Pulp: What Do You Do For An Encore? to be shown in cinemas for one night only – watch official teaser

A new Pulp film What Do You Do For An Encore? will be shown for one night only in Irish and UK cinemas on September 18.

The Sheffield band announced the details of the new film last month, alongside the announcement of their upcoming album, Live!, which is set for release August 28.

It follows Pulp’s “extraordinary journey from obscurity to cultural touchstone,” according to an official synopsis. The film, narrated by frontman Jarvis Cocker, includes footage from their biggest arena show with four decades-worth of archival material.

The film was directed by Garth Jennings, who also led the music videos for Pulp songs, ‘Help the Aged’ and ‘A Little Soul.’

After its September 18 debut, What Do You Do For An Encore? will hit Canadian cinemas on September 23 and US cinemas on September 24. It will then be released on MUBI later this year.

In March, they released a three-track EP, The Man Comes Around – featuring a cover of Johnny Cash’s song of the same name.

The band are also set to perform at All Together Now on July 30.
