For fans of U2: what to watch, read & play next

Cross-media picks for U2 fans — films, series, games and books in the same vein.

These picks are for fans of U2 who want to follow the thread — music as mission, the cost of belief, and the gap between the dream and the reality. You'll find the band's own story in U2 by U2 and Killing Bono, the mechanics of rock mythology unpacked in Classic Albums and Behind the Music, and a string of films, games, and books where music shapes identity and characters reckon with what they've risked. Each pick rewards the same appetite for something that matters.

Frequently asked

What should I watch if I like U2?

Start with Bono: Stories of Surrender for an intimate portrait of the frontman himself, then try Killing Bono for a comic-dramatic look at U2's rise through the eyes of the Dublin brothers who almost kept up with them.

Are there books for U2 fans?

U2 by U2 is the inside account told by the band; U2 at the End of the World follows them across four continents over four years. For broader rock history, Psychotic Reactions and Carburettor Dung collects opinionated essays on Bowie, Lou Reed, the Clash, and more.

What games would U2 fans enjoy?

The Beatles: Rock Band lets you play through a legendary career from Liverpool to Shea Stadium, while Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s covers the era on a guitar controller. Mixtape (2025) offers a narrative take — a last-night-of-high-school adventure scored by a generation-defining soundtrack.
