“Becoming Led Zeppelin” traces the individual journeys of the band members through the 1960s music scene, culminating in their meeting in 1968 and rapid ascent to global fame by 1970. The documentary includes full performances, unseen concert footage from early U.S. and British shows, and materials from the band’s personal archives. citeturn0search14
Currently, the documentary is not available for streaming on platforms like Netflix or Amazon Prime Video. Given that “Becoming Led Zeppelin” is distributed by Sony Pictures Classics, it is anticipated to become available on Netflix around early June 2025, following a typical four-month window after its theatrical release. Additionally, it is expected to be available for purchase and rental on Prime Video in the future, though not as part of the Prime subscription.
For fans eager to experience the documentary before its streaming release, “Becoming Led Zeppelin” is currently showing in select theaters and IMAX venues. Tickets and showtimes can be found through platforms like Fandango.
In summary, while there isn’t a Netflix-exclusive documentary focusing solely on Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, “Becoming Led Zeppelin” provides a comprehensive exploration of the band’s early years, with significant contributions from both artists. The film is currently available in theaters, with streaming options expected to follow in mid-2025.
