Oasis documentary set Sept. 11

Disney, Sony Music Vision and Magna Studios said the Oasis documentary “Don’t Look Back In Anger” will open in cinemas and IMAX on Sept. 11, setting a theatrical date for a film tied to the band’s reunion-era story. The companies said the release will be followed later in 2026 by streaming on Disney+ internationally and on Hulu and Disney+ in the United States. The announcement has circulated again this week alongside fresh reporting about SJM Concerts securing a licence for large-scale events at Knebworth House. ### Who is actually making the film? Steven Knight has been presented in recent coverage as the marquee creative name on the project, and NME has described the documentary as a Steven Knight film. But Disney’s press materials and Sony Music Vision’s July 23 release said Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace directed “Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger,” while Knight is attached to the project as its creator. (press.disney.co.uk) Sony Music Vision said the film was produced by Magna Studios and presented by Disney+. The same materials described it as a Hulu Original film in the United States. ### What does the documentary cover? (nme.com) Disney’s announcement said the documentary follows Oasis and centers on the band’s reunion story. Earlier reporting by NME said the film would include rehearsal footage, backstage access, onstage material and the first joint interviews with Noel and Liam Gallagher in 25 years. (sonymusic.com) Sony Music Vision said the film will receive its world premiere at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival. NME separately reported on July 23 that Noel and Liam Gallagher were expected to attend that premiere together, citing comments from Venice festival director Alberto Barbera.

NME reported on Aug. 6 that SJM Concerts, a promoter linked to Oasis, had been granted a licence to stage events for up to 125,000 people at Knebworth House. The BBC also reported that the licence covers large events and noted the timing, with Monday marking 30 years since Oasis played Knebworth in 1996. (sonymusic.com) The Knebworth licence does not amount to a confirmed Oasis booking. NME said the licence does not necessarily mean SJM is planning Oasis shows there, even as it has added to speculation about possible future dates. ### Where will people be able to watch it? Sept. 11 is the theatrical date cited by Disney and Sony Music Vision for cinemas and IMAX engagements. (nme.com) Later in 2026, the film is scheduled to stream on Disney+ internationally and on Hulu and Disney+ in the U.S., according to Disney’s press release and Sony Music Vision’s announcement. NME and other entertainment outlets repeated those distribution details in follow-up coverage published in July and August. That reporting tied the release plan to the wider Oasis reunion narrative that has continued to generate tour and venue speculation. ### What happens next? The 83rd Venice International Film Festival is scheduled for Sept. 2-12, and Sony Music Vision said “Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger” will premiere there before its Sept. 11 cinema and IMAX opening. (press.disney.co.uk) Disney said the next distribution step after theaters is a later-2026 streaming release on Disney+ internationally and on Hulu and Disney+ in the United States.
