TWICE

Crosswalk, the event cinema arm of Bleecker Street, and Universal Pictures International have secured distribution rights for the Twice concert film This Is For… You. Crosswalk will handle the United States and Canada, while Universal Pictures International will cover international markets. The announcement places the K-pop group’s London O2 Arena performance on the big screen, with a theatrical release scheduled for Feb. 5, 2027.

A Concert Film Built Around Live Performance and Backstage Access

The movie draws from Twice’s “This Is For” world tour stop at London’s O2 Arena. Audiences can expect concert footage alongside exclusive behind-the-scenes material that goes beyond the stage. The combination aims to give fans a closer view of the group during a major tour moment.

Paul Dugdale and Hannah Lux Davis directed the film. Dugdale’s previous work includes the Stray Kids concert film “Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience,” as well as “Adele: One Night Only” and “Taylor Swift: Reputation Stadium Tour.” Davis has directed projects such as ADELA’s “Nicole Kidman” and Ariana Grande’s “thank you, next.” Live Nation Studios produced the film.

The deal follows Crosswalk and Universal Pictures Content Group’s earlier collaboration on “Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience,” another concert film centered on a global K-pop act. That release was distributed by the two companies earlier this year. Helen Parker, executive vice president of Universal Pictures Content Group, pointed to the positive reception for the Stray Kids film as a reason for continuing the partnership with Crosswalk and Live Nation.

Parker described Twice as a worldwide phenomenon and said the new film captures what makes their live shows distinctive. She also emphasized the chance for fans to experience the performance together in cinemas.

Twice's Chart History and Global Reach

Twice debuted under JYP Entertainment in 2015 and consists of nine members: Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung and Tzuyu. The group has earned a No. 1 on the Billboard 200, seven consecutive top 10 entries on that chart, and two Gold certifications plus one Platinum certification from the RIAA. Those markers underline the group’s position among the best-selling K-pop recording artists.

With the February 2027 date set, “Twice: This Is For… You” will aim to bring the scale of the O2 Arena show and its offstage moments to theaters across North America and beyond.
