A new upcoming documentary will focus on Paul McCartney’s post-Beatles career. The documentary will be directed by Morgan Neville and is tentatively titled Man on the Run.
The doc will focus on how Paul’s relationship with Linda McCartney became his bedrock in the post-Beatles era, leading to the formation of Wings and an incredible new catalog of musical achievements. It will feature never-before-seen home videos and photos as well as new interviews.
The film will be financed by MPL & Polygram Entertainment and presented and produced by MPL, Polygram Entertainment and Tremolo Productions.
Neville said in a press release, “As a lifelong obsessive of all things McCartney, I’ve always felt that the 1970s were the great under-examined part of his story. I’m thrilled to have the chance to explore and reappraise this crucial moment in a great artist’s life and work.”
Producer Michele Anthony added, “At its heart, this is a story of Linda and Paul’s enduring love and an artist finding his own voice after being in the most historic music group ever. Our film traces one of the most incredibly creative periods of Paul’s life which spawned a vital and legendary body of work that continues to impact people and culture in every corner of the globe. We are honored to present this story with unprecedented access to a treasure trove of material from Paul and Linda’s personal archive.”
