James Cameron and Billie Eilish presented their 3D concert film of her Hit Me Hard and Soft tour at its UK premiere in Leicester Square.
Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live in 3D) had its UK premiere at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square on Tuesday 28 April 2026. James Cameron and Billie Eilish, who directed the concert film together, presented it there.
Cameron was born in Kapuskasing, Ontario, in 1954 and moved to California at seventeen. His short Xenogenesis, in 1978, led to The Terminator, then Aliens and Titanic.
Titanic won him the Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director and Best Film Editing. With Avatar and Avatar: The Way of Water, it stands among the five highest-grossing films ever made.
Eilish, born in Los Angeles in 2001, first drew notice in 2015 with “Ocean Eyes”. Her first album topped the charts in Britain and America in 2019. She has won two Academy Awards for Best Original Song, for “What Was I Made For?” and “No Time to Die”.
The film records the Manchester dates of her 2025 tour for Hit Me Hard and Soft, an album released in May 2024 without advance singles. It is her third concert film.
London saw it eight days before its Los Angeles premiere, and Paramount released it in cinemas on 8 May.
