Director: James B. Merryman
Stadium lights, a full band, and two albums' worth of songs meet in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS World Tour, a 2024 concert film capturing the singer at full stride.
What is Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS World Tour about?
Rather than following a narrative, the film sets its camera in the middle of a single sprawling show and lets the setlist tell the story, pulling songs from both GUTS and SOUR into one continuous performance. Quiet, confessional tracks sit next to full-band, arena-sized numbers, and the editing favors long uninterrupted stretches of performance over cutaways or backstage interludes. Directed by James B. Merryman, the 104-minute film treats the tour itself as the subject, with lighting design, crowd energy, and Rodrigo's own stage presence carrying most of the runtime. It works as a stand-in for anyone who wants the scale of the tour without needing prior familiarity with a plot, since there isn't one to follow beyond the arc of the night.
Cast & crew
Olivia Rodrigo is the film's sole focus throughout, backed onstage by musicians including Hayley Brownell, Camila Mora, Moa Munoz, Emily Rosenfield, Daisy Spencer, India Carney, and Anilee List, whose backing vocals and instrumentation shape several of the show's biggest moments.
Context & significance
GUTS World Tour followed the 2023 release of Rodrigo's second studio album and became one of that year's most talked-about arena runs, making this filmed record a way to preserve a specific version of a tour that changed night to night. As a music genre entry, it sits apart from most of the catalog's scripted titles, aimed squarely at fans who want the live experience on demand.
Where & how to watch
Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS World Tour is available on K-Time with a Persian dub and Persian subtitles for any spoken segments, alongside the original English audio for the performances themselves. Watching requires a free K-Time account and login, though the film's page can be browsed without one, and the platform's Farsi-first interface makes it easy for Persian-speaking viewers abroad to find and queue up the show.
