Rite Here Rite Now will have a soundtrack companion
Trafalgar Releasing has launched the global trailer for Ghost’s debut film Rite Here Rite Now. As previously announced, the film will premiere in cinemas worldwide on June 20th and 22nd as tickets are available now. Additional screenings may vary by territory. Shot throughout Ghost’s two sold-out shows at Los Angeles’ hallowed Kia Forum, the film fully immerses viewers in the technicolor melodrama of the vaunted live ritual that has helped to propel Sweden’s foremost theatrical rock export to Grammy-winning, chart-topping, arena-headlining status the world over.
Rite Here Rite Now: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack will be released worldwide on July 26th via Loma Vista Recordings. A fitting 18-song complement to Ghost’s debut feature film, the band’s first-ever original soundtrack will be available on all formats with pre-orders including the soundtrack’s live version of “Absolution,” captured at that now-legendary two-night stand at the Forum, as an instant grat track.
Rite Here Rite Now is so much more than a concert movie. The film combines live performance from the two-night finale of the band’s Re-ImperaTour USA 2023 with a narrative story that picks up plot threads from the band’s long-running Chapters series. The result is an utterly unique phantasmagorical blend: Flesh and bone renditions of favorites from all five of Ghost’s albums as well as the RIAA platinum-certified “Mary On A Cross” and more are interwoven with the silver screen debuts of a few faces familiar to the band’s legions of fans—all interacting behind the scenes with the band’s Papa Emeritus IV, as his future and fate lay in the hands of the Ministry.
Rite Here Rite Now is directed by Ghost’s Tobias Forge and Alex Ross Perry and is produced by Popecorn Cinematic Pictures. Producers include Kristen Mulderig, Rick Sales, Craig Butta and Jonas Åkerlund.
