Netflix subscribers were eagerly awaiting the release of the new docuseries American Manhunt: Osama Bin Laden, but the March 10 premiere didn’t happen, leaving many questioning the reason for the delay and when it will be available to stream.

On May 2, 2011, President Obama and his top officials watched on as Seal Team 6 invaded bin Laden’s compound in Abottabad, Pakistan, and fatally shot him. No Americans were lost in the mission. As Rob O’Neill of Seal Team 6 says in the doc, “We accepted death on this mission but it’s nice to live,” per Time.

Osama Bin Laden is now streaming on Netflix, but just how was the militant leader caught after nine years on the run

Netflix subscribers were frustrated when the documentary American Manhunt: Osama bin Laden did not premiere on the scheduled release date of March 10, 2025. The documentary's release date has been postponed without a clear explanation from Netflix.

Netflix has pulled the third American Manhunt docu-series from its schedule after initially being set for a March 10th release. A new release date has yet to be set, although we’re informed it’s still on the way.

American Manhunt: Osama bin Laden is a gripping, well-crafted documentary that will appeal to viewers interested in global politics, espionage, and contemporary history.
