Sit down, grab some popcorn and maybe a glass of wine because a documentary about Boyzone is coming.
And we’re already obsessed!
For the first time in 30 years, band members Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, Shane Lynch and Michael Graham grant rare and exclusive interview access for this three-part Sky documentary series entitled Boyzone: No Matter What.
They will reveal their personal experiences in a band that sold over 25 million records worldwide and they also talk candidly about how they grappled with the true cost of global fame.
And we have a first look!
As they try to close a chapter in their lives, they confront the strained relationships and tragic events that have had a lasting impact on all their lives, families and friendships.
The Sky Original series includes contributions from the late Stephen Gately’s sister, Michelle, his former partner and pop star Eloy De Jong and their estranged manager Louis Walsh, as well as never-been-seen archive footage from the group’s early career.
The synopsis reads: “In 1993, five young men from Dublin stepped out of obscurity and into global stardom, captivating millions and selling more than 25 million records worldwide. For the first time in 30 years, Boyzone band members Ronan, Keith, Shane, and Mikey open up in exclusive interviews, sharing their personal journeys and the true cost of fame.”
Yes, it’s safe to say that we will be glued to this!
The documentary is set to look at the key events that shaped Boyzone, including the highs and lows of global stardom.
The series details the intense tabloid intrusion forcing Stephen Gately to come out and, after a sensational comeback in 2007, a devastating tragedy that struck the band as Stephen died.
JD Buckley, CEO at Sky Ireland, said: “One of the most globally beloved boy bands of the 1990s, Boyzone’s music has been cherished by Irish fans for over thirty years now.
“A story that began with just five young men from Dublin, they remain trailblazers for Irish artists today. With privileged access to Ronan, Shane, Keith and Mikey, we are thrilled to be bringing this exclusive new series to our Sky and NOW customers, which promises to tell their phenomenal story as viewers have never seen before.”
Boyzone: No Matter What coming early 2025 to Sky Documentaries and NOW.
