Plot Synopsis
Each one-hour episode of MY LIFE AS A ROLLING STONE features an intimate portrait of one of the Rolling Stone's band members (Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood, and the late Charlie Watts), exploring different dimensions of their personalities, their musical brilliance, and their cultural impact. The series aims to reveal their creativity, their inspirations, and how they individually and collectively have overcome adversity, notoriety, and personal demons. Plus, the series features new interviews with the band members and a cast of artists who've been inspired by the band. It also includes unseen footage and exclusive stories from Mick, Keith, and Ronnie, interwoven with new and archive interviews and performance. The story of Charlie Watts, who passed away in August 2021, is told via tributes from his fellow band members, musical peers, and admirers, along with archive interviews of Charlie. MY LIFE AS A ROLLING STONE is directed by Oliver Murray and Clare Tavernor and executive produced by Steve Condie. Episodes include:
"Mick Jagger" (Sunday, August 7, 2022): Mick's creative and commercial vision has been instrumental to The Rolling Stones' success. He's steered the band to incredible musical heights, striving to keep them unified through fallouts, changing fashions, and attitudes.
"Keith Richards" (Sunday, August 14, 2022): This film explores how important Keith's unbridled passion has been to The Rolling Stones, how the sheer power of playing live keeps them on the road, and how important his image of transgression and rebellion has been to the legend of The Stones.
"Ronnie Wood" (Sunday, August 21, 2022): Ronnie is a cultural icon, guitar hero, artist, and the living embodiment of the vibrancy of British-born rock 'n' roll. He talks exclusively about his career and his life as a Rolling Stone, with its exhilarating highs and sometimes-dangerous lows.
"Charlie Watts" (Sunday, August 28, 2022): Charlie was a true musician to the core, often cited by Mick and Keith as the rock and the glue that held The Stones together. For six decades, he was the quiet force and swinging backbeat of the group and the least-showy drummer in rock history.
