Travis Barker Documentary Louder Than Fear Heads to Hulu and Disney+

Premiered at Tribeca, streaming Aug. 13, 2026, the film reframes Barker's 2008 crash through family testimony, archival footage, his account of PTSD.

Overview

  • The film debuted at the Tribeca Festival and will be available on Hulu in the U.S. and on Disney+ internationally starting Aug. 13, 2026.
  • Directors Justin Krook and Michael Dwyer followed Barker from roughly 2017 through 2026 to build a near-decade portrait centered on the life‑altering 2008 plane crash.
  • Barker recounts the physical toll of the crash, including severe burns and many surgeries, and describes long-term psychological struggles such as PTSD and suicidal thoughts.
  • The documentary uses family testimony and interviews with collaborators — including Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge and the late Taylor Hawkins — alongside archive footage to chart his recovery and musical career.
  • By foregrounding survivor’s guilt, sobriety and his family’s role in recovery, the film aims to reposition trauma as part of Barker’s artistic legacy and may prompt broader conversations about mental health and long-term care for survivors.
