Netflix bosses have cancelled the release of a new documentary about Prince.

The late pop icon was set to be the subject of the nine-hour feature, but journalists at The New York Times reported last September that the executors of the Purple Rain hitmaker’s estate were attempting to block Ezra Edelman’s film from appearing on the streaming platform.

Representatives for The Prince Estate previously claimed it misrepresented the artist – who died of an accidental fentanyl overdose in April 2016, aged 57 – and in a new statement, they revealed they’ll now collaborate with Netflix on a new project featuring exclusive footage.

Edelman has not yet commented on the news, but representatives for The Prince Estate shared a montage oh photos on Instagram, set to his 1982 song, Free, celebrating the move.

“The Vault Has Been Freed. #FREE,” they enthused in the caption.

The Prince Estate is jointly controlled by Primary Wave Music and Prince Legacy.
