More than a year after his death, Ozzy Osbourne‘s fans can relive his final performance through an upcoming concert film.
Sharon Osbourne recently shared her reaction to Ozzy & Black Sabbath: Back to the Beginning, premiering Oct. 25 in theaters, adding that her late husband would feel like “one lucky son of a bitch” after seeing the documentary from director Ben Wainwright-Pearce (Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, George Michael: The Faith Tour).
“It was very hard to watch a lot of this film. I had to, but it was very, very hard,” Osbourne told Rolling Stone. “It’s bittersweet. It’s amazing. Everything about the show was amazing and just a joyous occasion and one that will go down in music history. I’m proud of that and that it was for my husband, and I’m so thankful to everyone that took part in it, for their time, their effort, their giving.”
Noting that Ozzy “was in hospital for a week in England” before the July 5, 2025 concert, Sharon recalled his doctors “advised us not to do the show,” but he was determined.
“They said it would kill him. We were all together and Ozzy said, ‘It’s not an option. It’s what I want,'” she revealed. “He said, ‘I know I’m dying. If I miss a few months of my life, I want to go this way. This is what I want.’ It was his wishes and we went through it. He said to me, ‘Another six months, what’s it going to do for me?'”
Ozzy died at age 76 weeks later on July 22, 2025, suffering a heart attack after living with coronary artery’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.
When asked what Ozzy would think of the concert film, Sharon surmised, “He would say, ‘How lucky am I?’ He goes, ‘I’m one lucky son of a bitch.’ And he knew it. He never took anything for granted, ever.”
The late Black Sabbath frontman’s family is also developing a biopic about him, five years after Sony Pictures and Polygram Entertainment were said to be in the works on a project.
