Unshatter Official Announcement

[LeonardoMF93]

Canadian friends, tickets are already on sale at Landmark and Cineplex.

 

I already got mine!

[Darkstryder]

Do we know if at some point the movie will be released on streaming/DVD/bluray etc.? (or even youtube)

 

I’m torn. On the one hand I really want to see it and there is a viewing near me. On the other hand there is exactly one viewing and I had other (important) plans set up at the exact same time already.

It will eventually happen but probably not anytime soon, definitely not this year. I think we would have to wait for it at least few months. YouTube? Yeah, probably Apple, Amazon and few others too.

[Cesar656]

I also think it will be released on platforms at some points, the band saying it wont is just to create a bit of FOMO, i would do the same ngl

[Trumtram]

As if they wouldn't try to make more money with it after the cinema tour. It will be out there either way, whether officially or not.

[LPLStaff]

They should do something exclusive for the cinema to get people there.

 

Well, we say that and still 19 years later there's that MTM "making of" footage from Webster Hall's theater showing we haven't seen. They should absolutely put this on YouTube in May 2027. Or even sell it. https://linkinpedia.com/wiki/Webster_Hall_2007#Extra_Minutes_To_Midnight_Studio_Footage

Imagine if they end up shelving Unshatter film and keep it as a exclusive to the cinemas 😂😂😂 

 

That would be fucking crazy and for sure they can do it again.

Considering the risks, who here is going to volunteer to secretly record Unshatter to save it forever if they decide to keep it theater-only? 🤣

Or they could just... release a movie the normal way in cinemas and on streaming services later on. It would be so stupid to make a freaking MOVIE and then just shelf it.

This would be potential material for inclusion in a possible MTM20 box set.

Every show has a story behind it—usually a stressful one. Maybe 10% of the recordings were found and released quickly. The other 90% took years of persistence, broken promises, frustration, negotiations, money, countless emails, and sometimes even calling a taper out of the blue without any prior permission. It wasn't always pretty, but that's how many of these recordings were ultimately preserved.

 

 

10000%. I’ve worked closely with you for the past decade and I can vouch for how challenging it can be. I think I’ve even helped with some of those phone calls myself 🤣

You definitely was a key person on all of this. Glad I met someone on this forum with the same passion, craziest,and dedication same as me. Without mentioning the amount of money spent so far. Easily close to 40k USD over the years haha

What's your definitive take on the infamous Marc Ostrick tape?

And the Brazil 2004 MTV recording?

[LPLStaff]

What I've Done next. Then it looks like Faint and Waiting For The End.

 

Interesting there are no From Zero songs on the pre-release list.

@LPLStaff post the screen the same you used on twitter instead of the link, or post the direct link to the release with that information, I guess the screen or release with the info is in the US only, most people will not see it because the link automatically will go for the EU store.

 

And no WFTE will not be released before the Sep. 25. Just saying.

Also have this to share:

 

DIRECTOR STATEMENT FROM JOE HAHN:

The title UNSHATTER came from the idea that something can be broken, rebuilt, and still carry its scars. To me, resilience isn't about pretending something never happened. It's about accepting what happened, honoring it, and finding a way to keep moving forward. That felt like the best way to describe both the film and our journey. This is really a story about loss, friendship, creativity, and reinvention.
UNSHATTER follows a very particular moment in Linkin Park’s history and documents a path through loss, uncertainty, friendship, and reinvention. Our friendship, our shared history, and the new creative energy that Emily Armstrong and Colin Brittain brought into the band helped us discover that beginning again didn't mean leaving the past behind. It meant carrying it with us.

This wasn't supposed to be a documentary. It started with an opportunity to film our 2024 show in São Paulo, just wanting to capture that moment. But the more we kept the cameras rolling, the more we realized there was a much bigger story unfolding. After seven years away, we honestly didn't know what the future of Linkin Park looked like. We were figuring it out as we went. None of us knew if the band would evolve the way it did, how fans would respond, or where any of it was leading. I didn't want to make a film that looked back on everything with perfect clarity. I wanted people to experience that uncertainty the same way we did in real time.

I've lived this story from the inside, so I had a perspective that only a bandmate and a friend could have. That also came with a responsibility to be honest. It would have been easy to tell the version people expected or the version built from headlines and interviews, but that was never the goal. I wanted to capture the conversations, the doubts, the creative moments, and everything in between that only the people living through it could really understand.

As a filmmaker, I had to approach this differently than anything I'd done before. My background is in music videos where you're always thinking about visuals and style. On this project, every creative decision had to support the story instead of getting in the way of it. The editing process was really about finding the spine of the film. We had hundreds of hours of footage and thousands of index cards covering every possible direction the story could take. Working with Igor Kovalik, who's edited Linkin Park videos for years, we kept asking ourselves the same question: are we telling the story as we actually lived it?

Coming back was a huge leap of faith. We decided that if we were going to do it, we wanted to go all in because we wanted it to feel meaningful for the fans who had stayed with us through everything. Making this film also reminded us how much our songs mean to people. They've always lived somewhere between darkness and hope, and seeing how they've continued to help people over the years became one of the biggest reasons to tell this story.

More than anything, this film is a thank you to the fans. It's our chance to share the whole story instead of having people piece it together through speculation or bits and pieces over the years. I hope longtime fans see parts of our journey they've never seen before, and I hope people who are just discovering the band come away with a better understanding of how we got here. But even beyond Linkin Park, I hope people connect with it as a story about relationships, resilience, and what it really takes to move forward when you don't have all the answers.
