Apple TV Lands Spike Jonze's 'Beastie Boyz' Feature Documentary

The Beastie Boyz Story is coming to Apple TV from the one and only Spike Jonze.

The story that revolves around legendary hip-hop group directed by Jonze features Grammy Award-winning bandmembers Mike Diamond and Adam Horovitz talking about their music career and 40-year friendship.

A special cut of the feature documentary will open exclusively in select Imax theaters for a limited run from April 3, before the film debuts globally on Apple TV+ on April 24.

Diamond (aka Mike D) and Adam Horovitz (Ad-Rock) along with the late Adam Yauch (MCA) formed the hip-hop group, and the surviving band members recall their musical collaboration in the feature doc after earlier penning a memoir.

Jonze even directed the music video for the Beastie Boys' hit single Sabotage. "I owe Beastie Boys a lot. One time, they pulled me out of a burning ship, and another time they helped me cheat on my college exam to get into Florida State. So, it was a real privilege to get to reunite with them and help them tell their story," Jonze said in a statement.

The film is produced for Apple by Fresh Bread and Pulse Films, in association with Polygram Entertainment.
