Marking the release of Songs of Surrender on March 17th, Disney+ is premiering the documentary, Bono & The Edge: A Sort of Homecoming, with Dave letterman. Filmmaker Morgan NeVille captures David Letterman during his first visit to Dublin to hang out with Bono of U2 and The Edge in their hometown, as well as, join them for a concert performance.
According to U2, The docufilm is “part concert movie, part travel adventure plus a whole lot of Bono and The Edge, with Dave’s humor throughout,” While NeVille added, “I fell in love with U2 and David Letterman at roughly the same time, somewhere around my sophomore year of high school, That somehow decades later we would all come together in Ireland to make this show was an unlikely dream somehow come to life.”
Meanwhile producer, Justin Wilkes said that, “I had this incredible dream that I was in the magical city of Dublin with Bono, The Edge and David Letterman. And if it wasn’t for the fact that Morgan beautifully captured it all on film, I still wouldn’t believe it actually happened.”
The film itself was filmed in New York, Los Angeles, and Dublin, Ireland.
