Ghost have shared the official trailer for their debut feature film, Rite Here Rite Now. Taking their music to the next level, the feature combines concert footage with narrative storytelling, offering a unique experience for fans. Directed by Tobias Forge and Alex Ross Perry, the film highlights Ghost’s captivating performances at Los Angeles’s Kia Forum. Tickets are on sale for screenings on June 20 and June 22. The original soundtrack drops on July 26.
Forge comments:
“Over a decade ago when GHOST got signed to Loma Vista, Tom Whalley (owner and CEO) asked what the story of the band was. He felt telling a story was vital in order to get new fans engaged. I said that because we were a new ‘baby’ band and more importantly we were an anonymous baby band, there wasn’t really a compelling story to tell. Not yet anyway. But I told him that if he wanted a story, I could come up with one. This film is the fruit of that conversation.”
Director Alex Ross Perry adds:
“Collaborating with Tobias to expand the saga of GHOST into a feature film has been a wicked delight. This movie allowed us to be inspired by everything from silent horror to ‘The Great Rock N’ Roll Swindle’, from Ralph Bakshi to KISS ‘Alive II’. The influences were many, but above all, the ultimate goal was to make a one-of-a-kind feast not only for GHOST fans, but all lovers of the cinematic alchemy between rock spectacle and spooky delights.”
Kymberli Frueh, SVP of programming and content acquisitions at Trafalgar Releasing states:
“The mystery, mystique, and musical style of GHOST has created such a dedicated allegiance to the band. Our cinemas provide the perfect immersive experience to unite fans as a community and experience GHOST’s elaborate performances with big screens and big sound.”
