The lifelong Hornets fan became club chairman in 1976 and was at the helm for 14 years until he sold his 93 per share to Jack Petchey for £3.5 million in 1990.
During his time at the club, the team reached the 1984 FA Cup final, losing out to Everton at Wembley.
The new documentary chronicles the singers five-decade career, featuring unseen footage and a look into the 77-year old's personal diaries.
Sir Elton reflects on his life and career as the documentary builds to his farewell concert at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles.
The film, directed by R.J. Cutler and David Furnish, will also feature a new original song by Sir Elton.
Following a short run in UK and US cinemas next month, the documentary will be released on Disney + on December 13.
