First official Led Zeppelin documentary announced
    2019-05-10  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

A NEW documentary on legendary rock band Led Zeppelin is heading to the Cannes market.

Bernard MacMahon, the director of the Emmy-nominated music documentary series “American Epic,” is helming the as-yet-untitled doc, which will feature new interviews with band members Jimmy Page, Robert Plant and John Paul Jones, as well as rare archival interviews with the late John Bonham.

Currently in postproduction, the documentary is billed as the “definitive telling of the birth of the world’s biggest-selling rock band” and will be told solely from the band’s perspective, with never-before-seen archive film footage and photographs and state-of-the-art audio transfers of the band’s music.

Both Page and Plant said watching “American Epic,” which traces the roots of American recorded music of the Roaring Twenties, convinced them to sign on to MacMahon’s film.

“When I saw everything Bernard had done both visually and sonically on the remarkable achievement that is ‘American Epic,’ I knew he would be qualified to tell our story,” Page said in a statement.

“The time was right for us to tell our own story for the first time in our own words,” added Jones. “I think that this film will really bring this story to life.”

The team behind “American Epic” is on board for the Led Zeppelin doc, including writer and producer Allison McGourty, editor Dan Gitlin and sound supervisor Nicholas Bergh. McGourty, MacMahon, Duke Erikson and Ged Doherty are producing the film, with Peter Saraf and Marc Turtletaub as executive producers.
