The portrait of a photography master formally reached audiences on November 11. Avedon, the documentary directed by Ron Howard, arrived on Netflix on November 11, running 1 hour and 44 minutes with an R rating.

The film traces the life and work of American fashion and portrait photographer Richard Avedon. Netflix says the film received unprecedented access to Avedon's personal archives, including never-before-seen stills, behind-the-lens footage and new interviews with his closest collaborators.

The film is produced by Imagine Documentaries and Fifth Season, in association with the Richard Avedon Foundation, with producers including Brian Grazer and Ron Howard. It premiered earlier at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival.

Alongside the streaming release, Gagosian's Beverly Hills gallery in California is showing Richard Avedon: Hollywood, an exhibition of 120 of Avedon's Hollywood portraits, through December 19.
