From The Hollywood Reporter, August 29, 2025:

Amazon MGM Studios has picked up Man on the Run, the feature documentary directed by Morgan Neville that explores Paul McCartney’s creative rebirth after The Beatles’ breakup.

The move comes ahead of the movie’s premiere this weekend at the Telluride Film Festival.

Man on the Run, which is produced by Neville’s Tremolo banner, in association with MPL and Polygram Entertainment, will be released in select theaters and then hit Prime Video Feb. 25 in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.

The documentary is meant to be the centerpiece in a partnership between McCartney, Universal Music Group, and Amazon that will unfold over the next year. It includes the release of exclusive music and merchandise drops, and commentary from McCartney himself. And it will coincide with the release of his book, Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run, which will be available on Amazon and Audible Nov. 4, and McCartney’s Got Back tour dates across North America this fall.

Producers of the documentary include Neville, Chloe Simmons, and Meghan Walsh for Tremolo; Scott Rodger and Ben Chappell for MPL; and Michele Anthony and David Blackman for Polygram Entertainment. Executive producers include Caitrin Rogers and McCartney. […]

Neville had unprecedented access to previously unseen footage and rare archival materials to tell the story of McCartney’s transformative post-Beatles era through a uniquely vulnerable lens. […]
