'Beastie Boys Story' is coming to Apple TV+ on April 24

 

The two surviving members of the Beastie Boys still have more of their story to tell. And so Ad-Rock and Mike D worked with their old collaborator Spike Jonze on a new live documentary called Beastie Boys Story. The new trailer for the Apple TV+ documentary shows the two Beasties sharing tales about their friendship to an audience at Kings Theatre in Brooklyn last year. The almost three-minute trailer gives us a better look at what the documentary is going to look like.

Beastie Boys Story is supposed to open in IMAX theatres in the US on April 2, but with the current situation surrounding the coronavirus, that might be postponed. It will be coming to the Apple TV+ streaming service on April 24, so if you're a fan, you might want to take note of that date.

Spotify lets you edit your profile name and photo on mobile

It's a seemingly simple feature, but it's taken Spotify a while to bring it to its mobile apps. Thankfully, it's available now. The streaming music platform now lets you change your profile name and photo within the iOS and Android apps. Head to the Settings (gear icon), tap on View Profile, and then select Edit Profile underneath your name. The app will then let you change your name or photo there.

'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker' gets an early digital release in the US, too

 

Aside from Frozen 2 hitting Disney+ earlier than expected, another Disney property is showing up online earlier as well. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker has been spotted in online digital stores in the US, including Vudu, iTunes, and Google Play. It isn't on Amazon yet as of this writing. The film isn't available for rent, though. You will need to purchase it, and you can do so for up to 4K quality. The Rise of Skywalker was expected to hit digital stores on March 17, but it looks like they wanted to capitalize on people spending their weekends in. We aren't sure if it's available here in Canada, too. But the wait shouldn't be long either.
