AMC Theatres is in final talks to bring Beyonce’s Renaissance concert to the big screen, complete with behind-the-scenes looks.
Beyonce’s Renaissance World Tour could be coming to the big screen.
According to Variety, a film version of the superstar’s blockbuster concert may be released via AMC Theatres, which is in final talks to distribute it directly. Sources tell the publication that the project includes a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the album and the formation of the tour, as well as sections of the live performances and the long-gestating visual album. It is eyeing a wide release date of Dec. 1.
Rumors of a potential Renaissance film first lit up when the tour kicked off in Stockholm, Sweden, this past May, after a crew member told fans that cameras would be up during Beyonce’s hometown stop: “We’ll be [in Houston] for two days, and we’re gonna be shooting a movie there.” Additionally, Above the Line reported last month that the visual album was shot in secret by artist-filmmaker Nadia Lee Cohen.
