Renaissance, Beyoncé's world-hit tour, just concluded after six whirlwind months during which the singer broke many records and recieved widespread critical acclaim. But it's not over yet: the tour is taking cinematic form and coming to theaters soon.

Officially titled Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé, the concert film traces the tour from its inception to its execution. The film's description reads: "It is about Beyoncé’s intention, hard work, involvement in every aspect of the production, her creative mind and purpose to create her legacy, and master her craft."

The singer posted the trailer for the film, writing on Instagram: "Be careful what you ask for, ‘cause I just might comply." Fans aren't complaining.

The film, shot by British photographer and filmmaker Nadia Lee Cohen, is set to make its debut in theatres on December 1. It has a run-time of 2 hours and 40 minutes, and tickets are currently available on the AMC website. AMC is also backing The Eras Tour documentary, which takes viewers behind-the-scenes of Taylor Swift's headline-making 2023 tour.

A glimpse at the documentary shows stunning concert footage, practice sessions with daughter and fellow performer Blue Ivy, and sees Beyoncé talking fans through the creative process. "The goal for this tour," she says, "was to create a place where everyone is free."
