What’s up?
It’s Sussan Mourad here with Clevver News
and according to multiple reports, Ariana
Grande has sparked a multi-million dollar
bidding war after hinting that a Sweetener
Tour film was in the works.
It all started last week when a fan tweeted
at Ari saying “hmmm tell us about the swt
movie ? @ArianaGrande”
Ari crypictly responded saying “no” with
the sunglass emoji.
Then later when Ariana was doing a Twitter
Q&A about her new perfume, one fan circled
back to the Sweetener movie writing “we
just got the new perfume tea might as well
pour the whole damn pot”
But Ari kept her lips sealed about the movie
saying “see.
i gtg. u all get me too damn excited okay
? bye i love u”
And obviously the idea of a Sweetener Tour
film sent fans into a frenzy.
People took to Twitter to share their excitement
with tweets like this one that said “if
they for real are releasing a ariana grande
sweetener tour movie..
I will simply ascend to heaven”
And this person who wrote “she about to
win an oscar we both know.”
But it wasn’t just fans that were excited
about the potential movie, streaming platforms
also got in on the fun and are now apparently
fighting over who will get the rights to Ari’s
highly anticipated film.
According to The Sun, there are multiple big
players desperate to get their hands on the
rights with Netflix currently leading the
pack.
A music insider told The Sun that quote, “Ariana’s
team is negotiating a huge deal between a
number of big hitters, with Netflix and YouTube
both showing interest.
Netflix has put forward a starting offer of
[over 5.2 million dollars] to get the rights.
The deal is being negotiated by Ari’s closest
advisers, led by Scooter Braun.”
And the source didn’t just talk about the
deal, they also revealed some inside scoop
about the content of the movie.
It seems like it will be documentary style
as the insider said quote, “[Ariana] had
cameras following her every move on the Sweetener
World Tour last year.
Along with her performances, Ariana was filmed
backstage, while traveling and during down
time.
It will be a brutally honest and raw depiction
of how tough life can be on the road but will
include the happier, heart-warming times too.”
The Sun also reported that the film will follow
Ariana from the moment she released her record-breaking
2019 album, Thank U, Next through the end
of her tour.
So basically it sounds like it would be an
entire year behind the scenes of Ariana’s
life which fans would certainly love to see!
And this wouldn’t be the first time Ari
has worked on a project like this, back in
2018 she created a YouTube docu-series that
followed her on the road called the “Dangerous
Woman Diaries.”
“With the Dangerous Woman Tour we wanted
to do something that’s like so simple visually
and just more focused on making people feel
included and celebrated and safe.”
And fans are now getting in on the conversation
about what streaming platform they’d like
to see a Sweetener Tour doc on.
One fan wrote quote, “I want it on YouTube.”
Another person disagreed writing “we stay
winning.
just put it on netflix and move on.
we need this”
This fan doesn’t seem to care where it streams,
but they are just excited for Ari writing
quote, “yeno she’s THAT icon when 2 of
the biggest streaming platforms of all time
r fighting over ha”
And this person even made their own trailer
with her concert footage and used the Netflix
logo!
“I see it, I like it, I want it, I got it,
Welcome to the Sweetener World Tour.”
So while it’s not 100% clear where Ari’s
Sweetener Tour movie will be streaming, it’s
clear fans are excited about it.
Obviously, she hasn’t formally announced
anything yet aside from her coy responses
on Twitter, but fingers crossed she does soon!
We will keep you guys posted as these deals
continue to unfold.
