Netflix has reportedly commissioned a documentary about Lewis Capaldi and his rise to fame.
The 26-year-old topped the charts on both sides of the Atlantic four years ago with his track 'Someone You Loved' and followed it up shortly afterwards with his acclaimed debut album Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent.
Now Capaldi is gearing up to release the follow-up, Broken by Desire to Be Heavenly Sent, in May - and the documentary will chart the process of making the album, incorporating footage shot by Capaldi himself over the last seven years.
Speaking about the project, he said: "If the immense pressure of writing and recording a second album - that has to live up to the expectations of so many people I've never met while also attempting to eclipse the commercial success of my previous album - wasn't enough, I decided to film the process in its entirety for your viewing pleasure.
"I'm very excited to potentially capture the making of the best album of all time or, more likely, to permanently document the scorching of my dreams as years of my life's work is received like a pile of flaming shite.
"Either way, it's going to be lots of fun and will be lovely to have people along for the ride."
The documentary is expected to be released on Netflix later this year.
