‘Eras Tour’ Opens to $126-$130 Million Globally
[ad_1]
“Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” is towering over the global box office with estimates of $126 million to $130 million in its first weekend of release.
The concert film, which is produced by Swift and distributed by AMC Theatres, collected $31 million to $33 million from 94 international markets. It ranked as No. 1 in the United States with $95 million to $97 million, as well as the United Kingdom, Mexico, Australia, Germany and the Philippines. “The Eras Tour” will be released in Brazil, South Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong on Nov. 3, with more territories to be announced shortly, according to AMC.
Studios typically report a firmer number at this point, but AMC Theatres noted that “without clear comparisons, Sunday box office projections remain a range.” Already, “The Eras Tour” landed the biggest debut for a concert film in history, outpacing the previous record set by 2009’s “Michael Jackson: This Is It” with $74.25 million.
AMC Theatres’ chief content officer Elizabeth Frank thanked Swift for bringing the movie to the big screen. “Her spectacular performance delighted fans, who dressed up and danced through the film,” she said in a statement. “With tremendous recommendations and fans buying tickets to see this concert film several times, we anticipate “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” concert film playing to big audiences for weeks to come.”
