Trailer For Director Spike Jonze's BEASTIE BOYS STORY Live Documentary Experience

Apple TV+ has shared a brief trailer for director Spike Jonze’s Beastie Boys Story, which is going to be a live documentary experience. Surviving members of the classic rock/rap/punk band, Mike Diamond and Adam Horovitz, will share the story of their band and 40 years of friendship.

The doc will focus on “the history and legacy of the group and its intimate, personal story. The project grew out of Diamond and Horowitz’s collaboration on Beastie Boys Book, published in October 2018.” That memoir paid tribute to the late Adam Yauch, who died of cancer in 2012.

So, what does it mean when they say this is going to be a live experience? It’s explained that "live portions of the documentary were taken from Horovitz and Diamond's recent show at Kings Theatre in Brooklyn; it was all part of a live tour directed by [Spike] Jonze that consisted of Q&A segments, readings, and guest moderators."

As a long-time fan of the Beastie Boys, I couldn’t be more excited to watch this. I’m sure it’ll be great! The doc will be released on AppleTV+ on April 24th.
