If you missed the opportunity to catch Billie Eilish during her sold-out Hit Me Hard and Soft world tour, you’ll soon have the chance to experience the spectacle from the comfort of your local cinema.
On Monday, April 13, the ten-time Grammy and two-time Oscar winner unveiled the official trailer for Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live in 3D). The three-minute preview offers an intimate look at the collaboration between Eilish and legendary filmmaker James Cameron as they prepare to translate the high-energy production for the big screen.
The teaser highlights a seamless partnership between the two Academy Award icons as they navigate the creative and technical demands of filming a concert in immersive 3D. “It’s your show, it’s your creative vision,” Cameron remarks early in the footage. The duo discusses the intricacies of capturing the scale of Eilish’s set design, with Cameron promising, “This is going to blow people’s minds.”
Beyond the technical mastery, the trailer provides a rare, grounded glimpse into Eilish’s headspace before a massive performance. “The day of a show is, for me—it just feels like any day at all,” she reflects. “I just feel like I’m going to hang out with my friends.”
The footage also treats fans to a preview of the concert film’s cinematography, showcasing sprawling shots of the arena and crisp, dynamic angles of the stage. Intercut with scenes of Eilish both on and off the stage—set to iconic tracks like “Bad Guy” and the newer fan-favorite “Chihiro”—the trailer declares: “Prepare for her vision / her words / her world.”
Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live in 3D), co-directed by Cameron and Eilish, arrives in theaters on May 8. Experience the official trailer below.
