Following in the steps of fellow Disney teen icon Miley Cyrus, the Jonas Brothers will get their own 3-D concert film in theaters in 2009.
The film will feature footage from the group’s upcoming “Burning Up” concert tour, as well as a behind-the-scenes look at the lives of bandmates Kevin, Joe and Nick.
The production team behind the phenomenally successfully “Hannah
Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour” will reprise their
roles behind the camera, with Bruce Hendricks directing and Art Repola
producing.
Additional producers include Phil McIntyre, Kevin Jonas Sr., Johnny Wright and Alan Sacks.
“More than just a concert, this film will take moviegoers inside the band’s
creative process, and present them in a very intimate and entertaining way,” says Oren Aviv, president of Walt Disney Studios Motion Picture Production.
The Jonas Brothers tour will kick off in Toronto on July 4; in addition, the band also can be seen this summer in the Disney Channel original movie “Camp Rock” on June 20. The trio has a Disney Channel series,
“J.O.N.A.S.!’ debuting in the fall, and its next album is due to drop in
August.
The “Hannah Montana” film is the top-grossing concert film of all time, earning $65 million to date.
