October 2026 is shaping up to be a monumental month for music fans. On October 9, Disney+ and Hulu will exclusively premiere “Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger,” a landmark documentary chronicling the legendary Britpop band’s historic reunion. With its theatrical run already breaking records and the streaming release packed with exclusive bonus content, this film is poised to become one of the year’s biggest music events.
From Cinemas to Streaming: A Record-Breaking Journey
The documentary, directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace and written by “Peaky Blinders” creator Steven Knight, first hit select IMAX and cinemas worldwide on September 11, 2026. It didn’t take long for the film to make its mark. During its opening weekend alone, it grossed £2.66 million at the UK and Irish box office, taking the number one spot for a documentary. By late September, it had become the UK’s highest-grossing documentary feature film of 2026, with a global box office exceeding $11 million.
Critics and audiences alike have embraced the film. It currently holds a 97% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes with an audience score of 98%. Described as an “unapologetically uplifting account of the biggest musical event of 2025,” the documentary charts Liam and Noel Gallagher’s triumphant reunion tour, Oasis Live ’25.
The Reunion Story: A 15-Year Feud Comes to an End
At its heart, “Don’t Look Back In Anger” is a story of reconciliation. The film follows the Gallagher brothers from their awkward rehearsals in Cardiff to their emotional reconnection by the end of the tour. It features the first joint interview with Liam and Noel in more than 25 years, offering unprecedented access to the brothers’ journey back to each other.
The documentary captures the raw, human side of their reunion. As Noel Gallagher recently revealed, the reunion began with a casual “how you doing” after a 15-year feud. The film doesn’t shy away from the emotional weight of the moment—it’s a story about family, forgiveness, and the power of music to heal old wounds.
Exclusive Bonus Content on Disney+
For fans who missed the theatrical run—or for those who want to experience the magic again—the streaming release comes with a treasure trove of exclusive extras. Disney+ and Hulu will host never-before-seen footage, including additional material from the joint interview with Liam and Noel Gallagher.
Perhaps most exciting for fans, the streaming version will feature full performances of “Wonderwall” and “Slide Away,” two of Oasis’s most beloved songs. These complete performances were not included in the theatrical cut, making the Disney+ release a must-watch for any true Oasis fan. The bonus content also includes material from the “D’You Know What I Mean?” sessions, further enriching the documentary’s portrait of the band.
Why This Is One of October’s Biggest Music Events
The timing of the streaming release is no accident. Tickets for Oasis’ next round of tour dates, including some U.S. shows, were snapped up just two weeks before the documentary lands on Disney+. The film serves as both a nostalgic look back at the 2025 reunion and a perfect primer for fans gearing up for the next chapter of Oasis’s comeback.
The cultural impact is already evident. Radio X is bringing back its “Gallagher-only” station, Radio X 90s, from October 9 to 11 to celebrate the documentary’s arrival. The film has resonated far beyond the Oasis fanbase, with Steven Knight noting that it has encouraged families to reconcile—a testament to its emotional power.
In a year crowded with music documentaries, “Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger” stands apart. It’s not just a concert film or a behind-the-scenes feature; it’s a story about two brothers who found their way back to each other after 15 years apart. And with the streaming release offering exclusive performances and intimate interview footage, October 9 is shaping up to be a date that every music fan should mark on their calendar.
Whether you’re a longtime Oasis devotee or a newcomer curious about one of rock’s greatest reunions, this documentary promises to be more than just a film—it’s an event.
