Directed by Lasse Hallström and starring Anni-Frid Lyngstad, Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus, Agnetha Fältskog, ‘ABBA: The Movie’ captures the group at the height of their international success.
Mia Segolsson, General Manager, Polar Music International, says: “I am thrilled that we are finally able to showcase the iconic ‘ABBA: The Movie’ again across the globe, almost 50 years since its opening. What better place to experience ABBA in their prime than on the big screen together with both new and old fans. ‘ABBA: The Movie’ is a testimony of the magic that was and is ABBA.”
Kymberli Frueh, SVP Programming and Content Acquisitions, Trafalgar Releasing adds: “‘ABBA: The Movie’ takes us on a flashback to the ‘70s when we revisit their famous tour across Australia, a time when ABBA was at their zenith. This band is on many of our playlists and has given us so many memories through the decades. This is an unmissable opportunity for ABBA fans to celebrate together in cinemas. It’s the ultimate ABBA party to dress up and sing along to!”
