The Beatles‘ “Let It Be” documentary, which first released in theaters in 1970, finally sees the light of day once again. The documentary re-releases on Disney+ on Wednesday, May 8.

The film was restored by Peter Jackson‘s Park Road Post Production using the same technology employed to revitalize the vintage footage in “The Beatles: Get Back.” Jackson used hours of outtakes from Michael Lindsay-Hogg’s footage to assemble “The Beatles: Get Back” and during that film’s press cycle, he repeatedly vowed that his fresh treatment of the material was meant to complement the original film and that the original doc would eventually be re-released so that they could stand as companion pieces. “I’m absolutely thrilled that Michael’s movie, ‘Let It Be,’ has been restored and is finally being re-released after being unavailable for decades,” Jackson said in a statement. “I was so lucky to have access to Michael’s outtakes for ‘Get Back,’ and I’ve always thought that ‘Let It Be’ is needed to complete the ‘Get Back’ story.

Over three parts, we showed Michael and the Beatles filming a groundbreaking new documentary, and ‘Let It Be’ is that documentary – the movie they released in 1970.
