However, Holmes's life took a tragic turn on the set of "Deathly Hallows (Part 1)" when he had the unfortunate accident that left him with a spinal injury. Radcliffe expressed his sorrow, saying, "It's not fair; he shouldn't have had to do those stunts."

The documentary also states, "When David needed help, Daniel and his closest stunt double colleagues rallied to support him and his family. David's unwavering spirit gave them strength and inspiration." Radcliffe adds, "Terrible things happened to him, but I don't want to portray his life as a tragedy. It's about how his life has affected the people around him, and that's far from being a tragedy."

Directed by Dan Hartley, known for "Lad: A Yorkshire Story," the documentary is set to premiere on Max on November 15th.
