A new Fleetwood Mac documentary is on the way, via Apple Original Films. The members will tell the story of the band in their own words, according to Apple, which bills the documentary as the first to be authorized by the band. (Archival interviews with the late Christine McVie will feature.) The as-yet-untitled film will be directed by Frank Marshall, who also headed up a recent Beach Boys film for Disney+. Before that, he directed the Bee Gees documentary How Can You Mend a Broken Heart. No release date for the new movie has been set.

“I am fascinated by how this incredible story of enormous musical achievement came about,” Marshall said in Apple press materials. “Fleetwood Mac somehow managed to merge their often chaotic and almost operatic personal lives into their own tale in real-time, which then became legend. This will be a film about the music and the people who created it.”
