7/4/2026, 9:16:14 PM

Trailer Launch

On July 4, 2025—the one-year anniversary of Oasis’s Live ’25 kickoff at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium—the band released a 45-second teaser for “Don’t Look Back In Anger,” documentary of their 2025 reunion tour, featuring rehearsal clips, crowd shots and Gallaghers reflecting on their return.

Live ’25 Tour

After a violent backstage split in August 2009, Oasis announced a comeback in 2024. Live ’25 began July 4, 2025, spanned five months across Europe, North America, Asia, Oceania and South America, and ended November 23, 2025 in São Paulo after 41 sold-out shows, including two nights at Dublin’s Croke Park.

Creators

The film is produced by Steven Knight (creator of *Peaky Blinders*) and directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace. Liam and Noel Gallagher appear in their first joint interview in over two decades. Magna Studios and Sony Music Vision co-produce.

Release Plan

“Don’t Look Back In Anger” opens in select IMAX venues and cinemas on September 11, 2025. After a limited run it will stream on Disney+ internationally and on Hulu/Disney+ in the U.S., though one source cites a 2026 window.

Cultural Significance

Knight calls the tour a “cultural bridge” that united generations, cultures and countries, offering reconciliation in a divided world. The documentary frames it as “the biggest musical moment of 2025.”

Official Statements

Knight said the film captures the spirit of a global cultural moment and honors the brothers' wit and genius, noting it also highlights fans whose lives the music has touched. Noel Gallagher told NME he has seen only a brief snippet and cannot form a full opinion. Liam Gallagher hinted at a possible 2027 Etihad residency.

Fan Reaction

Fans responded enthusiastically; one wrote, “Trailer dropped and I’m already proper mad for it. Oasis reunion doc in IMAX? This is the comeback we waited 16 years for.”

Conflicting Details

Sources differ on streaming timing (2025 vs. 2026) and on the length of Knight’s initial four-hour edit; the joint interview is cited as the first in 20 years by some and 25 years by others.
