Bono: Stories of Surrender on Apple TV+ Premiering in May
Apple TV+ is premiering a new music documentary called “Bono: Stories of Surrender” on May 30, 2025. This special film will offer viewers a 2D version as well as an immersive 3D experience for the Apple Vision Pro. It marks Apple’s first venture into feature-length films in this format, following their previous work on short immersive clips for their mixed reality headset.
This documentary is based on Bono’s 2022 stage production of the same name, which draws inspiration from his memoir “Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story.” In addition to sharing personal stories, the film will feature live performances of some iconic U2 songs.
Apple TV+ has been making waves with its exclusive music documentaries and series like “The Velvet Underground,” “Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry,” and “Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me.” “Bono: Stories of Surrender” goes beyond a typical music documentary to explore the U2 frontman’s life and career in a visually captivating way.
For those interested in the immersive experience, the Apple Vision Pro version of the film will use 3D technology and spatial sound to transport viewers into the heart of the story. While the classic 2D version will be available to all Apple TV+ subscribers, the Vision Pro experience will require the specialized hardware for the full effect.
This release is a significant step forward for Apple TV+, showcasing their commitment to high-quality content and cutting-edge technology. “Bono: Stories of Surrender” promises to offer fans a new perspective on an iconic artist while pushing the boundaries of storytelling in the digital age. Mark your calendars for May 30 and get ready to experience Bono like never before.
