"This is a unique film experience where for the first-time fans will understand how her album came to be and why it was such a personal journey for Olivia," Ayo Davis, the president of Disney Branded Television, said in a press release Thursday. "This is not a concert film per se, but really, an opportunity to experience first-hand how Olivia Rodrigo became one of the biggest music stars of the day - and a chance to see her perform the songs from 'SOUR' like never before."
Added Interscope Geffen A&M and Interscope Films chairman John Janick: "It's an authentic look into her creative process, her incredible drive and who she is as an artist and person. We're so proud to have co-produced this film with Supper Club and are thrilled that it has found a home on Disney+."
The film's debut will come as Rodrigo nears the one-year anniversary of the album's May 2021 release. "SOUR" produced the chart-topping singles "drivers license" and "good 4 u" and landed atop multiple Billboard year-end lists. Rodrigo was named "New Artist of the Year" at the American Music Awards in November and also scored seven Grammy nominations. She's set to embark on a tour of the United States and Europe this spring to promote the album.
