A documentary based on the life and career of iconic singer-musician and former The Beatles band member, Paul McCartney is set to be streamed on a popular OTT platform from February 25, 2026.

Prime Video announced on Monday that โ€˜Man on the Runโ€™, which chronicles McCartneyโ€™s life after the breakup of The Beatles, will stream globally from next year, featuring never-before-seen footage and rare archival materials on the musicianโ€™s transformative decade.

The film offers an intimate look at the legendary musicianโ€™s journey through the 1970s, as he formed the band, โ€˜Wingsโ€™, with his wife, Linda, and attempted to recreate a solo identity after the worldโ€™s most famous band disbanded, said the streamer in a statement.ย 

โ€˜Man on the Runโ€™ has been directed by Academy Award-winner, Morgan Neville, and produced by Tremolo in association with MPL and Polygram Entertainment. McCartney also serves as an executive producer alongside Caitrin Rogers; Neville, Chloe Simmons, and Meghan Walsh for Tremolo; Scott Rodger and Ben Chappell for MPL; and Michele Anthony and David Blackman for Polygram Entertainment.

It is presented by Amazon MGM Studios.ย

The documentary also marks the beginning of a new collaboration between Paul McCartney, Universal Music Group, and Amazon, which will span the coming year, and include exclusive music releases, special merchandise drops through Amazon Music, and commentary from McCartney, the studios said in a statement.

The rollout coincides with the release of McCartneyโ€™s upcoming projects โ€“ โ€˜Wings: The Story of a Band on the Runโ€™, a book set to release on November 4, followed by โ€˜WINGSโ€™, a self-titled definitive collection available on streaming and limited-edition vinyl on November 7.
