Kanye West just wrapped up the North American leg of his highly acclaimed Yeezus tour, but if you didn't get a chance to see it, fear not. According to Pitchfork, a movie based on the tour is in the works and will eventually see a theatrical release.
Directed by Hype Williams, the film documents the lavish tour. A trailer for the film has been released on West's website. No other details have been release about the film, but we're curious to see what's included. Will 'Ye acknowledge his cancelled shows? Will he include his notorious rants?
Earlier this month, American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis confirmed he was working on a film with West. In an interview with VICE, Ellis said that West asked him to write a film he was working on. "I didn't want to at first. Then I listened to Yeezus. It was early summer last year and I was driving in my car. He'd given me an advance copy, and I thought, regardless of whether I'm right for this project, I want to work with whoever made this. So f**k it, I said yes. And that's how it happened. That was seven or eight months ago. We'll see what happens. I really like him as a person. I know he comes off in this performance-art way in the press, but if you're just alone with him in a room talking for three hours, it's kind of mind-blowing."
We'll update you as more information becomes available. For now, check out the Yeezus trailer here, and let us know what you think in the comments section!
