Watch: Bono reimagines one-man show in 'Stories of Surrender'
April 30 (UPI) -- Apple TV+ is previewing the upcoming documentary Bono: Stories of Surrender, inspired by the U2 frontman's solo stage show of the same name.
"Something to know about performers," Bono says in the trailer, released Wednesday. "In pursuit of truth, we are capable of more untruth than most."
The documentary takes its inspiration from Bono's 2022 memoir, Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story, and the touring he did to promote it.
"Bono: Stories of Surrender is a vivid reimagining of Bono's critically-acclaimed one-man stage show, Stories of Surrender: An Evening of Words, Music and Some Mischief..., as he pulls back the curtain on a remarkable life and the family, friends and faith that have challenged and sustained him, revealing personal stories about his journey as a son, father, husband, activist and rockstar," an official synopsis reads.
"I was born with my fists up. Surrender does not come easy to me. This is my story. I'm stuck with it," he says in the trailer.
The documentary arrives on the streamer May 30. The film will also premiere with an "immersive" version for Apple Vision Pro users.

Photo courtesy of Universal Studios June 12 (UPI) -- Universal Studios Hollywood released a video previewing the upcoming Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift roller coaster. The coaster opens at the Los Angeles theme park in 2026. The video intercuts race scenes from the movie franchise with animatics of what the finished roller coaster will look like. A train of four passenger cars, modeled after vehicles from the movies, will run along the track and also spin individually 360 degrees. UPI saw the 4100 foot track under construction in May when it visited Universal Studios Hollywood for Fan Fest nights. The track includes loops and corkscrew turns. Universal announced the ride's speed at 72 miles per hour, making it the fastest at the park. Other Universal roller coasters are based on the Harry Potter franchise and 1999's The Mummy. By comparison, Cedar Point's Top Thrill Dragster can reach 120 mph and Six Flag Magic Mountain's Superman: Escape from Krypton could hit 100. Magic Mountain's Ninja and New Revolution each go 55 mph while Disneyland's classics Big Thunder Mountain is 36 and Space Mountain 27 mph. The park first announced the coaster in 2024. It is the third attraction based on the franchise, following a vehicular stunt exhibit Extreme Close-Up and Supercharged, a stop on the tram tour simulating a street race with cast members from the movie on video screens.

The words, "The Schwartz awakens in 2027," then appeared across the screen. I told you we'd be back Mel Brooks (@MelBrooks) June 12, 2025 "I was that child who saw Spaceballs before I ever saw Star Wars and then wondered why anyone would do a dramatic remake of the Mel Brooks classic," Gad wrote in a separate post. "It is therefore the greatest gift of my life to now help take the reins and work alongside Mel and this incredible group to do a sequel to the movie that first inspired George Lucas." reported Brooks, Bill Pullman and Rick Moranis are set to reprise their roles of Yogurt, Lone Star and Dark Helmet. The original movie also co-starred Daphne Zuniga and John Candy, who died in 1994, as well as featured the voice of the late Joan Rivers.
