Lewis Capaldi has made a Netflix special that launches on the streaming site soon, and to promote the documentary, the singer-songwriter has dressed up as characters from Tiger King, Wednesday, Squid Game, Bridgerton, and more.
Scottish singer-songwriter Lewis Capaldi is one of the biggest music artists on the planet right now. His debut album – Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent – was the bestselling record of 2019 and 2020 in the UK.
His single Someone You Loved was also a UK Number One, while it reached the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 in America too, with his success and acclaim going international over the last few years.

The film captures Capaldi’s defining year, struggling to balance the familiarity of home, normality, and all he’s ever known, with life as one of the biggest stars on the planet, gleaning an intimate portrait of his unique character, hopes and fears in his own words. Digging beneath the popular clichés surrounding the most unlikely of popstars reveals a deeply thoughtful and self-reflective young man at a unique crossroads in his life as he carries the weight of trying to eclipse the success of his record-breaking debut album.
