AMC院线正在推出以音乐人为特色板块的影视股活动，Usher是其中一个，此前在这个平台推出的还有Taylor Swift、Beyonce Knowles和Billie Eilish.
What Happened: The concert film from Usher titled "Usher: Rendezvous In Paris," comes to theaters less than a year after the musician was the featured halftime performer at Super Bowl LVIII.
新推出的Usher音乐电影《Usher: Rendezvous in Paris》是在之前的超级碗LVIII间歇表演受到重视后不到一年就发布的，记录了2023年他在巴黎举行的8场音乐会。该电影将于9月12日上映，并计划在9月15日之前上映。影院放映的门票将于8月6日起开始销售。
The new movie was filmed during eight concerts in Paris in 2023 and will hit theaters starting Sept. 12 with a current plan to be in theaters through Sept. 15. Tickets for the theatrical experience go on sale beginning Aug. 6.
AMC、Trafalgar Releasing和Sony Music Vision公司（Sony Group Corp（纽交所：SONY）的子公司）合作推出了这部新音乐电影。该电影将在全球超过2,000个电影院中播放，包括在美国的约1,000个电影院以及AMC和ODEON旗下的其他全球地点。

The film is currently set to screen in over 2,000 movie theaters around the world, including around 1,000 theaters in the U.S. The film will play at AMC and ODEON locations owned by AMC and other locations around the world.
"巴黎是我作为一名表演者以及我粉丝的特殊体验，我希望那些无法亲身体验的人能体验到它的特别之处"，Usher表示。这部电影能够为AMC的音乐会电影板块带来更多的营业收入。反映在股票上，AMC的股票价格为5.30美元/股，本年度已下跌13%，去年下跌超过80%。
"Paris was a special experience for me as an entertainer and for my fans," Usher said. "I hope those who weren't able to make it in person get to experience how special it was."
AMC CEO亚当·艾伦说:"30年来，Usher通过他的音乐和音乐会吸引着和娱乐着观众。就在几个月前，他在超级碗半场秀上的表现引起了热烈反响，吸引了1.29亿人次的观看。把他无与伦比的音乐会体验带到全球的电影院，是AMC影院发行的完美适配。"

Just a few months ago, he drew rave reviews for his stunning performance in front of 129 million people during the Super Bowl Halftime Show," AMC CEO Adam Aron said. "Bringing his unparalleled concert experience to movie theaters for his fans around the world is a perfect fit for AMC Theatres Distribution."
