After the success of big-box concert films such as Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour and Renaissance: A Film By Beyoncé, Lil Nas X is taking us down the old town road in his own in-depth documentary from HBO. Titled Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero, the documentary will premiere on Max on Saturday (Jan. 27), and coincides with his latest new single, giving fans the opportunity to explore the “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” singer’s rise to fame and debut tour.
Divided into three acts — Rebirth, Transformation and Becoming — the movie chronicles the “Industry Baby” singer’s life growing up in Atlanta, his rebirth as a musician and his place within the community of Black queer icons. Fans will also get behind-the-scenes footage of Lil Nas X throughout his debut tour, which spanned 60 days across North America and Europe.
