Director Edgar Wright (“Scott Pilgrim vs. The World,” “Baby Driver”) chats with Sparks band members Ron and Russell Mael, about the creation of their new documentary. Plus, what's next for the long-awaited "Baby Driver" sequel, there's news!
“We’ve always been sort of hesitant,” Russell said about why there has not yet been a Sparks documentary. “What [Wright] does in his films, if he could bring that sensibility into telling the full story about Sparks, it couldn’t go wrong.”
“The Sparks Brothers” is Wright’s first documentary and is a love letter to Los Angeles-born band, who have churned out 25 rebelliously artistic albums over a decades-long career. The film dives into the group’s rich archive and is uplifted by animations and interviews that include Beck, Flea and Patton Oswalt.
Variety Studio presented by AT&T TV at Sundance Film Festival.
