‘Becoming Led Zeppelin’ is now called ‘Becoming Led Zeppelin’ again

Becoming Led Zeppelin

“Becoming Led Zeppelin”, the upcoming feature-length documentary about the origins of Led Zeppelin, has returned to being marketed under its original title after seemingly being retitled “Led Zeppelin” in February.

Back in February, LedZepNews reported that the film had seemingly been retitled “Led Zeppelin”. The listing for the film on the website of Altitude Film Sales, the company hired by the filmmakers to sell it to distributors, updated the title to remove the word “Becoming” and tweaked its description. You can view an archived version of the page as it appeared in February here.

But in the past two weeks, the page was changed to restore the original title of “Becoming Led Zeppelin”. The updated description is still shown, however.

The film premiered on September 4, 2021 but has not yet been released for the public to see. On September 3, the administrator of Led Zeppelin’s official forum said the film is being re-edited.

Here’s the current description of the film on Altitude’s website:

BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN is a film that no one thought could ever be made. The band’s meteoric rise to stardom was swift and previously undocumented. With unparalleled access to the group and their personal archives, their full support and never-before-seen footage, BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN will immerse you in the sights and sounds of their early career. This big screen experience is as close as you will get to being there.

BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN tells the story of four men and their love of music, revealing their individual journeys as they move through the music scene of the 1960s, playing small clubs throughout Britain or performing on some of the biggest hits of the era, until their meeting in the summer of 1968 for a rehearsal that changes their lives forever.

Four journeys merge into one as they set out to conquer America on a rollercoaster ride that culminates in 1970 when they become the number one band in the world.

And here’s the previous description that was shown before February:

BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN is a film that no one thought could ever be made. The band’s meteoric rise to stardom was swift and virtually undocumented. With unparalleled access to the group and their personal archives, their full support and never-before-seen footage, BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN will immerse you in the sights and sounds of their early career. For all the millions of people who will never see the band live, this is as close as you will get to being there.

Before the stairway and the dragon, before the gold and the girls, there were simply four men and their love of music. BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN reveals their individual journeys as they move through the music scene of the 1960’s, playing small clubs throughout Britain and performing on some of the biggest hits of the era, until their meeting in the summer of 1968 for a rehearsal that changes their lives forever.
