Worldwide Premiere of Jacksepticeye's Biographical Documentary How Did We Get Here? to be Presented Exclusively Via Moment House on February 28th
Film to Arrive on Digital and On-Demand Channels
Later This Year Via Shout! Studios
Leading global creator, entrepreneur and philanthropist Jacksepticeye has officially announced the worldwide premiere of his biographical documentary How Did We Get Here?, which will be presented exclusively via the premium social live media platform Moment House on February 28th, 2022. From his beginnings as a lonely kid in rural Ireland to embarking on his first world tour as an international sensation, the film traces the origins of Seán McLoughlin and his journey to becoming Jacksepticeye: one of the largest YouTube personalities in history with nearly 15 billion cumulative channel streams to-date and a community of fans who counts millions across the globe. An intimate reflection on the modern celebrity and fandom-driven life in the digital age, How Did We Get Here follows Seán's path through the highest highs – chanting crowds, sold out shows, and marriage proposals – and lowest lows – grappling with loneliness in the harsh Irish winter - and the life and wonder in between.
"I'm so excited to give fans a peek behind the scenes that goes all the way back to the beginning of my journey," shared Seán McLoughlin. "From the tour, which was itself such a huge thing for me that filled me with so much joy, to finally seeing this documentary film released, this process has also been an incredible journey."
Tickets for the global Moment House premiere of How Did We Get Here are on-sale now HERE, and the trailer can be seen now HERE. Produced by Real Good Touring, the film will also be released on digital and traditional VOD channels later this year via Shout! Factory.
Along with seeing the film for the first time ever via Moment House, fans also have the ability to purchase limited edition merchandise and exclusive meet & greets, as well as attend a virtual afterparty on the night of the debut, giving fans the opportunity to share the special experience with Seán. The cinematic event will be broadcast to various territories around the world including North and South America, Asia, Australia & New Zealand, and the UK, Europe and Africa. A complete list of air dates and times by territory can be found below.
