Dylan Southern

Dylan Southern is a director and filmmaker who works in collaborative partnership with directing colleague Will Lovelace. He is best known for helming music-focused documentary projects that capture high-octane live concert footage alongside candid, behind-the-scenes moments of prominent musical acts.

Southern and Lovelace earned acclaim for their music project Meet Me In The Bathroom prior to directing the feature documentary Oasis: Don't Look Back in Anger. The film chronicles the 2025 stadium reunion of Manchester Britpop legends Liam and Noel Gallagher, examining both the band's rise and the dedicated fan culture surrounding their career. Working alongside screenwriter Steven Knight and producers Sam Bridger, Guy Heeley, and Tom Mackay, Southern helped craft a comprehensive look at one of rock music's major comeback moments.

Ahead of the documentary's premiere at the Venice Film Festival, Southern revealed the unusual methods used to document the brothers' first meeting in 15 years. Rather than deploying a standard production crew into a London practice space, Southern and Lovelace installed a covert camera system that broadcast live streams to an adjacent room. Southern noted that the low-key reunion avoided grand cinematic drama, offering an intimate look at the rock icons for the Disney+ release.
