LEWIS Capaldi will feature in a “raw and honest” Netflix documentary about his life.
The 26-year-old Glasgow-born star is “pretty terrified” for people to see the “all access” film which has been in the making for four years.
The feature length music documentary titled Lewis Capaldi: How I’m Feeling Now will see him struggling to balance the familiarity of home and becoming a major celebrity.
It is set to be released globally on Netflix on April 5 following five back-to-back sold out global headline tours, screaming fans, and history-making chart success.

The footage sees the Someone You Loved singer return back to his parents' house to begin work on his highly anticipated second album.
It follows him attempting to reconnect with his old life along with the family and friends he left behind.
The documentary arrives ahead of his highly anticipated second album Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent, which is out on May 19.
It promises to show an intimate portrait of his unique character, hopes, and fears in his own words.
Lewis said: “I’m pretty terrified for people to see this documentary if I’m quite honest, but I’m also really proud of it. I hope you enjoy it.”
Sam Bridger, head of music film at Pulse Films, said: “This started out as a film about the process of creating the ‘difficult second album’, but ended up being an astonishingly unguarded portrait of the pressures of fame on young shoulders, exploring one of the great conversations of our age - mental health.
“Such unfiltered access to one of the biggest stars on the planet is testament to the bravery of Lewis and his team who invited us into their world, and the incredible trust and storytelling instincts of director Joe Pearlman, producer Alice Rhodes and the production team."
Stuart Souter, BMG Films vice president, said: “This is much more than just a music film. With the support of his family, Lewis has opened up in a unique way. Just like his music, we are confident that it will connect with people around the world."
