Billie Eilish's 'Hit Me Hard and Soft' tour just wrapped up, but it isn't exactly the end for fans. 

The singer has announced that 'Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Movie' will be coming to a cinema near you in 2026.

"This has been one of my favorite tours everrrrrr and being able to capture it and co-direct this film with @jamescameronofficial has truly been a dream come true. Can’t wait for you all to see it," she said. 

The James Cameron-directed concert movie will be released in 3D. Cameron is an Oscar winner and has helmed films such as 'Titanic' and 'Avatar'

"An honor and a blast to co-direct the 3D movie of the amazing show @billieeilish has been performing all over the world," he wrote on Instagram.

The documentary film is scheduled for release on March 20, 2026. Eilish's 'Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour' began in Canada in September 2024 and ended on Sunday, November 23, in America.  

Eilish also made stops in Australia, Sweden, Norway, Germany, Italy, France, England, Spain, Japan and more.

She announced her concert film at her final stop in San Francisco. She showed the audience parts of the trailer.

The tour, which consisted of over 100 shows, supported the 'Ocean Eyes' singer's third studio album, 'Hit Me Hard and Soft'. 

Some of the hits on the album included 'Lunch', 'Birds of a Feather', 'Chihiro' and 'Wildflower'. 

It was nominated for several Grammys, including 'Album of the Year' and 'Best Pop Vocal Album. 

“I feel like this album is me. It’s not a character,” she told Rolling Stone magazine about the album. "It feels like the 'When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?' version of me. It feels like my youth and who I was as a kid.”

'When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?' is her first studio album. She wrote the project with her brother Finneas O'Connell. He also worked on her second album, 'Happier Than Ever'. 

O'Connell has already hinted that he'll be working on her fourth as well. Fans are already counting down to her next album, which has yet to be announced.

"Part of me doesn’t want the tour to end, but another part of me is living for the new album era," one fan commented on Instagram. 

They are also looking forward to  'Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Movie'.

'I’m sat. The theater employees are scared and asking me to leave because it’s not March 20, 2026 yet but I’m simply too seated."

Other stars whose concert films have been released on the big screen include Taylor Swift and Beyoncé.
