Mercury Studios' "George Michael: The Faith Tour" will incorporate never-before-seen footage from the original 1988 European leg of the Faith tour, featuring remastered and remixed visuals, for its worldwide theatrical release later this year. Previously, on March 16, Trafalgar Releasing announced a worldwide theatrical release this spring for "Power to the People: John & Yoko/Plastic Ono Band with Elephant’s Memory and Special Guests – Live at the One to One Concert New York City 1972." Earlier, on March 15, the studio revealed "George Michael: The Faith Tour" would focus on Michael's 1988 Paris concert supporting his solo album *Faith*, also targeting a worldwide theatrical release this year. This followed an announcement on March 11 by George Michael Entertainment and Universal Music Group-owned Mercury Studios that the restored and remastered feature, based on a long-lost film, would launch on big screens globally in 2026, accompanied by an 18-track album of previously unheard performances. Prior to these content announcements, on March 5, Universal Music Group’s Mercury Studios experienced layoffs, with MD Kelly Sweeney and several senior staff departing the London-based TV and movie studio.
