McCartney hits the right note with Man on the Run
MUMBAI: He may have left The Beatles behind, but Paul McCartney never missed a beat. Man on the Run, a new documentary streaming globally on Prime Video from 25 February, takes audiences on a front-row journey through McCartney’s life after the world’s most famous band split up.
Directed by Academy Award-winner Morgan Neville, the film charts McCartney’s creative rebirth alongside his wife Linda, as the two form Wings and redefine what it means to start again under the glare of fame. Packed with never-before-seen footage and rare archival treasures, the documentary offers an intimate glimpse at the man behind the music, facing both artistic challenges and personal triumphs.
Produced by Tremolo in association with MPL and Polygram Entertainment, Man on the Run will first hit select cinemas before landing on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories.
But that’s not all, the film headlines a larger partnership between McCartney, Universal Music Group, and Amazon, set to roll out over the coming year. Fans can look forward to exclusive music releases, limited-edition merchandise drops, and even McCartney’s own commentary on Amazon Music.
The collaboration also coincides with the November release of Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run, his companion book, and Wings, a self-titled definitive music collection arriving on vinyl and streaming platforms. Add to that his upcoming Got Back tour across North America, and it’s clear Sir Paul’s still flying high.
