Disney+, magna studios, and Sony Music Vision have announced an untitled documentary film built around “Oasis Live ‘25,” Liam and Noel Gallagher’s landmark reunion tour. Created by BAFTA and Oscar-nominated writer-producer Steven Knight and directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace, the film opens in select IMAX and cinemas worldwide on September 11 for a limited theatrical run before arriving on Disney+ internationally, and on Hulu and Disney+ in the US, later this year.

The production infrastructure behind the film matches the scale of the event it’s documenting. Southern and Will Lovelace previously directed Shut Up and Play the Hits — the definitive LCD Soundsystem farewell document — and Meet Me in the Bathroom, the oral history adaptation that set the benchmark for how indie-era music gets archived on screen. Their involvement signals a film built for longevity, not just the cycle of a reunion announcement. Behind the camera, cinematographer Haris Zambarloukos (Belfast, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice) and Oscar-winning sound mixers James Mather (Top Gun: Maverick, Belfast) and Tarn Willers (The Zone of Interest) give the project a technical pedigree that few music documentaries can claim.

What the source material provides is equally extraordinary. The film features unprecedented rehearsal, backstage, onstage access across the “Oasis Live ‘25” world tour, and, most significantly, the first joint interviews with Noel and Liam Gallagher in over 25 years. That detail alone reframes what this documentary can be. Every account of the Oasis split has, until now, been told in parallel; each brother giving his version separately, in separate rooms, to separate journalists.

Knight, for his part, has framed the film explicitly around reconciliation and fan impact, describing it as the story of how music can unite generations and cultures in a moment of division. That framing is characteristic of his work on Peaky Blinders — an instinct for finding the emotional through-line beneath the spectacle. Applied to Oasis, a band whose catalog has functioned as generational shorthand for millions of listeners across three decades, the documentary has the architecture to land well beyond the fan base that filled the “Live ‘25” stadiums.

The September 11 IMAX theatrical window — a limited engagement ahead of the Disney+ stream — positions the film alongside the growing model of music documentaries that treat the cinema as a meaningful first stop rather than an afterthought. It’s the same playbook Disney used with Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour, which debuted as the number-one music film ever on Disney+. The Oasis film enters that template with considerably more emotional complexity at its core.

The untitled Oasis documentary opens in select IMAX and cinemas worldwide on September 11, presented by Disney+. It will stream exclusively on Disney+ internationally and on Hulu and Disney+ in the US later this year. Further details, including cinema listings, will be announced soon.
