Bono’s One-Man Show Debuts in Apple’s Immersive Format on Vision Pro

• “Bono: Stories of Surrender” will be the first feature-length film released in Apple Immersive Video on Apple Vision Pro.
• The 8K, 180-degree format with Spatial Audio places viewers onstage with Bono for a personal, cinematic experience.

At the 78th Cannes Film Festival, Apple Original Films premiered “Bono: Stories of Surrender,” a cinematic adaptation of Bono’s one-man stage show. Directed by Andrew Dominik, the film blends storytelling, archival footage, and performances from the Beacon Theatre.

The film will debut globally on Apple TV+ on May 30, 2025. An immersive version, “Bono: Stories of Surrender (Immersive),” will launch the same day on Apple Vision Pro in Apple Immersive Video—an 8K format with Spatial Audio that places viewers on stage with Bono in a 180-degree experience.

The immersive film is produced by RadicalMedia and Plan B Entertainment, with Bono credited as an executive producer. It is the first full-length title released in Apple Immersive Video.

🌀 Tom’s Take

Apple has invested heavily in immersive Apple TV+ content for its spatial computer, Vision Pro. Entertainment—through sports, TV, and movies—is a natural gateway for introducing mainstream users to spatial computing.
