Overview

  • Miley Cyrus's ninth album, 'Something Beautiful,' will release on May 30, featuring collaborations with Naomi Campbell and Brittany Howard.
  • The album is accompanied by a feature-length pop opera film, premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 6 and opening in theaters nationwide on June 12.
  • Cyrus initially planned an intimate performance series in forests and pyramids but pivoted to the film concept after Harrison Ford advised against the logistical and financial challenges of her original idea.
  • The film serves as Cyrus's alternative to traditional touring, designed to reduce strain from Reinke’s edema, a vocal cord condition she has opted not to treat surgically to preserve her signature voice.
  • Co-directed by Cyrus, Jacob Bixenman, and Brendan Walter, the film features 13 original songs and aims to create an immersive, communal experience for audiences.
