Two years after Lewis Capaldi stepped away from the spotlight to prioritise his mental and physical health, the Scottish singer-songwriter is reportedly in discussions with Netflix for a brand-new documentary that will chronicle his journey back to the music scene.
The 27-year-old singer stunned fans in 2023 when he appeared on stage at Glastonbury and struggled visibly with symptoms of anxiety and Tourette syndrome. The performance became an emotional moment for both Capaldi and the crowd, many of whom helped him sing through the set. Just days later, Capaldi made the heart-wrenching decision to cancel all upcoming tour dates, explaining in a statement that he needed “to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order.”
Now, sources say Capaldi is in a “much better place” and is beginning to explore his return to music, but with a new, healthier approach.
A music insider revealed: “Lewis is in a much better place than he was in 2023 and is at a point now where he is thinking about returning to music. Everything is going to be different this time, so that he isn’t overloaded and his mental health doesn’t suffer. But he really wants his fans to be able to understand what he has been going through and where he has been for the last two years.”
According to industry whispers, the potential project with Netflix is still in early discussions, but the concept is already generating buzz. It would follow Capaldi’s highly praised 2023 Netflix documentary How I’m Feeling Now, which offered a raw, vulnerable look into the pressures of fame, his struggles with Tourette syndrome, and the emotional toll of life in the spotlight. The documentary was widely praised for its honesty and opened up important conversations around mental health in the entertainment industry.
“There are discussions about what form it could take,” the source continued, “but there will naturally be a lot of honest and vulnerable moments. It’s not been an easy time.”
While details remain under wraps, fans can expect a deeply personal and emotional follow-up that will not only document his return to the stage, but also shed light on the challenges he's faced and the resilience he's shown.
If the deal goes ahead, Capaldi’s story may once again inspire millions, this time, with the powerful message that healing is just as important as the hits.
