Director James Cameron has collaborated with singer Billie Eilish on a new 3D concert film, "Billie Eilish -- Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live in 3D)," scheduled for release in theaters on May 8.

The film incorporates elements of her personal life alongside concert footage, using a Steadicam with a small 3D camera to offer an intimate perspective. The extensive 17-camera shoot ensures viewers feel close to Eilish and the enthusiastic crowds.
With a 29-song setlist, the filmmakers aimed to make the audience an active participant. Eilish played a role in the editing, emphasizing the need for "louder fans." She expressed excitement about having a lasting record of the tour and the opportunity to work with Cameron, whom she regards as a maestro.
