As ex-Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora asks at the start of the trailer (see below), “Are we telling the truth? Are we going to lie? What are we going to do?” Only the band can answer that but we have a ringside seat as they decide.
Over four episodes, the inside story of one of the world's biggest rock bands takes us, and them, through four decades of high octane success and excess on one of the wildest rides imaginable.
It may not be "The Dirt" (the 2019 Mötley Crüe biopic) but there's enough tension, drama and jeopardy to go round. Public fallings-out; Sambora quits/is sacked/ replaced, and Jon Bon Jovi's vocal injury threatens to bring the band's journey to a close.

Why did Bon Jovi decide to make this documentary now?
"It's a round number, you know?" Jon Bon Jovi told one U.S. magazine. "I mean, I think 40 years is worth taking a look back... 50? I think at 50, [I] sort of wonder, 'Will I make it?' It was the 38th anniversary-ish when these thoughts came across my mind, you know, and I thought, 'Time to archive things, time to consider a documentary, time to think about what's the plan,' and this all came together."
