Eight-time Grammy winner Usher is the latest artist set to transform theaters into mini-concert halls. Usher: Rendezvous in Paris will launch a limited run in theaters beginning September 12, 2024.
Anthony Mandler directed the concert film, which was filmed during Usher’s eight 2023 performances in Paris. AMC Theatres Distribution, Trafalgar Releasing, and Sony Music Vision partnered on the production.
“Paris was a special experience for me as an entertainer and for my fans,” stated Usher. “I hope those who weren’t able to make it in person get to experience how special it was. As for those of you who were, I hope you experience the show and see what it takes to get there through a different lens.”
Tickets go on sale beginning August 6, 2024.
“For 30 years, Usher has captivated and entertained audiences through his music and concerts. Just a few months ago, he drew rave reviews for his stunning performance in front of 129 million people during the Super Bowl Half-Time Show. Bringing his unparalleled concert experience to movie theatres for his fans around the world is a perfect fit for AMC Theatres Distribution,” said Adam Aron, Chairman and CEO, AMC Theatres.
Usher, Mandler, and Ron Laffitte serve as producers. Executive producers include Kingdom Films’ Aakomon Jones and Angelo Gopee, Arcovision’s Kwesi Collisson, and Sony Music’s Tom Mackay, Richard Story, and Krista Wegener.
“Usher: Rendezvous in Paris incorporates the essence of his landmark cultural phenomenon Vegas residencies into a seductive French touch confession. Captured during Paris Fashion Week at La Seine Musicale, the film features chart-topping hits including ‘Yeah!,’ ‘My Boo,’ ‘Love In This Club,’ and more from Usher’s 30-year career, performed with never-before-seen costumes and state-of-the-art lighting and special effects,” reads the official synopsis. “In addition to bringing the vibrant live concert experience to screen, Usher gives audiences a glimpse inside life beyond the stage – creating a global moment that moviegoers won’t want to miss.”
