🎥 BLACK & WHITE FOREVER: THE COLLINGWOOD STORY — COMING TO NETFLIX 🖤🤍
In a monumental announcement that has electrified the AFL community, Netflix has officially unveiled its latest sports documentary masterpiece — Black & White Forever: The Collingwood Story. This emotional, hard-hitting series will take fans deep inside the soul of one of the most legendary clubs in Australian sports — the Collingwood Magpies.
Set to premiere globally later this year, the documentary will explore Collingwood’s storied legacy, from its humble beginnings in 1892 to its evolution into a powerhouse of Australian Rules Football. With unprecedented behind-the-scenes access, candid interviews, and never-before-seen footage, Netflix promises a storytelling experience that captures not just the triumphs, but also the tears, turmoil, and timeless spirit that define the Magpies.
The series will follow the club’s rollercoaster journey through some of the most memorable eras in AFL history — from their early domination and fierce rivalries to the heartbreak of near misses and the sweet redemption of premiership glory. Viewers will relive iconic moments like the 1990 drought-breaking premiership, the unforgettable 2010 grand final replay, and the emotional resurgence under coach Craig McRae that brought the Magpie Army roaring back to prominence.
Beyond the field, Black & White Forever will also shine a light on the people who make Collingwood what it is — from club legends like Nathan Buckley, Dane Swan, and Scott Pendlebury to passionate fans whose loyalty runs deeper than sport itself. Through intimate storytelling, the series will explore what it truly means to bleed black and white — the pride, the pain, and the unbreakable community that stands behind every kick, every tackle, and every song sung beneath the MCG lights.
Executive producers at Netflix have described the series as “raw, real, and relentlessly emotional”, aiming to show the full spectrum of Collingwood life — from the locker room to the boardroom, from triumph to turmoil. Expect powerful moments of vulnerability as players open up about mental health, leadership challenges, and the pressure of carrying one of the most scrutinized jerseys in the AFL.
For fans, this documentary is more than a celebration — it’s a reflection of identity. Collingwood isn’t just a football club; it’s a cultural institution, woven into the fabric of Melbourne life and Australian sporting heritage. With narration from Australian film icon Eric Bana and a stirring original score, Black & White Forever is set to be a cinematic love letter to one of sport’s most polarizing and passionate fanbases.
As Netflix continues its domination of the sports documentary genre — following global hits like Drive to Survive and Break Point — this Collingwood story is poised to captivate not just AFL fans, but audiences worldwide.
The black and white stripes are more than colours — they are symbols of pride, resilience, and history.
🖤🤍 Black & White Forever: The Collingwood Story premieres soon on Netflix.
Because for the Magpie Army… the story never ends.
