film will feature interviews and archival footage tracing Brand's ascent to stardom. However, the release date for Russell Brand: Open Secret remains undetermined at this time.
For those who have endured sexual abuse, confidential assistance can be reached via the National Sexual Assault hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673) or accessed online at online.rainn.org.
