A docuseries titled A Beautiful Obsession will examine Pep Guardiola’s final chapter at Manchester City, NDTV Sports reports. The project is directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker Kevin Macdonald alongside City Studios’ John De Caux. Macdonald is also producing it for Plan B and Workerbee, a Banijay UK company.
The reports do not provide a release date, streaming platform or details of the episodes. They describe the series as a look at Guardiola’s time at City, but offer no further information about its access, scope or treatment of the club’s recent campaigns.
Football documentaries often sell a manager’s career as either genius or crisis, and both versions can flatten a complicated job. A film made with City Studios will need to show more than Guardiola’s public image and famous matches. Its value will depend on access, criticism and context. The clearest test is whether it includes difficult decisions, not just polished victories.
