Led Zeppelin are one of the biggest bands in rock history, but they're yet to have an authorised documentary about them.

All that is about to change with the launch of the upcoming Becoming Led Zeppelin.

Bernard MacMahon's film marks the first time the band themselves have agreed to take part in a film biographic film.

Even before the movie was completed it was getting fans very excited, with work-in-progress footage shown at the Venice Film Festival way back in 2021 earning a rapturous reception.

A new trailer has now been launched for the film, which you can watch at the top of the page.

The film premieres in the United States and Canada on February 7, 2025.

It tells the story of Led Zeppelin getting together in the 1960s and will apparently end in 1970 with the band at their peak, just three albums in to their nine album career.

As well as new interviews with Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Robert Plant, the film features previously unheard audio of late drummer John Bonham and never-before seen footage of early concerts.
