Is there a trailer for Boyzone: No Matter What?
Yes, the trailer gives us a glimpse into what we can expect from the documentary, from the early days when the band was first formed to the highs and lows of fame that followed.
”We were a bunch of kids put together. We weren’t perfect, we weren’t polished,” Ronan says in the trailer. While Louis Walsh, the band's estranged manager adds: “I prefer ordinary people because they work harder. And they do whatever you want at the start.”
We also see clips of the interviews with Ronan, Keith, Shane and Mikey as they talk about their time in the band, as well as the emotional moment the shocking news broke that Stephen had passed away.
