A documentary series about global football legend and former England captain David Beckham is currently in production at Netflix.

The series will feature a mixture of unseen personal archive footage from the last 40 years as well as interviews with friends, family, and footballing figures who have been part of his journey.

According to the streaming giant, the project will go beyond the shine of stardom to explore Beckham’s humble working-class beginnings in East London, and the drive and determination that led him to become one of the most recognisable and scrutinised athletes of all time.

Sharing his enthusiasm for the series, David posted three photos of himself over the course of his career.

‘I’m excited to confirm that I am partnering with @Netflix on a documentary series about my life and career…,’ he penned.

‘The series will feature unseen archive, untold stories as well as interviews with the people who have been a part of my journey.’

The project is helmed by Academy Award-winner Fisher Stevens who serves as director and executive producer, along with Academy Award and Emmy Award-winning producer John Battsek.

Earlier this month, David marked his 23rd wedding anniversary to wife Victoria Beckham with a romantic trip on the continent.

The couple took to Paris, their ‘happy place,’ before making their way to Venice for the celebrations, and enjoyed a romantic gondola ride.

David and Victoria share four children together, Brooklyn, 23, Romeo, 19, Cruz, 17, and Harper, 10.

A release date for the upcoming David documentary has not yet been announced.
