Overview
- Paramount set a special premiere for Billie Eilish – Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live in 3D) at Westwood’s Village Theatre on May 6 ahead of a May 8 nationwide release.
- Dolby refurbished the theater’s projection booth for the event to deliver immersive 3D at the highest technical standard.
- The screening forms part of a limited summer slate that will raise support for a 12‑month renovation starting in the fall led by the American Cinematheque and Jason Reitman’s Village Directors Circle.
- James Cameron and Billie Eilish co-directed the concert film, which was captured during her sold‑out world tour.
- The Village Theatre is a 95‑year‑old Los Angeles landmark built in 1930, and the preservation push follows years of premiere use and the 2024 closure of the nearby Bruin.
