Mick Jagger, frontman of The Rolling Stones, has recently contributed guitar work to the band’s new album, ‘Foreign Tongues’. Produced by Andrew Watt, the record includes Jagger’s guitar on tracks such as ‘Mr. Charm’ and ‘Covered In You’, introducing a more aggressive sound despite reservations from Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood.

Regarding his interest in a Rolling Stones biopic, the project has moved from exploration to formal development. Jagger, Richards, and Wood have reportedly signed a deal with US production company 101 Studios to produce a feature film exploring the band’s history. While the project is in its early stages with no casting yet underway, Jagger has expressed specific preferences for the production. He has indicated a desire for a ‘pretty unknown actor’ in their 20s to portray his younger self to capture the ‘energy and innocence’ of his initial rise to fame.

As of late 2026, the deal with 101 Studios is reported as finalized. The project remains in its infancy, with no director, screenplay, or cast members confirmed. Filmmakers are still in the process of determining which specific era of the band’s six-decade career the film will cover. Jagger has maintained his preference for a film focusing on the band’s formative years rather than a comprehensive biography.

Jagger’s personal life remains characterized by a nomadic lifestyle and a global real estate portfolio. His partner, Melanie Hamrick, has described their family life as being ‘just full nomad’ as they travel between various properties. His musical foundation was established in Dartford, England, through his early friendship with Keith Richards, leading to the band’s 1962 debut at London’s Marquee Club.
