WATCH: New trailer for Man on the Run - film exploring Paul McCartney's post-Beatles music with Wings - out now
The new trailer for director Morgan Neville's documentary film Paul McCartney: Man on the Run is out now.
What happens when you wake up the morning after leaving the most important rock band of all time?
Paul McCartney: Man on the Run is the intimate new documentary from Oscar, Emmy and Grammy Award-winning director Morgan Neville, which focuses on McCartney’s musical journey after The Beatles split in 1970.
Following the seismic split, in April 1970 Paul released his first solo album, McCartney. When asked what he’d do next, he said his only plan was to grow up.
Paul McCartney: Man on the Run captures Paul’s transformative decade in the wake of The Beatles’ break-up and the rise of his new band Wings. Through stunning archival footage, his late wife Linda McCartney’s exceptional photographs, interviews with Paul, Linda, daughters Mary and Stella McCartney, a number of Wings band members, John Lennon's son Sean Ono Lennon, Rolling Stones singer Sir Mick Jagger, Chrissie Hynde, and more, the film examines this time through a uniquely vulnerable lens.
