"Taylor Swift is preparing to take a cinematic victory lap, as box-office analysts project her special cinematic event, The Official Release Party of a Showgirl running from Oct. 3-5, to dominate this weekend to accompany her new album, The Life of a Showgirl. The movie, announced two weeks ago and minimally promoted since, is tracking at between $35 million to $40 million, Variety reported, noting it would be Swift's second chart-topping opening in as many years."
"The new theatrical venture, designed as part-album launch, part-experiential event, signals a typically Swiftian and extraordinary fusion of fandom and business acumen, arriving at the perfect moment to energize theaters nationwide after another lackluster post-pandemic year of returns. Neither a standard biopic nor a concert documentary, the film is an 89-minute communal celebration featuring exclusive music videos and candid behind-the-scenes content documenting the making of Swift's 12th album."
