From his earliest beginnings to the very last days of his life, the Ron Howard-directed film follows the renowned singer over the course of his prolific career, revealing previously unknown details about the legendary tenor; and harnessing the incredible sounds and music from the man credited for bringing an “elite art form to the masses.” The June 4th event, which is the lead-up to the film’s North American theatrical release on June 7th, includes a special introduction from Howard, in which he speaks to his unique role as director and personal connection to the project.

“As a film maker, and more importantly a lover of music, Luciano Pavarotti’s story has always interested me, and I am honored to be able to share his life, music and personality with audiences everywhere,” states Ron Howard. “He revolutionized opera by bringing it to all people and I am grateful to pay tribute to his legacy.”

“We are thrilled to partner with CBS Films to give U.S. audiences the exclusive first look at Pavarotti,” says Fathom Events CEO Ray Nutt. “Our large fanbases of classical music and documentary lovers will come together at their local cinema to enjoy this highly anticipated film.”
