Director Morgan Neville on Exploring Paul McCartney's Life in 'Man on the Run' Doc

The film features unseen archival footage and interviews, detailing McCartney's reinvention after the Beatles and Wings' rise, with a theatrical release before Amazon Prime debut.

  • Morgan Neville's new documentary Paul McCartney- Man on the Run chronicles McCartney’s post-Beatles life, playing in theaters this week and streaming on Amazon Prime from February 27.
  • Neville traces why McCartney needed to rebuild after the split, framing his search for a quieter life and portraying Allen Klein as a villain driving a wedge between McCartney and John Lennon.
  • Through unseen archival footage, fresh interviews with Sean Ono Lennon, Chrissie Hynde, and Wings members include candid moments like McCartney saying `Well, fuck you,` and a dream about Klein as a dentist.
  • Alongside theatrical showings, the film has a soundtrack album and a book, with a Wednesday London screening attended by Paul Mescal, Gracie Abrams, Stella and James McCartney.
  • Ending in the early 1980s, the film leaves questions open as McCartney, now almost 84 and touring, is linked to talk of a potential new album this year.
