The most-awaited documentary on the late artist and host of PBS instructional show The Joy of Painting is all set for its OTT release after 26 years of his death. The documentary titled as Bob Ross: Happy Accidents, Betrayal & Greed, will be streamed on Netflix from August 25.
Helmed by Joshua Rofe, the documentary will be reportedly narrating the untold and shocking incidents of the prolific landscape artist’s life including his legal battles and the betrayal by his trusted ones. The star painter is admired for his gentle and kind-hearted personality. The Netflix documentary will also cover the dispute between his son, friends and business partners that erupted after he died of cancer at the age of 52.
Even though many details are not revealed by the makers, the promising title and the disturbing trailer have excited the audience and his fans.
