Forbes — Documentary About #LISA, ‘Always Lalisa,’ To Premiere At Toronto International Film Festival
In 2026, LISA is set to star as the lead of a Notting Hill-esque romantic comedy this year, have a concert residency (“Viva La Lisa”) at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas on Nov. 13-14 and Nov. 27-28, and perform her collaborative song for the World Cup opening show, “Goals” (with Brazilian singer Anitta and Nigerian singer Rema).
Now, LISA will have another first – her first solo documentary, Always Lalisa, set to premiere at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). Directed by Sue Kim (Apple TV+’s The Last of the Sea Women), the 97-minute film chronicles LISA’s year as she steps away from BLACKPINK to focus on her solo career – acting, music, and more. It also gives a view of her life outside the spotlight. Produced by Sony Music Vision, Always Lalisa will be part of the gala program this year.
According to the film’s description, the documentary will follow LISA post-YG contract – creating LLOUD – and “steps away from BLACKPINK for a year of independence. With the clock ticking before her return to the group, LISA confronts the fear and pressure of launching a solo career, pursuing acting, and building a brand, while yearning to maintain a personal life beyond the spotlight.”

#LISA has had an epic year, a breakout solo season away from the K-pop superstar group that deserves its own movie. Which is exactly what it’s getting.

Nadech: Lisa honored us with her presence at the wedding. She was Yaya’s guest, and she came to congratulate both of us. I’m truly grateful.
Reporter: You seemed a little nervous around Lisa.
Nadech: I was! Honestly, I was really excited. I’d never met her before, I think it was our first time meeting. She’s such a lovely person. She congratulated us, I was too shy to talk much, so Yaya did most of the talking.
