Bono & The Edge release full trailer for their Dublin special with David Letterman

The full trailer for Bono & The Edge: A Sort of Homecoming with Dave Letterman has been released ahead of the documentary special's premiere on Disney+ on St Patrick's Day.

The documentary sees US chat show legend Letterman receiving a guided tour from the U2 pair on his first trip to Ireland, with music and memories along the way.

In a statement, Letterman joked: "Recently, I won a radio contest. Winner gets to visit Dublin with Bono and The Edge (radio contest part not true, but I feel like a winner).

"It's a great tour. Get in touch with them"

"They showed me around, introduced me to their musician friends, and performed some of their greatest songs in a small theatre.

"It's a great tour. Get in touch with them - I'm told there are still availabilities. I'm the luckiest man on the planet. (There are no availabilities)."

Bono & The Edge: A Sort of Homecoming with Dave Letterman has been directed by the Oscar-winning filmmaker Morgan Neville, the director of 20 Feet from Stardom, Won't You Be My Neighbor?, and Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain.

The documentary's St Patrick's Day premiere coincides with the release of Songs of Surrender, a new compilation album of "reimagined and re-recorded" U2 tracks featuring 40 songs from their back catalogue.
