The premiere date of the film about David Bowie is known
The legendary musician's career spanned more than five decades
The documentary film "Moonage Daydream" about David Bowie, one of the most important British rock musicians of all time, will arrive in cinemas worldwide on September 16, British media reported.
The film has been described as a "cinematic odyssey" that will depict the life of the musical legend and shed new light on the various art forms that Bowie explored in his musical creations, such as dance, painting, sculpture, screenwriting, and live theatre. As many as 48 Bowie tracks will be presented in this documentary. "Moonage Daydream" was directed, written, edited, and produced by Brett Morgen.
David Bowie's musical career spanned more than five decades. His most significant album is "The Rise and The Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars" from 1972. He passed away on January 10, 2016, two days after his 69th birthday, when his last album "Blackstar" was released.
Morgen has been working on a film about Bowie for the last four years, for which the official title is “Moonage Daydream”. A source close to the production enigmatically describes it as "neither a documentary nor a biography, but an impressive cinematic experience built, in part, on thousands of hours of never-before-seen material." Most importantly, the film was made with the support and cooperation of the David Bowie family.

In the trailer, we can see parts of David Bowie's performance, and according to executive producer and former Warner Bros. president Bill Gerber, the film is "a sonic and visual extravagance to be experienced on the big screen with state-of-the-art audio." The film "Moonage Daydream" contains 48 Bowie songs, and there are never seen recordings from the musicians' concerts.
David Robert Hayward-Jones, known under the pseudonym David Bowie, was one of the world's most famous musicians. His career spanned more than five decades, he was a member of more than 10 bands, he sold more than 140 million albums, and his distinctive "stamp" was a classy fluttering spirit, magnetic charm and charisma, and a penchant for playing with style and image. He was like a chameleon, known for his dramatic costumes and often unusual stage makeup.
