Added Colin Smeeton, President, Authentic Studios, “When we started this project with Sony Music Vision and Bazmark, Baz set out to reimagine how audiences would experience Elvis—an ambition he has fully delivered on. Partnering with Neon and Universal Pictures Content Group to share Baz’s vision globally is a true milestone for Authentic Studios.”

'EPiC' gets Neon / Universal Pictures distribution: Variety reports that 'EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert' has been procured by Neon and Universal Pictures for domestic and international rights, respectively.
Neon will release the film theatrically in the US and Universal Pictures International will release the film internationally in 2026.
Neon is an independent company but has distributed box-office hits such as 'Parasite', 'Anatomy of a Fall', 'Longlegs' and 'Anora'.
From Sony Music Vision, Bazmark and Authentic Studios, Baz Luhrmann’s “EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert” film debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival.
Luhrmann said, “From the first day my editor, Jonathan Redmond, and I encountered this rare and never-before-seen footage of Elvis almost 8 years ago, it has been our mission that Elvis should finally fulfil his unrealised dream to tour around the world.
Along with our incredible partners at Authentic Studios and Sony Music Vision, we created an experience that is not just a documentary and not just a concert film; it’s ‘EPiC.’
Now, I could not be more thrilled that our passion is matched by Neon and Universal, who will ensure this film will be seen from local cinemas in small towns, to the biggest screens in the biggest cities in the world.
I personally can’t wait to TCB and take this show on the road.”
