Liam and Noel Gallagher Skip Oasis Documentary Press Conference at Venice Film Festival

In news that might not surprise anyone, Liam and Noel Gallagher skipped the Venice Film Festival press conference for their upcoming Disney+ documentary “Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger” on Saturday.
The two brothers — who reunited last year for their massive “Live ’25” tour after a 15-year feud — arrived on the Lido in a boat, took photos for the film’s photocall and then left before the conference.
Asked during the presser why the Gallaghers weren’t on hand, co-director Will Lovelace said: “They were here a second ago having their photograph taken, so they are here,” but did not elaborate further on why they didn’t participate.
Representatives for Oasis and Disney did not immediately respond to Variety‘s request for comment.
Liam and Noel have been press shy as a pair since their reunion, only sitting for an interview together for “Don’t Look Back in Anger” — their first in 20 years. The documentary, which is world premiering at Venice on Saturday night, releases in theaters Sept. 11 before bowing on Disney+ later this year, boasts footage of the band both backstage and onstage.
The brothers also may have wanted to dodge questions regarding rumors about a new tour, with the band posting cryptic teasers on social media the past two days. Noel Gallagher also nodded to a potential 2027 tour in an interview with Talksport recently, saying: “Let’s put it this way: there’s no football tournament on next year, so we’ve got to do something in the summer, right?”
In an interview with Variety, Southern and Lovelace broke down how they went about capturing the Liam and Noel’s reunion, including setting up hidden cameras in their rehearsal space.
“We didn’t want it to feel mediated. We didn’t want it to feel like there’s an annoying camera crew running around getting in their way,” Southern said. “And we were aware of how sensitive it was, and that this was literally the first time they’d been in a room together for a prolonged period for 15 years.”
However, don’t expect the Gallagher Brothers to get all mushy in the documentary. “It’s the Gallaghers, it’s not ‘Dawson’s Creek,'” Southern added. “They’re not gonna sit down and talk about their emotions.”
