"Becoming Led Zeppelin," a Rocumentary that chronicles the origins and rise of the legendary English rock band.

Coming to the massive IMAX screen in 2025.

Sony Picture Classics plans to release "Becoming Led Zeppelin" only in IMAX on Feb. 7.

What Can We Expect With This Led Zeppelin Film?

The visual power of IMAX, paired with the film's powerful Led Zeppelin soundtrack, will create an audio/visual sensation in the body and transport the movie viewer's experience. 

It feels like they are there in the venues with Led Zeppelin.

"Becoming Led Zeppelin" goes back to the band's early days with never-before-seen footage and commentary from the notoriously private band.

Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and John Bonham. The documentary is "told in Led Zeppelin's own words and is the first officially sanctioned film on the group."

Led Zeppelin Loved Playing in the Detroit Area

In 1969, they played the city of Detroit six different times: five times at Detroit's historic Grande Ballroom and, at the end of 1969, at what Detroiters call the Old Red Barn of Olympia Stadium, home of the Detroit Red Wings and many historic concerts, including the Beatles and Elvis.

Film Will Be Different From The Film, Song Remains The Same

The Song Remains the Same is a 1976 concert film featuring the English rock band Led Zeppelin. The filming took place during the summer of 1973, during three nights of concerts at Madison Square Garden in New York City, 

The new movie will include many extras. As a fan of the 1976 movie, I am looking forward to the first new footage and songs from the early Led Zeppelin catalog.
