Universal Pictures Content Group and Bleecker Street’s event cinema division Crosswalk announced today that they have acquired international and North American rights, respectively, to “Twice: This Is for… You,” set for a worldwide theatrical release on 5 February 2027. The film, produced by Live Nation Studios, will be released by Crosswalk in the US and Canada and by Universal Pictures International across international territories. The release builds on the companies’ successful event cinema partnership following “Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience” earlier this year.

“Twice: This Is for… You” captures global K-pop phenomenon Twice live at London’s O2 Arena during their acclaimed “This Is for” world tour, combining spectacular concert footage with exclusive behind-the-scenes access to one of the world’s most influential female groups.

Directed by award-winning filmmakers Paul Dugdale (“Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience,” “Adele: One Night Only,” “Taylor Swift: Reputation Stadium Tour”) and Hannah Lux Davis (ADELA’s “Nicole Kidman” and Ariana Grande’s “thank you, next”), and produced by Live Nation Studios, the film offers fans a front-row seat to Twice’s electrifying O2 Arena performance. Featuring all nine members, the film captures the groundbreaking tour that saw Twice make history as the first K-pop group to perform on a 360-degree stage throughout an entire world tour, delivering a spectacular show hailed as a “dazzling feast for the senses.”

Bringing the scale, energy and spectacle of Twice’s live show to the big screen, “Twice: This Is for… You” promises fans around the world an immersive cinematic experience and a chance to experience the “This Is for” tour like never before.

Formed under JYP Entertainment in 2015, Twice is a nine-member global K-pop group consisting of Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu. One of the best-selling K-pop recording artists of all time, Twice has reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200, earned seven consecutive top 10 entries on the chart, and received two Gold and one Platinum certification from the RIAA. The group also holds the U.S. record for pure album sales by a female K-pop act.

Twice made history as the first female K-pop group to perform at stadiums in North America, selling out SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and MetLife Stadium in New York. In Japan, the group became the first overseas female artist to headline both Japan’s National Stadium and Nissan Stadium. Twice has also performed on major global stages including Billboard Women in Music, Amazon Music Live, Lollapalooza Chicago, and the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, and contributed “TAKEDOWN” to the soundtrack of Netflix’s animated film KPop Demon Hunters.
