Directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green and produced with the involvement of Marley's son Ziggy, daughter Cedella, and widow Rita, "Bob Marley: One Love" aims to capture the essence of Marley's life and inspire audiences. The film was shot at authentic locations significant to Marley, such as Trench Town and Bull Bay in Kingston. Ziggy Marley expressed pride and excitement about the film, hoping that viewers will find both entertainment and inspiration in the artistic creation.

Despite the danger, Marley remains committed to his mission of spreading peace and love. When questioned about his decision to return to Jamaica for a peace concert, he declares that his life is dedicated to serving the people. The trailer concludes with glimpses of Marley's resilience as he rebuilds and prepares for his upcoming performance, with emphasis on the support of his wife, played by Lashana Lynch.

The trailer begins with Marley, portrayed by Kingsley Ben-Adir, emphasizing the inclusive nature of reggae music. It then showcases pivotal moments in Marley's life, including performances, studio sessions, and personal encounters, all set against the backdrop of Jamaica. However, the uplifting atmosphere is interrupted by the failed assassination attempt just days before the Smile Jamaica Concert.

The official trailer for the Paramount film "Bob Marley: One Love" provides a glimpse into the life of the legendary reggae artist. The film focuses on a year-and-a-half period following a failed assassination attempt on Marley in 1976, leading up to his iconic performance at the One Love Peace Concert in Jamaica in 1978.
