An Oasis concert movie will be shot during the group’s upcoming reunion tour, and they’ve enlisted some serious filmmakers to immortalize their first concerts in 15 years. Steven Knight, the creator of “Peaky Blinders” and writer behind films like “Eastern Promises,” will serve as the creator and producer of the film, which will be directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace, the duo behind the LCD Soundsystem doc “Shut Up and Play the Hits.”
No further details or release date have been announced, and it’s unclear if this will be a full-on music documentary about how the reunion happened or just focus on the concerts.
After years of speculation, Noel and Liam Gallagher buried the hatchet and announced a tour last year, with dates spanning the UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, Mexico, South Korea, Japan, Australia, Argentina, Chile and Brazil this summer. The tour kicks off in Cardiff on July 4.
The film is produced by Magna Studios (Producers Sam Bridger & Guy Heeley & Executive Producers Marisa Clifford & Kate Shepherd).
The project will be distributed by Sony Music Vision. Krista Wegener of Sony Music Vision will lead global sales.
