Few festivals have accumulated the level of respect and reverence that attendees hold for Primavera Sound Festival, and even fewer (if any) have managed to sustain it.

Pistol, premiering today, which explores the rise and crash of Sex Pistols—the English band who ignited a counterculture movement in 1970s London. (The show, directed by Danny Boyle, is based on the memoir from real-life Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones.) “I was aware of the Sex Pistols and the punk movement’s impact at the time, but I didn’t realize how the fashion, music, and art all further triggered the movement,” Williams tells . “It was just a real scene in London, and it was like a small group of people that created that revolution.”The actor plays Jordan, née Pamela Rooke, a real-life punk pioneer from the 1970s who often styled the Sex Pistols for performances and served as muse to the designer Vivienne Westwood, another fixture of the decade.

The Queen has a long history with the Sex Pistols.

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV CriticSome of the most exciting filmmaking in “Pistol,” FX’s new Danny Boyle-directed limited series, happens onstage. In concert scenes featuring the Sex Pistols — the real-life punk pathbreakers at the center of this story — the camera toggles between performer and spectator, moving so rapidly that it seems to eliminate the distance between the two.

Disney+ - but it has not been an easy road to get here.Pistol, a new biopic six-part mini series by Trainspotting and Slumdog Millionaire director Danny Boyle, is based on a 2016 memoir by band member Steve Jones called Lonely Boy: Tales From A Sex Pistol.However, it recently became the subject of a court battle between The Sex Pistols band members, after singer John Lydon wanted to prevent the band's songs being used in the programme.As Pistol drops on Disney+, Daily Star has taken a closer look inside The Sex Pistols feud.In 2021, Sex Pistols singer John Lydon took his fellow band members to court, in a legal battle over the use of the band's music in the new mini series Pistol.He wanted to block the makers of Pistol from using their music in the series, but instead, band members Steve Jones and Paul Cook sued the singer in order for the songs to be used.In court, guitarist Steve Jones and drummer Paul Cook argued that, under the terms of a band agreement made in 1998, decisions regarding licensing requests could be determined on a 'majority rules basis'.However, John Lydon argued that licences could not be granted without his consent.A High Court judge later ruled they could invoke majority voting rights and the music was approved for use in the series.A joint statement by Steve Jones and Paul Cook following the ruling, read: "It brings clarity to our decision-making and upholds the band members’ agreement on collective decision-making."It has not been a pleasant experience, but we believe it was necessary to allow us to move forward and hopefully work together in the future with better relations."Following the court ruling, each of the band members had very different reactions to the ruling - from anger, to regret

The lead singer of the Sex Pistols isn’t happy with the new series about the band.

John Lydon has made it crystal clear that he’s not thrilled that the story of his one-time band, Sex Pistols, is being brought to the screen in the new Hulu series “Pistol”, airing in Canada on Disney+.

Adam B. Vary Senior Entertainment WriterWhen Maisie Williams was first offered “Pistol” — the FX limited series created by Craig Pearce and directed by Danny Boyle, about punk rock band the Sex Pistols for FX — she knew little about the band or the world of 1970s counterculture London that surrounded them. But the “Game of Thrones” star was instantly drawn to the role of Jordan (aka Pamela Rooke), whose provocative makeup and fashion made her a model and muse for Vivienne Westwood — and helped to catalyze the punk movement.

John Lydon to “attack” his Sex Pistols biopic series Pistol, saying that he wouldn’t expect the singer to “change the habit of a lifetime”.The director made allusions in a new interview to the former Sex Pistols frontman’s outspoken nature. Lydon, who was known as Johnny Rotten in the legendary punk band, has criticised the forthcoming biopic on several occasions since its inception.Among those is the time that Lydon called the series a “middle class fantasy” that is “rewriting history” and “would be funny if it wasn’t tragic”.On another occasion he claimed that the production was green-lit without his consent, saying that it’s the “most disrespectful shit I’ve ever had to endure”.

Roger Moore was 'petrified' drunk Hollywood star would drop a babyLink'Don't hit him, Sean!' James Bond star was 'begged' not to attack starLinkBoyle added: "But the passageway to it (Bond's death) was obviously very different. "The director duly made a high-profile exit, to be replaced by Cary Fukunaga. It also affected his creative team and some of the actors who had been hired specifically for his plot and Russia-based finale and who were subsequently let go.

You can’t manufacture an anarchic spirit. That’s what drags down “Pistol,” the bio-series from Danny Boyle that premieres in its six-episode entirety on FX on Hulu on May 31st.
