Hans Zimmer is bringing his live orchestra and concert to the big screen with “Hans Zimmer & Friends: Diamond in the Desert,” which features performances of music from “Dune,” “Gladiator,” “interstellar,” “The Lion King” and more. The performances took place at Dubai’s Coca-Cola Arena, and the film is interspersed with conversations with Billie Eilish, Christopher Nolan, FINNEAS, Pharelle Williams, Timothée Chalamet and more.

“The Hans Zimmer Live tour has been one of the most exciting experiences of my career, and I’m thrilled to bring it to an audience in cinemas globally with ‘Diamond in the Desert.’ Seeing these compositions transform from their big-screen origins to the live show then back to the big screen is a delightful full-circle moment. I hope audiences enjoy this peek behind the curtain as much as we enjoyed making it.”

Hans Zimmer is booked by CAA worldwide. He’s managed by Remote Control Productions.

“It was such a pleasure and honor to collaborate so closely with Hans Zimmer on this movie, and an extraordinary and thrilling opportunity for us to compose pictures to such a diverse and wide-ranging palette of emotional music and performance,” Paul Dugdale said in a statement. “The sheer scale and breadth of this film is a testament to Hans’ endless enthusiasm for ideas, and his commitment to the shared vision and ambition for how we present his greatest ever compositions. His trust in us felt immeasurable and I am incredibly proud to have been part of such a creative team and pioneering project.”

Among 146 headline reports submitted to Pollstar’s Boxoffice, Zimmer has sold 1.3 million tickets grossing a total $142 million.
