Lady Gaga dropped a bomb on Instagram recently, letting all her fans know that she’s overseeing the edit of a concert film.
“The Chromatica Ball,” taken from the Academy Award winner’s 2022 20-city North American concert tour — her first since the Joanne World Tour of 2017 — will be a chance for people who missed the short tour to experience Gaga’s artistry up close. No word yet on how this project will be made available, but seeing as how she’s a big-screen presence now thanks to “A Star Is Born,” “House of Gucci” and the upcoming “Joker: Folie à Deux,” it would be a thrill to see this show on a big screen with concert-level sound. The presence of concert films in movie theaters is something special that seems to have been largely left in the past, save for concert footage in music documentaries. Let’s hope “Chromatica” resurrects it.
