Oasis Doc Directors on Filming Gallaghers' First Reunion in 15 Years
Key Points:
- Directors Will Lovelace and Dylan Southern captured the reunion and rehearsals of Liam and Noel Gallagher for the Disney+ documentary “Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger,” highlighting the brothers' serious, workmanlike approach to their comeback after 15 years apart.
- The filmmakers chose to film remotely without intruding on the sensitive first prolonged reunion, observing the band’s meticulous preparation for their record-breaking world tour, which began in early 2025 and spanned multiple countries.
- Despite initial tension, the Gallagher brothers focused intensely on delivering the best possible performances for their fans, with the reunion evolving into a meaningful, feel-good event rather than a simple money-making venture.
- The documentary features immersive concert footage shot by a diverse team of cinematographers around the world, capturing not only the band’s performances but also the emotional reactions of thousands of fans who found the shows deeply cathartic.
- Premiering in IMAX, the film aims to recreate the vibrant atmosphere of Oasis’ 2025 tour, with playful nods to iconic ’90s fashion such as bucket hats, which the directors humorously suggest could become a new cinema snack accessory.
