Marley movie mania

A few hours after the global release of the Bob Marley One Love documentary film trailer on Thursday the late Jamaican reggae superstar’s son, Ziggy, said his dad would have enjoyed the work that went into its production.

In fact, the 54-year-old singer, musician, songwriter, actor, and philanthropist told the Jamaica Observer that his world-famous father had “always wanted to make a movie… He wanted to make a Western”.

Within 10 hours of its release the Bob Marley: One Love – Teaser Trailer chalked up more than 14 million views on YouTube, Twitter and Instagram combined, corroborating Ziggy Marley’s declaration to the Observer that global response to the project has been overwhelming.
