Noel and Liam Gallagher to both attend Venice Film Festival premiere of Oasis’ ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’ documentary
Noel and Liam Gallagher are both expected to attend the Venice Film Festival premiere of a new documentary about Oasis's 2024 reunion and their huge "Live '25" tour. Festival director Alberto Barbera confirmed the brothers had "promised" to appear in Venice, marking a rare public appearance together outside their on-stage performances, given that the pair had barely been seen together since the band split acrimoniously in 2009.
Titled "Don't Look Back In Anger", the documentary is produced by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight and directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace, and will screen out of competition in Venice's non-fiction category. It charts the brothers' rehearsals and tour following twelve years of estrangement, and will get a limited worldwide cinema and IMAX release from 11 September before streaming later in 2026 on Disney+, and on Hulu in the US. Separately, Liam has dismissed talk of a new Oasis album, telling fans he is not prepared for the inevitable criticism, with the band's last record remaining 2008's "Dig Out Your Soul".

Explained simply
Oasis were one of Britain's most successful rock bands of the 1990s, fronted by brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher. The pair's relationship was marked by tension, leading to the band's acrimonious split in 2009, after which the brothers largely avoided each other for over a decade.
In 2024, Oasis announced a surprise reunion and "Live '25" tour, their first performances together in fifteen years. A documentary titled "Don't Look Back In Anger" has been produced to chronicle the band's journey, documenting their rehearsals and tour as they reunited after such a lengthy time apart.
The reunion carries significance given how bitter the original falling out was and because Oasis remains hugely popular among rock music fans. The documentary tells the story of reconciliation between two brothers whose feud had become one of the music industry's most high-profile public conflicts.
