George Michael: The Faith Tour is being lined up for a global big screen rollout, with footage taken from a previously unseen 14 camera shoot of Michael’s performance at Paris’ Bercy Arena in 1988. A press release bills the project as a tour de force in archival film-making, celebrating Michael’s ambition and artistry at its peak.

The film will be directed by the singer’s longtime collaborators Andy Morahan and David Austin. The project comes from George Michael Entertainment and Mercury Studios, with release date and distribution details yet to be revealed.

The film will be presented alongside a new short film from photographer Mary McCartney which includes voiceover from a previously unheard Michael interview as well as behind the scenes footage of Michael’s iconic Faith video by American photographer Herb Ritts.

An 18-track live album titled The Faith Tour is also on the way and will feature previously unreleased Wham! recordings as well as Michael solo material.
