Because a 92-minute feature film just isn’t enough to satisfy One Direction fans, TriStar Pictures just announced they’ll be delivering an extended cut into theaters on September 13th. The One Direction: This Is Us Extended Fan Cut will include 20 more minutes of the boys – Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson – and four additional songs not originally included in the movie. Which leads to the question: why weren’t the songs included in the first cut in the first place?
Jeff Blake, Chairman, Worldwide Marketing and Distribution for Sony Pictures revealed the news, stating: “We’re overwhelmed by the response to the film, so we’re thrilled to be able to release this extended cut of the film for One Direction fans. Followers can reach out on Twitter @1DThisIsUs with the songs they’d like to hear in the film – and go to the theater on Friday to see and hear which songs make the cut.”
The One Direction: This Is Us Plot:
One Direction: This Is Us is an intimate all-access look at life on the road for the global music phenomenon. Weaved with stunning live concert footage, this inspiring feature film tells the remarkable story of Niall, Zayn, Liam, Harry and Louis’ meteoric rise to fame, from their humble hometown beginnings and competing on the X-Factor, to conquering the world and performing at London’s famed O2 Arena.
