George Michael Takes a Pop Star Victory Lap in New Trailer for ‘The Faith Tour’ Concert Film

George Michael wows a Parisian crowd with some of his biggest hits in the official trailer for the pop star’s posthumous concert film, George Michael: The Faith Tour. 

The new clip offers one of the best looks yet at the previously unreleased, and restored, footage of Michael’s two shows at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy (now the Accor Arena) during the European leg of the singer’s 1988 Faith Tour. At that point, Michael was hitting new heights as a solo artist following the release of his blockbuster debut Faith the year before. 

The trailer fittingly begins with a snippet of Michael performing “Careless Whisper,” technically a song from his Wham! days, but one that helped pave the way for his move to solo superstardom. The clip then features a trio of Faith smashes like “Father Figure,” “I Want Your Sex,” and, of course, the album’s title track.

“I suppose what ‘faith’meant to me was that life was still gonna deliver,” Michael says in an archival interview included in the clip.

George Michael: The Faith Tour was directed by Andy Morahan and David Austin. It was assembled from recently rediscovered footage taken from a 14-camera shoot on 35mm film over Michael’s two nights at the Palais Omnisports. The film is set to arrive in theaters on Dec. 11. 

Before each theatrical showing of The Faith Tour, fans will also get the chance to see a new short film by Mary McCartney, Finding Faith. The short is anchored by a VoiceOver from Michael taken from a previously unreleased interview. It’ll also boast previously unseen photos taken by Herb Ritts and behind-the-scenes footage from the “Faith” music video.
