Next year will mark the 50th anniversary of Led Zeppelin's formation, and while it's unlikely the rock titans will reform for another reunion gig, guitarist Jimmy Page has hinted that there are plans in store to mark the occasion.

Page spoke on the upcoming milestone in a video recorded for the Academy of Achievement. "There'll be Led Zeppelin product coming out, for sure, that people haven't heard, because I'm working on that," the guitarist revealed. "Next year will be the 50th year, so there's all manner of surprises coming out."

Fans were last treated to all manner of unreleased Zeppelin material through a series of expanded deluxe reissues released by the band in 2015. They also delivered an expanded version of their BBC Sessions LP complete with lost tracks.
