Liam and Noel Gallagher were absent from the press conference for their upcoming Disney+ documentary \u201cOasis: Don\u2019t Look Back in Anger\u201d during the Venice Film Festival on Saturday.<\/p>\n
The brothers, who ended a 15-year feud by reuniting for their highly successful \u201cLive \u201925\u201d tour last year, traveled to the Lido by boat. They participated in the film\u2019s official photocall but departed before the scheduled media briefing began.<\/p>\n
Co-director Will Lovelace addressed the absence during the presser, noting that the musicians had just finished posing for photos. \u201cThey were here a second ago having their photograph taken, so they are here,\u201d Lovelace said, offering no further explanation for their departure. Representatives for both Oasis and Disney did not immediately return requests for comment.<\/p>\n
The documentary, which premiered at Venice on Saturday night, features extensive backstage and live footage of the band. It is set to hit theaters on September 11 before streaming on Disney+ later this year. The film includes the siblings\u2019 first joint interview in two decades, as they have generally avoided appearing together in press settings since their reconciliation.<\/p>\n
Their absence may also reflect a desire to sidestep speculation regarding future tours. Recent cryptic social media posts from the band, combined with a recent comment from Noel to Talksport hinting at a 2027 schedule, have fueled rumors of new performances. \u201cLet\u2019s put it this way: there\u2019s no football tournament on next year, so we\u2019ve got to do something in the summer, right?\u201d Noel said.<\/p>\n
In a prior interview with Variety, directors Matt Southern and Lovelace discussed their approach to capturing the reunion. To maintain authenticity, they installed hidden cameras in rehearsal spaces. \u201cWe didn\u2019t want it to feel mediated. We didn\u2019t want it to feel like there\u2019s an annoying camera crew running around getting in their way,\u201d Southern explained, noting the sensitivity of filming the brothers after a 15-year separation.<\/p>\n
Southern also cautioned viewers against expecting sentimental revelations. \u201cIt\u2019s the Gallaghers, it\u2019s not \u2018Dawson\u2019s Creek,\u2019\u201d he said. \u201cThey\u2019re not gonna sit down and talk about their emotions.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
