Fleetwood Mac: The Chain, the first fully authorized documentary on the legendary rock band, will debut on Apple TV on January 29, 2027.
The documentary, directed by Frank Marshall and produced by The Kennedy/Marshall Company and White Horse Pictures, offers fans what Apple has described as a “definitive and unprecedented look at Fleetwood Mac’s story, bringing together voices, memories and perspectives of Grammy Award-winning Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks.”
The doc synopsis reads: Following their fortuitous meeting in 1974, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks reflect on their uncompromising 50-plus-year history, from their record-breaking recordings and tours — including never-before-seen footage and exclusive new interviews — through to today.
The film will explore how the band’s trials and tribulations, personal resilience, and musical dexterity combined to create enduring masterpieces. It will take fans through the highs and lows of their brilliant career, illuminating the exceptional ingredients each member brought to the band’s uncommon alchemy — a musical union that sold more than 220 million records worldwide.
