[Eryn]

Earliertoday, the Brit boy band announced that their highly successful current tour will be made into a big screen feature. The One Direction: Where We Are concert film will hit cinemas this October, but only for two days!

"The world's biggest band set out on their biggest tour ever. This October, they're coming to you. One Direction: Where We Are concert film," reads the film's trailer, which shows Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik and Niall Horan performing on stage during their concert at Milan's San Siro stadium. "Get closer than ever. Be part of the phenomenon."

While the new 1D film will only be shown over one weekend, event cinema distributors Arts Alliance Ltd confirms there will be more than 10,000 screenings in over 3,000 screens across more than 50 territories, making this the biggest global concert film release ever.

I won't bore you all with a lot of words because I know you really just want to get to watchin', but the full-length trailer for One Direction's behind-the-scenes concert film, directed by Mr. Morgan Spurlock, is finally here, and I think it have everything you 1D fans could ever want: baby photos, Harry Styles getting pantsed, charming cute-guy antics, and lots of screaming girls.

This Is Us, previously known as 1D3D movie, is One Direction's theatrical 3D concert film. Morgan Spurlock directed the film, and also produced it along with Adam Milano, Ben Winston and the band's co-founder, Simon Cowell. It is distributed by TriStar Pictures and released by Sony Pictures/Columbia Pictures.[1] It was announced for the first time by Niall in New York's Rockefeller Plaza, during the Today Show, on November 12, 2012.

Not long after being announced in New York, One Direction began to film the movie in Tokyo, Japan on January 17, 2013. Two days later, during the Team 1D Japan Party, they performed One Way Or Another (Teenage Kicks), in front of a large audience, which was later revealed to be part of the film.

The official movie website[2] went up and included a fan mosaic, an interactive poster of the movie that contained thousands of photos submitted by fans of themselves. There was also a meme creator, exclusive photos, videos and much more on the website.

After the release of the trailer on their Vevo a few weeks later, the title was guessed to be "1D3D", although it wasn't until March 18, 2013 when the boys revealed the official title, "This Is Us", on their Twitter, with help of some fans.

A press conference was held in the morning of Monday August 19, 2013, one day before the worldwide premiere of the movie in London's Lecister Square. There were oppurtunities for photos with the movie's director Morgan Spurlock and a press conference. Afterwards, there were chances for more casual interviews with Harry and Niall together and Zayn, Louis and Liam together.

There was a twitter Q&A session held on the official This Is Us twitter account with each of the boys using the hashtag #1DMovieChat the night before the London premiere on August 19, 2013. First Zayn, then Liam, then Niall, then Louis, then Harry and Morgan Spurlock, the director of the movie. The question would be retweeted then the answer was written by This Is Us twitter account an signed off with the boy's initials.The chat began at 7:15 PM and ended at 9 PM (BST).

On the November 9, 2013, Niall confirmed, via twitter, that a special edition of This Is Us with 20 extra minutes and 4 songs from their previous albums Up All Night and Take Me Home was going to be released in US and Canadian cinemas[3]. He did add however that it would be available in more countries "soon"[4]. It was released in the United Kingdom and Europe on September 19th.

The official Amazon link[5] was released in a tweet from the official One Direction twitter account[6]. The DVD was available for pre order from September 30, 2013. It was released in several countries on December 16th in three different editions:

The hashtag #1DMoviePremiere was used to represent the premiere on twitter and around 3.6 million tweets used the hashtag and terms such as "London" and "Leicester Square" were trending for the duration of the day[7].

The boys arrived at 5:45 PM and other stars that walked the carpet include Little Mix; McFly; JLS; various youtubers such as Zoella, Alfie Deyes, Tanya Burr and Jim Chapman; Ronnie Wood and many others. The premiere ended at 7:20 PM when everyone had been admitted into Empire cinema where the film was to be shown.

It was held on August 26, 2013 in New York's Midtown district and the premiere had brought the whole area to a "standstill". Some girls had been waiting for a number of days beforehand to get up close with the boys and there were thousands of screaming fans that greeted them. The boys arrived on the "black carpet" infront of the Ziegfeld Theatre, where the film was to be shown.

On February 8th, Daybreak premiered a short trailer of the documentary where you could see small scenes of One Direction having fun, telling their stories behind the camera and working on their presentations. Two day later, it was officially released on their VEVO.

The full trailer was released on June 25th on VEVO. The trailer also revealed a new song named "Best Song Ever" which features in the movie. Simon Cowell, the boy's mums and fans all appear in the trailer.

The world premiere of the film was held in Leicester Square, in London on August 20, 2013. The film was released in the United Kingdom on August 29, 2013, and was rolled out internationally on August 30, 2013 with a majority of markets being reached by the end of September 2013.

Billie Eilish just released the official trailer for her upcoming Disney+ concert film, Happier Than Ever: A Love Letter to Los Angeles. The concert is the first performance of her new album, Happier Than Ever, in order.

Audiences will learn how the band got together via the British talent show The X-Factor, where the guys are all from, and what it's like for them on each international stop of their first global concert tour.

The guys, who seem as close as siblings, show how important it is to be grateful for success and to realize that without their fans, they'd still be working in bakeries or singing for just their families.

According to the documentary, the guys are all incredibly close mates and are grateful to their fans for turning them into a global pop sensation. They take care of their families -- one scene shows Zayn buying his parents a house -- and seem genuinely surprised by their success and the reach of their fandom.

The guys often hang out backstage shirtless, and in one scene, one of them is shown changing (he's momentarily seen in just his boxer briefs). Several of the band members have visible tattoos, and one of Harry's is shown a few times because it's across his chest. Band members don't discuss their personal romantic relationships, but the language in a couple of their ballads can be overtly romantic and makes references to physical attraction/attributes.

The British boy band is itself the "product" of the film, and it serves as a powerful promotional tool for their unbelievably popular act. The movie capitalizes on the band's origins and popularity, as well as how much social media and young female fandom is responsible for making them so famous. Producer Simon Cowell and his brainchild The X-Factor are also prominently featured.

Parents need to know that One Direction: This Is Us follows the international concert tour of Britain's most popular boy band since the Beatles. The documentary, directed by Academy Award nominee Morgan Spurlock, chronicles how Niall, Zayn, Liam, Harry, and Louis went from being a bunch of humble British/Irish boys who could sing to becoming a near-overnight sensation -- first in the United Kingdom and then the world. There's some mild language (including a couple of uses of "ass"), several glimpses of the One Direction guys shirtless (including camera shots of their tattoos), and some romantic song lyrics. Fans -- particularly tween/teen girls -- will want to see this on the big screen. To stay in the loop on more movies like this, you can sign up for weekly Family Movie Night emails.

Oscar-nominated director Morgan Spurlock (Super Size Me) helms ONE DIRECTION: THIS IS US, a 3D concert documentary that shows the 1D guys -- Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, and Louis Tomlinson -- on their first big international concert tour. In between on-stage sets of 1D performing everywhere from Madison Square Garden to Japan, Germany, France, Spain, Scandinavia, and back home at London's O2 Arena, the film chronicles their rise to superstardom -- from their middle-class beginnings to the fateful day producer Simon Cowell put them together on the British talent show The X Factor.

As Zayn admits in one scene, yeah, One Direction "is a boy band, but it's a cool boy band." The five guys don't try to deny that they were completely manufactured by the music and marketing genius that is Cowell, but they also stand by their actual vocal talents. They're not just good-looking blokes Cowell saw walking down the street: They were already on a talent show, proving they could actually sing. And the guys, seemingly humbled by their remarkable near-overnight success, also acknowledge that they aren't amazing dancers (like Usher and Justin Bieber) or prolific songwriters (like Harry's ex, Taylor Swift).

What One Direction is good at is harmonizing and making even the youngest of fans (usually girls) squeal with excitement ... like that other English boy band that started out singing pop ditties. The mates are ridiculously charming, and, despite their tattoos, are clean cut enough to be even a single-digit-aged girl's first celebrity crush. Although the film does explore the guys' home lives, there aren't any huge emotional revelations like in Katy Perry's film. Sure, there's much more to these guys than what's included here (for example, Zayn recently got engaged), but for a starter look at how they went from singing in their showers to selling out stadium arenas, This Is Us is as catchy and surface-cute as the band's songs.
