Apple Original Films announced that the documentary Bono: Stories of Surrender will premiere globally on Apple TV+ on May 30.

The “lyrical, bold exploration” of Bono’s one-man show of the same name (based on his 2022 memoir, Surrender: 40 Songs One Story), will also be the first feature-length film available on the Apple Vision Pro in Apple Immersive Video. The Apple Vision Pro version will present the film in 8K with Spatial Audio, producing a 180-degree visual that, “places viewers onstage with Bono and in the center of his story. With this special edition of the film available only on Vision Pro, viewers will feel completely immersed in the music and storytelling of Surrender.”

The movie, directed by Andrew Dominik (The Assassination of Jesse James), is described in a press release as, “a vivid reimagining of Bono’s critically-acclaimed one-man stage show, Stories of Surrender: An Evening of Words, Music and Some Mischief…, as he pulls back the curtain on a remarkable life and the family, friends, and faith that have challenged and sustained him, revealing personal stories about his journey as a son, father, husband, activist and rockstar. Along with never-before-seen, exclusive footage from the Beacon Theatre shows, the film features Bono performing many of the iconic U2 songs that have shaped his life and legacy.”

An updated and abridged paperback version of the memoir Bono: Stories of Surrender will also be released in connection with the documentary film.
