Global superstars, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles
and Louis Tomlinson introduce to you their big screen debut: ONE DIRECTION:
THIS IS US. More than just a filmed concert and tour documentary, this is a chance
to get up close and personal with the world’s biggest band. Filmed while the guys
were taking their world tour to arenas around the globe -- from Mexico to Japan
to London’s famed O2 arena -- the movie mixes high-energy performance footage,
candid interviews, and behind the scenes footage to offer a one-of-a-kind
perspective into the talent, hard work and mischief that goes into being One
Direction. It’s a remarkable story of humble origins, an unprecedented rise to
fame and a fan-driven phenomenon that enabled One Direction to conquer the
world.
TriStar Pictures presents a Syco Entertainment / Modest! Production,
in association with Warrior Poets / Fulwell 73, ONE DIRECTION: THIS IS US. The film is directed by Morgan Spurlock and
produced by Simon Cowell, Adam Milano, Morgan Spurlock, and Ben Winston. Executive producers are Richard Griffiths,
Harry Magee, Will Bloomfield, Doug Merrifield, Jeremy Chilnick, and Matthew
Galkin. Tom Krueger is Director of
Photography. Pierre Takal is the
editor. The film’s original score is by
Simon Franglen.
The running time is 1 hour and 35 minutes.
FROM THE BEGINNING
In the summer of 2010, Niall Horan,
Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, and Louis Tomlinson entered Britain’s
biggest talent show “The X Factor,” as talented individual artists. At the boot
camp stage of the competition X Factor judge Simon Cowell offered the guys the
opportunity to stay in the competition as a group.
“I saw five solo artists who were
five solo stars, but would be stronger in a group, it was that simple,” says
Cowell, a producer on ONE DIRECTION: THIS IS US. “I liked each of them
individually, and something made me think they would work really well as a
group.”
Calling themselves One Direction,
they were immediate sensations. A group
of talented and cheeky guys who immediately captured a nation of young girls. They
didn’t look or sound pre-packaged, they just exuded talent, friendship and
charisma both on and off stage.
Says Cowell, “Right from the get-go,
if I’d be honest … I was very much of the attitude, ‘I’m not gonna tell you
what to do. You can probably tell me what to do,’ you know? ‘You’ve got to sort
it out for yourself, ‘cause I think you’re smart enough.’ And that’s always been
the way it’s worked with these boys. I had this just amazing confidence in
them.”
Fans responded in their thousands, flooding social media, waiting
for hours outside TV studios, and voting the boys through each round of the
competition through to the grand final. Though they came in third overall on
the show – narrowly missing the record deal awarded the first prize winner – the
boys knew instinctively that this was not the last the world would see of One
Direction.
That instinct to stay together
instantly paid off. The band signed to their “X Factor” mentor Cowell’s record
label, Syco Records and quickly got to work recording their debut album whilst
performing across the UK and Ireland on the X Factor Live Tour. A book
chronicling their experience on the road – Forever Young – went straight to
number 1 on The Times Best Seller List. The album, meanwhile, was coming
together with a stellar team of writers and producers, from Steve Mac
(Westlife, Leona Lewis) to Rami Yacoub (Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys) and
Red One (Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez).
The band’s debut album, Up All Night,
released in October 2011, was an instant smash; a feat forecast by the fact
that their first single, What Makes You Beautiful, had already become the
biggest single pre-order in Sony Music’s history. In the United States, the
boys sought North American success with a string of appearances and
performances that not only turned What Makes You Beautiful into an iTunes hit,
but led Up All Night to a feat never before achieved by a British band:
entering the Billboard chart at number one with their debut record. With three
MTV Video Music Awards, a Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Award (for Favorite UK
artist), and three MTV Europe Music Awards (including Best New Act and Best UK
& Ireland Act), it truly seemed there was no stopping their rise to the
top.
The band’s sophomore album, Take Me Home
turned 2012 into a banner year for the boys, hitting the top of pre-order
charts in 50 countries. The album’s first single, Live While We’re Young, went
straight to No. 1. All in all, Take Me Home topped the charts in 37 countries. The
Take Me Home tour, which continued into 2013, was a global sellout, taking
Niall, Zayn, Liam, Harry, and Louis to Europe, North America, Canada,
Australia, New Zealand, and Japan.
In July, they released Best Song Ever, a track written specifically
for the film. The fun and cheeky video
for the song (Directed by Ben Winston) broke records on VEVO with 12.4 million views in one day, making it the most viewed debut
video ever on the platform.
Cowell says, “What I’ve loved about
working with the boys is that they haven’t taken anything for granted, and they
still appreciate and still are in awe of what’s going on. They’ve survived, and
they’ll continue to survive because first of all, they’re smart, and secondly
they understand their audience and respect their fans. They’ve matured really,
really quickly.”
During the tour, though, the notion
of a film came together, giving the boys a chance to conquer an entirely
different medium …
MAKING THE MOVIE
When Morgan Spurlock was approached
to make a movie about One Direction, he jumped at the chance. “One of the
things I’ve always tried to do from the very beginning of my career is create
very popular documentaries,” says the Super
Size Me director. “And I think that this film, coming off the work I’ve
done in the past is the next step. Making something that’s successful to a
large audience that tells a great story, that is really intimate and gets you
into their lives, but at the same time, is also really entertaining and
engaging, with great music.”
Naturally, meeting Niall, Zayn,
Liam, Harry and Louis was important. Spurlock found the boys completely
charming but also level-headed about the phenomenon they were in the middle of
experiencing. Notes Spurlock, “They’re very fun. I think they’re incredibly
grounded considering the amount of crazy that’s surrounding their lives on a
daily basis. And I think that was one of the things that I really liked about
them.”
It’s not enough, says Spurlock, that
they’re “five good looking guys that get put together in a band. That happens
all the time. But the fact that, you know, they actually had the talent and the
ability and the drive to kind of push it as far as they have, and continue to
do, is remarkable.”
Spurlock filmed in various locales
for almost six months, including the band’s performance in Mexico City in early
June, 2013. The crew number ranged anywhere from Spurlock alone holding a
camera without even an audio person, to fully coordinated concert set-ups
involving, says the director, “an army of people.” Filming the band’s O2
performances alone were massive undertakings for someone used to the
run-and-gun nature of most documentaries. Says Spurlock, “Probably about, I
don’t know, 250 people were working on the concert when we shot at the O2, it
was massive.”
As for the behind-the-scenes footage, which runs the gamut from
backstage mischief before the show to touching hometown scenes, like Harry
working at the family bakery, those moments alone amounted to 500 hours of
material. Editing it down was challenging, but the band were instrumental in
helping Spurlock and the editors pick the most choice moments. Says Spurlock, “They’ve
given really insightful feedback about things that are very personal to them …
to things that they remembered that we shot that we have forgotten about, and
to remind us to dig and find. It was like, ‘Oh my gosh, you’re right, that was
a great moment.’”
For producer Cowell, Spurlock was the ideal choice as director
because he was never going to stage scenes or manufacture magic. “Morgan is
somebody who likes to kind of eavesdrop,” says Cowell. “He wants to pick stuff
up without people realizing that they’re being filmed and that’s his skill and
he’s very patient. It’s not about set pieces or ‘Do this for the camera.’ He’s
just put the cameras in all these different places and he’s just filmed what
it’s like being in this group. It’s fascinating.”
What ultimately emerged from the editing process was the sense that
moviegoers were going to get a special peek into the members’ lives. Adds
Spurlock, “You feel like you really do get to become a part of this journey and
these boys and this band.” It could even generate new fans, he suggests. “I
think every One Direction fan should take someone who isn’t a One Direction
fan, because I think when people see the movie, they’ll see a different side to
these boys that they probably didn’t think existed or they didn’t think they
would enjoy. And I bet they’ll convert a lot more fans than they think they
will.”
As for the decision to film the 02 concerts in 3D, Cowell says it’s
“unbelievable. The 3D is sensational. It actually makes the concert like being
there. It’s really clever.”
None of ONE DIRECTION: THIS IS US
would have happened, however, if the boys hadn’t put their faith in the
project, and from the get-go, they all believed in what could be achieved.
“There’s a tremendous amount of trust you have to have, between you
and the subjects that are in the film,” says Spurlock. “It takes time. It takes
conversations. You have to spend time with one another to talk, feel
comfortable, and know that this person is there to tell an honest story about
you, and tell a story that you ultimately want to be told. And, you know, I
give them credit. I mean, they were really open and honest with us about their
lives, their fears, about the things that were going on with them, and kind of
letting us come into their world. It’s a big undertaking, and it takes a lot of
courage, and they were fantastic about it.”
In the end, says the director, the
boys in One Direction understood that this was an opportunity to document a
special time in their lives. “They realize this movie is a time capsule,” notes
Spurlock. “They already know how special it is, and to be able to have
something like this where you can really show – whether it be your family down
the road, your kids down the road, something you just want to keep for yourself
– that really does capture the essence of this moment in its purest form.” Adds
Spurlock, “I think they’ll treasure this whole experience.”
And is he now a fan?
“Listen, I’ve seen thirty-plus One
Direction concerts at this point,” says Spurlock. “I am like a hardcore
Directioner now!”
