twenty one pilots have just announced details of a huge new concert movie.

Entitled More Than We Ever Imagined, the film will hit IMAX and cinemas globally on February 26 – and given just how incredible their previous 2022 ‘Cinema Experience’ was, we absolutely can’t wait. Unlike that aforementioned livestream, though, this movie captures the band’s 2025 The Clancy World Tour from Mexico City, during which Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun played to 65,000 fans. As well as the gig itself, More Than We Ever Imagined includes ‘intimate, behind-the-scenes access, revealing the heart, humour and humanity of the artists’, according to a press release.

Director and longtime band collaborator Mark C. Eshleman shares: “I have spent the better part of the last 16 years of my life following twenty one pilots around the world. I have seen them play clubs that were in the basements of bigger clubs for an audience made up of only the other bands on the bill. I have seen them play those clubs as if they were on a festival stage during a headline slot and then quietly drag their gear up the steps and into a trailer that limped behind our touring van. They would chat for hours, fine tuning the show basically no-one saw. Their fingers never leave the pulse of the performance; they swear by preparation and a vision.

“For More Than We Ever Imagined, we were given the opportunity to capture two perspectives of a twenty one pilots performance: over 20 cameras centred around the fans experiencing their show and, the second, the perspective I have had all these years leading up to that sold out stadium in Mexico City, a camera following Tyler and Josh as they take the fundamentals of their show and apply to one of the biggest stages.”

Tickets go on sale from January 15.
