Unreleased Songs Revealed
Ozzy Osbourne secretly recorded two unreleased tracks before his death at 76.
The unfinished material is now said to be being considered for a Sony Pictures biopic exploring Ozzy 's career, personal struggles and decades-long relationship with his wife, Sharon, 74.
According to a music industry source, the recordings emerged during a particularly difficult period for the musician, whose deteriorating health increasingly restricted his activities.
The insider described Ozzy's enthusiasm for recording despite his physical limitations, explaining that Watt had helped create an atmosphere in which the singer remained creatively engaged.
They also suggested Ozzy recognized the potential for his unfinished recordings to contribute to a film about his relationship with Sharon and his turbulent musical career.
Sharon Has Yet to Hear Final Recordings
Sharon Osbourne has reportedly not heard the completed versions of the tracks.
The tracks reportedly remain incomplete, with their final production and arrangements yet to be determined. Only Watt and musicians involved in the sessions are said to have heard the material.
Even Sharon, who managed her husband's career for decades, has reportedly not listened to the completed versions because the final mixes do not yet exist.
A source indicated the recordings could eventually feature in the biopic, although no official release date or soundtrack announcement has been confirmed.
Ozzy's final years were marked by significant health difficulties, but he continued making music, collaborating with Watt on material that reflected his enduring enthusiasm for performing.
Sony Biopic Moves Forward
Jack Osbourne and Sharon continued developing a film about Ozzy's life.
Meanwhile, Sharon and the couple's son Jack Osbourne, 41, have continued developing a long-planned film on Ozzy's life, which is intended to explore both the musician's public persona and his private relationships.
The project is understood to remain in development, with Sony reportedly considering directors while work continues on the screenplay.
Casting has also become a significant consideration, particularly the challenge of finding performers capable of portraying the singer and his formidable wife.
Jack has previously suggested discussions have taken place concerning an actor who could play his father, although no casting decision has been publicly.
He said: "Conversations have been had, and we're very [excited] – if it all works out. It's gonna be awesome."

Sony reportedly considered directors for the long-awaited Osbourne family biopic.
Jack has emphasized the film should appeal to his father's devoted audience rather than pursue an experimental interpretation of the musician's life.
He said: "I have this mantra, and I always say it, when in meetings with my mom or doing anything with the family business. It's, 'Give the fans what they want.'"
Jack added: "We're doing the Ozzy movie with Sony, and I'm always saying in the meetings, 'We have to give the fans what they want.' We can't make this artsy, kind of esoteric biopic. No, we're not doing that, for many reasons, but it's not what the fans want."
Ozzy is famed for transforming heavy metal music, becoming one of rock's most influential and recognizable figures during a career spanning more than five decades.
Born in Birmingham in 1948, he rose to fame as Black Sabbath's frontman before launching a hugely successful solo career with hits including Crazy Train and Mr. Crowley.
Dubbed the Prince of Darkness, Osbourne became equally famous for his outrageous antics, battles with addiction and family reality show The Osbournes.
Despite serious health problems in later life, he remained a beloved musical icon, with his death in July 2025 aged 76 marking the end of an extraordinary rock legacy.
