“The first time we played together was stunning. It was like a gift from heaven.” Sony Pictures Classics has revealed the official trailer for Becoming Led Zeppelin, a music history rock ‘n roll documentary from filmmaker Bernard MacMahon. This exciting look back at the early days of Led Zeppelin first premiered at the 2024 Telluride Film Festival and it’s now set for an IMAX debut in theaters February 2025.
