Documentary 'Becoming Led Zeppelin' to Hit Theaters in 2025
The documentary 'Becoming Led Zeppelin', directed by Bernard MacMahon, will be released in Italian theaters from February 27 to March 5, 2025, distributed by Nexo Studios. The film had its Italian premiere at the 2021 Venice Biennale Cinema. It explores the origins of the British rock band and their rapid rise to fame within a single year in the late 1960s. The documentary features previously unseen footage and psychedelic music performances, narrated by each band member: Jimmy Page (guitar), John Paul Jones (keyboards and bass), the late John Bonham (percussion), and Robert Plant (vocals). It traces their individual musical journeys in the 1960s British club scene, culminating in their meeting in summer 1968. The film will debut in IMAX theaters in the US and Canada on February 7, 2025, before its Italian release.
