Netflix made the announcement at the Edinburgh TV Festival Wednesday alongside those for other documentaries about the British boy band Take That, millionaire celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, a 2005 bombing attack in London and the world's biggest sports promoters.
The new Beckham series is still untitled but promises to chronicle the star's career from a member of the popular Spice Girls girl band in the 1990s to the creator of her own fashion label and beauty business.
No director for the series has been announced, but Nicola Howson ("Beckham") and Julia Nottingham (“Skate Kitchen”) will produce.
Victoria Beckham unexpectedly stole the show last year after her inclusion in the "Beckham" docuseries about her husband's rise to sports fame led to several viral moments, including when her husband pushed her to reveal she was not in fact raised among the working class and was instead taken to school each day in a Rolls-Royce.
The series saw the couple also open up about David Beckham's alleged infidelity in the early 2000s, but the athlete stopped short of admitting an affair.
