Paul McCartney: Man on the Run (2026)

Man on the Run is a new documentary featuring rare unreleased music and footage from Paul McCartney. The film takes viewers on an intimate, vulnerable journey through Paul’s extraordinary life following the Beatles’ breakup and the formation of Wings with his wife Linda. Director Morgan Neville (20 Feet from Stardom, Pharrell Williams: Piece by Piece) chronicles Paul’s solo career as he faces emotional, artistic, and personal challenges while defining a new decade of music. Through unprecedented access to previously unseen footage, rare archival materials, and deeply personal interviews, the film captures a transformative era—one marked by reinvention, family unity, artistic risk-taking, and the iconic Wings years.
