Neil Peart Documentary No One’s Disciple Gets First Trailer
Watch Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, the Police’s Stewart Copeland, and others remember the late Rush drummer
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation has unveiled the first trailer for the upcoming documentary, No One’s Disciple, which delves into the life and legacy of Rush drummer Neil Peart. Bandmates Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson, as well as fellow drummers Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers and Stewart Copeland of The Police, provide commentary in the trailer.
Lee expresses regret that the band never managed to pay tribute to Peart following his passing, a sentiment that has weighed on him greatly. The trailer also includes archival footage of Peart himself, in which he recalls his early fascination with drumming, starting at around 11 or 12 years old when he began banging pots and pans around the house.
Co-directed by Scot McFadyen and Sam Dunn, No One’s Disciple is set to make its debut at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 16, with an unspecified wide release date. Currently, Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson are immersed in their extensive Fifty Something World Tour, with Anika Nilles serving as the new touring drummer in place of Peart.
