Olivia Rodrigo talks ‘GUTS’ Netflix concert film, voting, and future acting role

Olivia Rodrigo shares excitement of her 'GUTS' Netflix film, her voting experience, and hopes for an acting return.

Pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo, riding high after her ‘GUTS World Tour,’ has captivated fans again with her new Netflix concert film, Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS World Tour. The film not only highlights her explosive arena performances but also provides heartfelt behind-the-scenes glimpses of her journey from a young girl performing for her stuffed animals to a superstar filling iconic venues like Madison Square Garden.

Reflecting on these childhood memories captured in the film, Rodrigo reveals that her mother is often moved to tears by these moments, underscoring how meaningful her music career has been for both her and her family.

The concert film offers an intimate, immersive experience for fans who couldn't attend the tour, capturing the energy of her upgraded arena shows, which were a significant step up from her 2022 SOUR Tour in smaller theaters. Rodrigo is especially proud of her band, which includes female and non-binary musicians, reflecting her commitment to diversity and representation—a principle she cherishes as a major influence in her career.

Beyond music, Rodrigo has shown a growing interest in social responsibility. At 21, she recently cast her vote in her first presidential election, describing it as a “super exciting” moment, particularly for her generation.

She urged her fans to participate, calling voting a powerful way to effect change. Looking forward, Rodrigo hints at a possible return to acting, expressing interest in taking on roles that step outside her musical persona, potentially exploring projects that challenge her in new ways on screen.

Her vision of balancing creative authenticity with social engagement continues to resonate widely, making Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS World Tour not just a concert film but a celebration of her growth as an artist and a role model. The film promises to connect with audiences of all ages, showcasing Rodrigo’s depth as both a performer and an advocate.
