\n\tOn Friday (April 24), Eilish unveiled \u201cIntro (Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour),\u201d the intense, cinematic instrumental that played in arenas all over the world in the moments that led up to her arrival on stage every night. Created by the singer and her brother\/longtime collaborator Finneas, the radioactive piece quotes fragments of \u201cThe Greatest,\u201d one of the standout tracks on Eilish\u2019s 2024 Billboard 200 No. 2 album, Hit Me Hard and Soft<\/em>. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe release comes ahead of her upcoming 3D concert film co-directed by James Cameron (Avatar<\/em>: Fire and Ash<\/em>) and Eilish capturing the spectacle of the Hit Me Hard and Soft trek. Hitting theaters May 8, the highly anticipated movie will feature both show footage and behind-the-scenes content, with Eilish telling Fandango<\/em>earlier in April, \u201cIf you go see this movie, it\u2019s like the equivalent of going to the show.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe nine-time Grammy winner\u2019s tour spanned 106 shows in 2024 and 2025, supporting her third studio album of the same name. She first teased that she had a concert film in the works at a show in Manchester in July last year. \u201cYou may have noticed there\u2019s more cameras than usual here,\u201d she told the crowd at the time. \u201cI can\u2019t say much about it, but what I can say is I\u2019m working on something very, very special with somebody named James Cameron, and it\u2019s gonna be in 3D.\u201d<\/p>\n
