Heavy is the head that wears the crown, but the weight of expectation glided off Simone Biles’ shoulders after she scored another incredible haul at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. Her astonishing story and return to competition were documented in Simone Biles: Rising Part 1, and now Part 2 offers audiences a behind-the-scenes look at how Biles conquered the competition in Paris.
Simone Biles: Rising is a Netflix Original sports documentary chronicling the emotional and physical journey of Olympic gymnast Simon Biles’s return to competition and her triumph at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, where she won three Olympic gold medals and one silver.
Her medal haul at Paris brings Biles’s total number of medals at the Olympic games to eleven: seven gold, two silver, and two bronze. This incredible achievement now has her tied with Věra Čáslavská as the second-most decorated female Olympic gymnast and the current most Olympic medals earned by a U.S. gymnast.

“Simone Biles has unfinished business. She was one of the biggest stories leading into the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. But in sport, as in life, competitions do not always go as planned. And for Simone, the world had a front row seat as her private struggle with mental health exploded on the international stage forcing her to withdraw from the competition. Since then, Simone has put in the hard work: facing the difficult traumas of her past, learning to manage her mental health, embracing her journey, and in the process, rebuilding her gymnastics from the ground up. Her courage to soar knows no bounds as this summer, she plans to return to the Olympic stage once again to do what she has always done and be the best Simone that she can be. Because through it all, Simone still rises.”
