Don’t get too cozy as December starts — Beyoncé’s new film is hitting theaters this weekend.
The BeyHive has been buzzing about “Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé,” which showcases her summer world tour. Though the film is set to drop Friday, Dec. 1, select theaters in the area will have showings on Thursday – selling out almost as quickly as D.C. can freeze for the mute challenge.
For anyone who went to the second night of the Renaissance concert at FedExField in Maryland, reliving the highlights of Beyoncé’s tour in theaters may be cathartic and fun. Those fans can sing “I’m a Survivor” after putting up with hot crowds, storms and a long rain delay.
It’s a two-hour and 48-minute film, so bring your best friend and your Queen Bey energy.
