Beastie Boys and Spike Jonze Announce New Documentary
Beastie Boys’ Mike D and Adam “Ad-Rock” Horovitz, along with Spike Jonze, have announced a new documentary: Beastie Boys Story will debut on IMAX on April 3, followed by a global release on April 24 via Apple TV+. Jonze directed the movie and co-wrote it with Mike D and Ad-Rock. The project grew out of Jonze and the Beasties’ massive Beastie Boys Book, according to a press release.
“There are some friends you have lunch with so many times over the years, you know their order,” Mike D and Ad-Rock said in a statement. “Spike is one of those friends. And even when you don’t recognize anything on the menu, he comes up with something good for the whole table. Like when we wondered what to do when our book comes out... then Spike placed his order: You will put on a show for the children.” Spike Jonze added, “I owe Beastie Boys a lot. One time, they pulled me out of a burning ship, and another time they helped me cheat on my college exam to get into Florida State. So, it was a real privilege to get to reunite with them and help them tell their story.” Coming up, Jonze and Beastie Boys will release a photo book. The collection, called Beastie Boys, is out March 17. |

Hopefully we will be able to just buy the video (or rent) and not have to pay for a monthly subscription. |

Re: Beastie Boys and Spike Jonze Announce New Documentary
Yay!
And it is all over social media now: "“Wait, what!?! I just heard that Mike Diamond and Adam Horovitz made a movie about Beastie Boys and their lives growing up around a lot of crazy ass sh*t in NYC with Spike Jonze. Is that for real?" - Larry from Weehawken “Yes. It is for real. It's kind of a live documentary film, mostly filmed at our shows at Kings Theatre in Brooklyn last year by Spike and we think you’re gonna love it.” - Us Beastie Boys Story streams on Apple TV starting April 24 and a special cut of the film opens in select IMAX theatres on April 3. Lot’s more to come." And they have changed their Instagram name to be beastieboysstory Mike D and The Echo Chamber has made me get Apple Music. Better get to figure out what Apple TV is all about now. |

Re: Beastie Boys and Spike Jonze Announce New Documentary
I'm interested to see what footage they use. I was at the Philly show and the crowd was great but from what I heard the Brooklyn crowds were kind of lame. I have to imagine they want to bill the show as happening in NYC but if the footage was better in Philly I wonder if we'll see more of that venue.

Same here! A physical release is a must!
Ireland only has one IMAX screen as far as I know, and it’s a bit out of my way, but if they wind up showing it I’ll definitely go! |

There has to be a physical release or at least a download you can purchase. They can’t expect everyone to sign up to Apple TV+ or what ever it’s called and if they do it’ll just be for the free trail to watch it.
