During the holiday season fans in Canada and the United States have a new reason to celebrate as Justin Bieber introduces BELIEVE 3D, his latest concert documentary. This film continues the journey started with NEVER SAY NEVER and invites audiences into Bieber’s world during a pivotal year. The North American release was set for Christmas Day in 2013, a time when theatres across both countries welcomed big movie audiences. The project positions Bieber not just as a performer but as a storyteller who stages a personal performance in front of the lens, inviting viewers into moments that shaped his music and his public persona.
Directed by Jon M Chu once again, the film keeps the same creative mind behind NEVER SAY NEVER and the two Step Up movies. His work blends dynamic stage energy with intimate, slower moments that reveal the person behind the stage lights. Viewers can expect a documentary that moves between high energy concert footage and candid conversations that illuminate Bieber’s influences, friendships, and ambitions as a global star.
Most of the shooting wrapped up in January of the year before, continuing a production schedule that balanced arena shows with studio work. Even though the project had been announced earlier, concrete information about the film emerged gradually as officials released select stills and snippets, and as a teaser built anticipation among fans eager for a deeper look at Bieber’s creative process.
The movie is expected to feature unseen interviews with Bieber himself along with Usher, who mentored him, Mike Posner who opened for Bieber on the Believe tour, and Ludacris, a frequent collaborator. These conversations are designed to connect the music with the person, offering context for the performances and a sense of the relationships that shaped the Believe era. The inclusion of Posner and Ludacris also emphasizes the crossgenre appeal of the project, bridging pop with hip hop and R&B influences that influenced Bieber’s live shows.
Bieber has undergone notable changes. He has added new tattoos and taken a conspicuous interest in cars, reflecting a broader cultural moment in his early adulthood. He has also faced a highly publicized breakup with Selena Gomez, a chapter that attracted intense media attention. Viewers will watch to see how these personal moments are reflected in the film and what kind of narrative threads emerge to explain how a young artist handles fame, scrutiny, and the pressure of staying connected with a global audience.
Meanwhile a teaser clip features Bieber discussing personal drama, offering a glimpse of a softer side that many listeners have long admired. The clip signals a broader storytelling approach, suggesting the film will balance star power with human moments that touch on resilience, growth, and the realities of life in the spotlight. For North American fans, the teaser acts as a doorway into the full feature, creating anticipation across theatres and streaming discussions alike.
North American fans are invited to share their excitement as BELIEVE 3D arrives in theatres. The film promises a mix of performance footage, interview material, and behind the scenes moments that appeal to long time followers and new listeners alike. In markets like Canada and the United States, the Christmas release turn is a strategic move designed to maximize reach during a peak holiday period when families choose to gather and enjoy new cinematic experiences together. The film aims to capture the energy of Bieber’s live shows while offering listeners a rare, personal window into the artist’s world.
