The Three-Part Docuseries "Marilyn Manson: Unmasked" Will Reportedly Have a Limited Release in September 2024


Less than a year ago, in October 2023, it was officially announced that a three-part docuseries on Marilyn Manson was in production and due to be released in 2024. This docuseries is produced by Lightbox, co-financed by Channel 4 and FIFTH SEASON, and produced in partnership with Rolling Stone Films, with FIFTH SEASON also handling worldwide distribution rights. The last we heard was that it was shown to potential buyers in London in February 2024, with no news who the buyers were, if any.

Last week we were finally given word of what looks like to be a slow roll out of the docuseries worldwide. So far we have been informed by online sources that it will begin to be released on the following dates for the following platforms:

September 6 - Paramount+ Canada (available only to residents of Canada who subscribe)

September 27 - TVNZ+ (available only to residents of New Zealand who subscribe)

September 29 - Yle Areena (available to residents of Finland) 
 
As far as we know, in September 2024 only those with access to those channels in those countries will have access to the docuseries. More roll outs should be expected in October. There is no word of the docuseries showing on Channel 4 as of now, nor anywhere in the United States.
