Multi-platinum-selling band, Simple Plan announced their upcoming documentary chronicling their successful career, as they tour the world in anticipation of their 25th anniversary. The untitled documentary, which is currently in production with Sphere Media, was announced by lead singer Pierre Bouvier live on stage in front of thousands of fans at the When We Were Young festival in Las Vegas this past weekend. The documentary will launch globally on Prime Video in 2025.
“This movie is the centrepiece of the band’s 25th anniversary celebrations and probably one of the most ambitious and special project we’ve ever been a part of. Reaching this milestone felt like the perfect moment to look back, reflect and give our fans an inside look into our lives, both on tour and at home,” said the members of Simple Plan.
“We gave director Didier Charette unprecedented access to the band, and our archives, and trusted him to tell our story. He travelled with us on tour for an entire year and, in the process, really captured the essence of who we are as a band and as people. We’re so proud of this movie and can’t wait for our fans to watch it and get to know us like never before!”
“Simple Plan is one of the most iconic bands from the 2000s, who have proven staying power as they continue to connect with audiences of all ages,” said Shaun Alperin, Head of Content, Prime Video, Canada. “Their music and fun-loving personalities have inspired millions of fans, and we’re thrilled to bring their story to Prime Video.”
The film will chronicle the formation of Simple Plan in Montreal in the late 1990s, their rise to global stardom with hits like “Welcome to My Life,” “Perfect,” and “The Antidote,” and their continued impact as one of the most successful punk rock bands that continues to sell out shows worldwide. The documentary will feature never-before-seen archival footage, along with new interviews with the band members and celebrated icons of the punk rock community including Mark Hoppus (Blink 182), Avril Lavigne, Dexter Holland & Noodles (The Offspring) and Fat Mike (NoFX). The documentary is produced by Sphere Media with executive producers Bruno Dubé, Renaud Chassé and Marie-Hélène Tremblay, and producer Samuel.
