LOS ANGELES: In a testament to Taylor Swift’s unwavering star power, her upcoming concert film, Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, has achieved a staggering milestone in advance ticket sales, raking in over $100 million worldwide.
Screened across more than 100 countries and on over 8,500 screens globally, Swift’s concert film has captured the hearts of fans and cinema enthusiasts alike. AMC Theatres, the official global distributor of the film, confirmed that this remarkable revenue was generated across all showtimes and circuits, including notable markets such as Pakistan.
The film’s triumph began with an extraordinary feat as it shattered the all-time single-day ticket sales record for AMC Theatres, previously held by Marvel’s Spider-man: No Way Home, with an astounding $26 million in sales in North America alone. Industry insiders predict that Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour is poised to surpass the $100 million mark in North America during its opening weekend, a milestone achieved in 2023 by only a handful of films including Barbie, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
