Directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Ezra Edelman, the project was in the works for five years before its recent cancellation.

Back in September, it was revealed that the release of Ezra Edelmen’s nine-hour documentary about Prince for Netflix was being blocked by the late icon’s estate due to its accusations of physical and mental abuse against Prince.

Netflix will no longer release a nine-hour documentary series about Prince after reaching a deal with his estate, according to multiple reports. Instead, a separate documentary is now in development that will include exclusive content from the late star's archive.
