This is the director’s message: “As many know, for the last few years I have been working on a documentary about Paul, as he struggled to get back on his feet: literally, emotionally and professionally. It is obviously quite sad that it all ended like this. I am very grateful for the experiences and opportunities I had with Paul, and thanks to Paul I learned a lot from him. The film will be released next year and details will be available soon: the hope is that it will debut at film festivals in early 2025. I am. very excited for the Maiden faithful to see it. Once it comes out, you will see how hard his life has been for the last ten years and how hard he has fought to change it. Maybe he has finally found some peace.”

He also did the Damned one too and he’s a great guy. We’ve had him in the works for a couple of years now. Unfortunately we had to take some time off, when he could come and do This thing. Unfortunately I’m sitting in a fucking wheelchair, it’s a pain in the ass, but what are we supposed to do?”
Asked by Dionne whether the documentary will focus on a particular part of his life or cover it from start to finish, Paul replied: “Everything. Sometimes you’ll see determination and desperation. He goes through a whole range of emotions and That’s kind of weird. He got me into all kinds of weird situations. He even fucking wanted to film it.
