‘Becoming Led Zeppelin’ Offers a Riveting Look at the Band’s Meteoric Rise

The new IMAX documentary explores the formative years of Led Zeppelin, blending rare footage, interviews, and restored media to capture their explosive ascent.

The documentary traces Led Zeppelin's journey from their formation in 1968 to their breakout success, culminating in their legendary Royal Albert Hall concert in 1970.
Director Bernard MacMahon and his team spent five years unearthing rare footage, photos, and audio, including a previously unaired interview with drummer John Bonham.
The film features extensive interviews with surviving members Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and John Paul Jones, though it omits darker aspects of the band's history.
While the band members contributed to the project, none attended the film's premieres, and speculation about a reunion remains unconfirmed.
The documentary has been praised for its immersive storytelling and technical restoration, making it a must-see for fans of the iconic rock band.
