Stevie Van Zandt took to his social-media today to announce officially that the documentary film Stevie Van Zandt: Disciple will have its world premiere at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival on Saturday, June 8. As per what Van Zandt and the Tribeca Film Festival shared online, the film, clocking in at just under two-and-a-half hours, will follow his life and work "as a musician, activist and actor from the clubs of Asbury Park, NJ, to stadiums around the world, to the Bada Bing Club, and beyond. Featuring Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Eddie Vedder, Bono, Maureen Van Zandt, Darlene Love, and many more." Of course Stevie also tweeted, "I hope it has a happy ending!"
Stevie Van Zandt: Disciple was directed by Bill Teck, and produced by David Fisher (who also handled the film's cinematography) and Robert Cotto. It is being distributed in the U.S. by HBO Documentary Films, making it very likely that HBO/Max subscribers can expect access to the film at some point in the near future.
