Who Is Martin Mull? is scheduled to premiere on Netflix on October 7, 2026. It is a biographical documentary film about Martin Mull, not a season of a series. Netflix's announcement gives the date and the film's premise but does not specify a release time for Brazil.
When does it premiere, and what is the format?
The announcement published by Netflix on Tudum on September 24 includes Who Is Martin Mull? among the comedy documentaries scheduled for October and sets its premiere for October 7. The official title page also identifies it as a 2026 documentary and categorizes it under documentary and biographical films.
On the public title page, Netflix shows a trailer running 2 minutes and 50 seconds. That is the trailer's length, not the film's running time. The full running time and the time it will become available in the Brazilian catalog are not provided in the official information consulted.
What is the documentary about?
The film explores Mull's different artistic pursuits as a musician, comedian, television actor, and painter. According to Netflix's description, the story follows his changing career, from performances in folk clubs to prime-time sitcoms and art galleries. For viewers who mainly know him as Gene Parmesan in Arrested Development, the documentary also looks at his music and visual art.
The account combines Martin Mull's own voice with recollections from people who witnessed his career. It is therefore a biographical portrait of an artist, not a stand-up special or a fictionalized account of his life.
Who appears in the film, and who made it?
Bob Saget and Neil Berkeley are the directors credited by Netflix. The people expressly mentioned in the announcement include Steve Martin, Tom Waits, and David Alan Grier, alongside Mull himself. The names highlighted in the release should not be taken as a complete list of interviewees.
The credited producers are Sean Bradley, Tara Billik, and Neil Berkeley. Bob Saget, Kevin S. Bright, Morgan Neville, and Caitrin Rogers are listed as executive producers. These credits help distinguish the team responsible for the documentary from the people sharing memories of Mull.
How can viewers check availability in Brazil?
October 7, 2026, is the date on Netflix's announced schedule, but the public page consulted does not separately confirm availability for a Brazilian account. Practical confirmation depends on the title listing shown in Brazil's catalog, preferably while signed in with the correct region.
On release day, search for the original title Who Is Martin Mull? in the Netflix app or search feature and check whether its listing offers playback. Do not confuse an international public title page or trailer with guaranteed local availability, and do not assume a Brazilian release time that the consulted sources have not announced.
