Oasis reunion could be filmed as band flooded with big money offers | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TVThe Oasis reunion could be coming to a cinema near you - with Hollywood bosses desperate to make a biopic about the Gallaghers. The formerly warring brothers set up film company Kosmic Kyte in 2021 - dropping the biggest hint yet that a reunion could be on the cards - even though they weren't talking at the time. And now they've been flooded with offers by top Hollywood bosses to make a biopic about the reunion. A source told Express.co.uk: "Both Liam and Noel have had dozens of offers from some pretty big names. "All their energy is being channelled into the reunion gigs so they're not fussed about making a biopic right now. "But the idea is on the table and it hasn't been ruled out." In 2022 Liam said that his involvement in Kosmic Kyte was to stop Noel from doing “something ridiculous”. The company produced Oasis Knebworth 1996, about the band’s iconic shows in the summer of 1996. Liam previously told how he and his brother didn’t deal with one another directly, and that his involvement in the company was to keep his brother in check. “Obviously he owns the key when it comes to the songs and that, but the image of it – I think I play an important part of [that].” The pair have both worked with a string of top directors including Asif Kapadia for their documentary Supersonic while Charlie Lightening directed hit 2019 documentary Liam Gallagher: As It Was. Simon Emmett, who photographed their reunion last month, has also directed a string of films. But film boss Andy Loveday, who runs Carnaby International, believes Dexter Fletcher could get the gig when the brothers give it the green light. Andy explained: "I would love to see this happen. There will be a tough fight over which director will work with the Gallaghers. It's the gig everyone wants. I reckon Dexter Fletcher could pull it off." Fletcher directed Elton's Rocketman and Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody - two of the biggest biopics of the past decade. Rocketman raked in over £150million at the box office while Bohemian Rhapsody made nearly £700million. Last week Oasis announced that they will reunite for a 14-date tour of the UK and Ireland in 2025 with more dates to be added. They will not, however, be headlining Glastonbury festival as was rumoured over the weekend, nor playing 10 dates at Wembley and the Etihad Stadium respectively - and the gigs will not be televised. In a joint statement, the band said: “The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.” The dates for the 2025 UK and Ireland tour are: 4, 5 July, Principality Stadium, Cardiff; 11, 12, 19 and 20 July, Heaton Park, Manchester; 25, 26 July, 2, 3 August, Wembley Stadium, London; 8, 9 August, Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh; and 16, 17 August, Croke Park, Dublin. The concerts will come 16 years after the band split acrimoniously when Noel quit before a show at a French festival, and 30 years since the release of their second album, 1995’s (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?
