Netflix has confirmed the release of Traced, an intimate new documentary that takes fans deep inside Madonna’s remarkable journey from her earliest beginnings with Warner Records to her reign as the undisputed Queen of Pop. The project marks her first documentary since rejoining her childhood record label, and it is set to offer a rare glimpse at the artist both on stage and behind the scenes.
Traced promises to deliver a treasure trove of archival footage, nostalgic stage moments, and exclusive behind-the-scenes content. The film highlights not just the hits that defined her career, such as the groundbreaking Like a Prayer, but also the struggles and triumphs that shaped Madonna into one of the most enduring icons in modern music.
Adding to the excitement, Netflix will also debut two special nostalgia-themed series, Becoming Madonna and Veronica Electronica. These companion pieces dive even deeper into her artistic evolution, tracing the path of a performer who never stopped reinventing herself while influencing countless generations of musicians and fans.
The timing of these releases couldn’t be more fitting. As Madonna reconnects with Warner Records and celebrates her decades-long career, these documentaries arrive to honor her legacy and introduce her story to a younger audience. Viewers will not only relive her dazzling performances but also discover the woman behind the spotlight—driven, fearless, and always one step ahead of the times.
Traced premieres October 20th on Netflix and Sky, with a wider release on YouTube scheduled for November 11th. For longtime fans and new listeners alike, it promises to be the definitive look at Madonna’s journey from Detroit dreamer to global pop phenomenon.
