George Michael's Lost Concert Film to Hit Big Screen

A restored and remastered feature film of George Michael's "Faith" Tour from 1988 is being prepared for a worldwide theatrical release later this year. George Michael Entertainment and Mercury Studios are behind the project, which includes previously unseen footage shot on 35mm film over two nights at Paris's Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy. This cinematic event will also coincide with the release of an 18-track live album of unreleased performances. The film is directed by Andy Morahan and David Austin, frequent collaborators of Michael's.

The "Faith" album itself was a monumental success, earning Michael a Grammy for Album of the Year and achieving four U.S. No. 1 singles, a record for a British male solo artist from a single album. The album sold over 25 million copies globally and topped charts in ten countries. Michael, who rose to fame with Wham!, became one of the best-selling musicians of all time with over 125 million records sold solo worldwide.
