WHAM! documentary produced by Zinc Media
to receive worldwide theatrical release with Sony
Zinc Media Group plc (AIM: ZIN), the award-winning television, brand and audio production group, is pleased to announce that WHAM! 10 Days in China, a feature documentary produced by Supercollider, will receive a worldwide theatrical release through Sony Music Vision and leading event-cinema distributor Trafalgar Releasing, followed by an exclusive UK broadcast on the BBC.
The 90-minute film, directed by Mike Christie, tells the story of WHAM!'s landmark 1985 concerts in Beijing and Guangzhou - the first by a Western pop group in China.
Produced by Supercollider in association with Sony Music Entertainment UK and the BBC, it will be released in cinemas worldwide on 28 July 2026, and will receive its world exclusive terrestrial broadcast on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer later this summer, supported by accompanying programming on BBC Two and BBC Radio 2.
The release illustrates the commercial model the Group is building, producing premium, IP-rich content that can be monetised across multiple windows - cinema, broadcast and internationally - and partnering with major music and distribution names that extend its reach and commercial life. Having produced the film, Supercollider generates revenue from both its production and onward exploitation across these channels.

Mark Browning, CEO of Zinc Media Group, said:
"Having Supercollider produce a film of this stature, released in cinemas worldwide by Sony Music Vision and Trafalgar Releasing, and broadcast by the BBC, is exactly the kind of premium, internationally significant content the Group is built to create. It is a strong example of how our labels are turning standout British production into content with global reach and multiple routes to market."
