Mark Your Calendars: Global Theatrical Release Date
Fans won't have to wait too long to be part of this immersive experience. Billie Eilish confirmed that the 3D concert documentary will premiere in theatres worldwide on a specific date: March 20, 2026. This strategic release will bring the tour's magic to audiences everywhere, long after the final curtain call.
The project promises to leverage James Cameron's pioneering expertise in 3D filmmaking, famously showcased in the 'Avatar' films, to create a uniquely engaging and visually stunning live music event. His upcoming project, 'Avatar: Fire and Ash', is scheduled for release on December 19 of this year.
The Secret Revealed: How the Project Began
This isn't the first time Eilish has hinted at this ambitious venture. She initially teased the collaboration during a sold-out performance in Manchester earlier this year. As reported by Complex, she told the audience, "So you may have noticed there are more cameras than usual."
She then revealed the secret, stating, "I'm working on something very, very special with somebody named James Cameron, and it's going to be in 3D. These four shows here in Manchester… you and me are part of a thing I'm making with him. He's in this audience somewhere." This confirms that footage from her Manchester concerts will be a central part of the documentary.
The announcement comes fresh off the heels of Eilish wrapping up the final leg of her extensive world tour in San Francisco just this past Sunday, marking the perfect culmination for this cinematic preservation of her live performances.
