This Oasis documentary is leaving Netflix next month

Netflix has unveiled its list of titles that will be leaving the streaming giant’s platform next month, including a documentary about Oasis.On March 1, a number of films and documentaries will be taken down from the platform, including Supersonic, a 2016 film from director Mat Whitecross that documented the Manchester band’s rise from 1993-1996 during the height of Britpop.In a five star review of the film upon its release in 2016, NME said: “A spectacularly lairy new documentary, it’s a vivid look at the glory days of Britpop’s finest but also gently picks apart the torrid relationship at the heart of the band – that of lovers, fighters and brothers Noel and Liam…If you weren’t craving an Oasis reunion before, then this will have you begging for it.”Speaking to NME about a potential sequel to ‘Supersonic‘ previously, director Mat Whitecross said: “It’s just something that Liam said off the cuff. I remember when he came in for the interviews, he said, ‘why we stopping here? I’m enjoying it let’s keep going!’ If they were up for it I would love that.
