Reports suggest that Oasis rockers Noel and Liam Gallagher could see their much-trumpeted musical reunion brought to the screen via documentary. The UK’s Sun newspaper reports that Apple TV+ bosses are keen to film the previously warring brothers who have put their 15-year animosity to bed for a string of record-breaking gigs in the UK next summer.
Oasis documentary in the pipeline?
A documentary about Oasis would follow in the footsteps of Apple’s award-winning documentary Get Back, about the making of the Beatles’ 1970 Let It Be. The Sun quoted one insider revealing that Apple faces competition from both Amazon Prime and Netflix, but remains determined to bag the brothers’ behind-the-scenes antics in the lead up to the concerts: “This is set to be the film of the decade, with AppleTV+ proposing huge money.”
Since announcing the concerts, Oasis recently returned to the top of the UK music charts. The band has not performed together since 2009 when a backstage row between the Gallagher brothers saw songwriter Noel quit the band.
They are set to have 17 gigs next year across the UK and Ireland, beginning in Cardiff in July. Tickets were in such demand that many fans were left disappointed or paying hundreds of dollars more than anticipated, due to “dynamic pricing” on the sales websites, and a government watchdog is currently investigating the ticket sales process.
Meanwhile, weeks after the Gallagher brothers announced they had reunited to bring Oasis on a 17-date UK and Ireland tour, their children were snapped together at the London Fashion Week. It indicated that the family feud is now in the rear view. Noel’s daughter Anaïs, 24, attended the Burberry show with her cousins Lennon, 25, Gene, 24, and Molly-Moorish Gallagher, 26.
