A Raw Look Into Yungblud’s New Documentary
Yungblud has unveiled a deeply personal and emotional trailer for his upcoming documentary, Are You Ready, Boy?. The film offers fans a rare glimpse behind the scenes as the artist navigates a pivotal moment in his life and career.
Yungblud captured at the legendary Hansa Studios for his documentary.
Filmed in the Iconic Hansa Studios
Set in the historic Hansa Studios building in Berlin—a place where legends like David Bowie recorded classics such as ‘Heroes’—this documentary captures Yungblud performing his latest album Idols live for the very first time.
Director Paul Dugdale, known for acclaimed projects like Adele: One Night Only and Elton John: Live From Dodger Stadium, masterfully follows Yungblud through one-take live performances of each track. Beyond the music, the camera rolls as the singer wrestles with questions of identity and self-discovery.

The trailer reveals Yungblud’s vulnerable side as he admits, “I feel as though I am sailing uncharted waters,” and expresses the struggle of figuring out “who am I as an adult, as a man.” This documentary promises an intimate look at his journey of growth, making it a must-watch for fans and newcomers alike.
When and Where to Watch
Are You Ready, Boy? will be in cinemas on August 20 and 24. Tickets are on sale now, and screening information is available here.
Behind the Scenes: Yungblud’s Perspective
In recent interviews, Dominic Harrison (Yungblud) shared his reasons for creating the film. He explains, “With this album, I made a conscious effort to not over explain what it was about. This film will really show people what I was going through when I was making it. It’s a hell of a film. I watched it once, approved it, but I’ll never watch it again – It’s too uncomfortable.”
Director Dugdale also expressed pride in capturing Yungblud during this transformative time:
“The opportunity to capture Yungblud at such a turbulent but rewarding moment of change, was an absolute privilege. Dom gave himself completely to the filmmaking process, and I feel so proud of what we achieved together.”
Recent Highlights from Yungblud’s Career
Yungblud launched his fourth album Idols with a massive show at Milton Keynes Bowl during his second annual Bludfest. Recently, he stepped in to headline Belgium’s prestigious Rock Werchter festival after illness forced both Sam Fender and Kings Of Leon to pull out.
At Black Sabbath’s final concert at Birmingham’s Villa Park, Yungblud surprised fans with a heartfelt cover of Ozzy Osbourne’s ‘Changes,’ backed by a supergroup including Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme), II (Sleep Token), and Adam Wakeman (Ozzy Osbourne’s band member and son of Rick Wakeman).
Health Setbacks and Upcoming Tours
Although Yungblud had to cancel shows in Liverpool and Dundee due to tonsillitis, he left money behind the bar in Liverpool for fans to gather and enjoy in his absence—a thoughtful gesture showing his connection with his audience.
Looking ahead, Yungblud has a UK and Ireland arena tour lined up for April 2026, with stops in Dublin, Leeds, Cardiff, Glasgow, Birmingham, London, and Manchester. Later this year, he will also tour North America and Europe, continuing to build momentum.
