HBO is set to release a two-part documentary titled 'Billy Joel: And So It Goes' in the summer of 2025, exploring the iconic musician's life, legacy, and career.

Directed by Susan Lacy and Jessica Levin, the documentary will feature personal photographs, interviews, home movies, and previously unseen performances.

The film may also delve into Joel's family history, previously explored in the 2001 documentary 'The Joel Files', which detailed his grandfather's experiences during the Nazi regime.

Despite recently announcing a 2025 tour, Joel had to postpone several dates due to a recent surgery, with plans to perform at major venues including Yankee Stadium and MetLife Stadium.

Joel expressed regret over the tour postponement but remains optimistic about returning to perform for his fans.

This documentary will differ from previous films about Joel, such as 'The Last Play At Shea Stadium' and 'A Matter Of Trust: The Bridge To Russia', by focusing on his overall life and career rather than specific performances.

Rescheduled performances are planned for spring and summer 2026, with potential guest appearances by artists like Stevie Nicks and Sting.

The affected cities from the postponement include Toronto, Detroit, Syracuse, Milwaukee, Charlotte, Salt Lake City, Edinburgh, and Liverpool, with specific rescheduled dates announced.

In 2024, at 75 years old, Joel released his first new song in 17 years titled 'Turn the Lights Back On' and performed it at the Grammy Awards.

Notable figures including Tom Hanks, Gary Goetzman, Todd Milliner, Sean Hayes, and Steve Cohen serve as executive producers, with Emma Pildes as the producer.

Lacy expressed gratitude for the trust Billy Joel placed in the filmmakers, aiming for an honest portrayal that explores uncharted territories of his life.

On March 11, 2025, Joel announced the postponement of eight concerts due to his surgery, with tickets for later shows available online.
