Prince Estate Seeks To Block Netflix Documentary

An Oscar-winning filmmaker has made a nine-hour Netflix documentary on the late music legend Prince, but it may never be shown.

Prince’s estate is in a legal battle with Netflix blocking the film’s release.

The estate has reportedly demanded changes to the documentary.

Two of the companies involved in the estate gave a joint statement to the Hollywood Reporter in September.

Primary Wave and Prince Legacy said in part quote:

“We are working to resolve matters concerning the documentary so that his story may be told in a way that is factually correct and does not mischaracterize or sensationalize his life.”

Netflix did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
