**Netflix Confirms Release of “New Era: It’s Time” — A Deep Dive into the Life of Iron Maiden’s Bruce Dickinson**
Netflix has officially confirmed the release of its much-anticipated multi-part documentary series, *“New Era: It’s Time,”* centered on Bruce Dickinson — the legendary vocalist, songwriter, pilot, and co-founder of the iconic heavy metal band Iron Maiden. Scheduled to premiere globally on the 25th of this month, the series promises an unfiltered and deeply personal exploration of one of the most dynamic and enigmatic figures in rock history.
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Jonathan Hughes, *“New Era: It’s Time”* traces Dickinson’s extraordinary journey — from his early days in post-industrial England to his meteoric rise with Iron Maiden, and his ventures beyond music into aviation, literature, and entrepreneurship. The series offers never-before-seen footage, intimate interviews with Dickinson himself, and rare archival material featuring his bandmates, family, and close collaborators.
Netflix describes the project as a “raw, emotional, and inspiring chronicle of resilience, creativity, and reinvention.” Each episode delves into pivotal moments in Dickinson’s life, including his battle with tongue cancer, his dual life as a commercial airline pilot, and the creative evolution that helped define Iron Maiden’s global legacy.
The documentary also explores the philosophy behind Dickinson’s boundless energy and intellectual curiosity — qualities that have made him both a heavy metal icon and a symbol of personal reinvention. Fans can expect powerful performances, candid reflections, and a deeper look at the man behind the mic who helped shape a genre and inspired generations of musicians.
With *“New Era: It’s Time,”* Netflix aims to deliver not just a music documentary, but an emotional odyssey through ambition, endurance, and artistry — celebrating Bruce Dickinson’s enduring legacy and the relentless spirit of Iron Maiden.
