Taylor Swift will return to the big screen in October. She will be seen in thousands of theaters not with a traditional feature film, but with an 89 -minute “release party” event, “Taylor Swift: The Official Release Party of a Showgirl,” From October 3, the same day as her new album, “Life on a showgirl“Coming out.
“Party” – a kind of mass version of one of Swift’s Vaunted “Secret Sessions” album event – will be run in cinemas on Friday to Sunday in Swift’s album publishing weekend. Places will include all 540 AMC theaters Places, in accordance with the superstar’s ongoing business with AMC theaters to manage her big screen product. It will also roll out in thousands of places outside AMC in North America as well, including Cinemark and Regal Theater. Views start at the same time over time zones at 15 et/Noon PT on October 3.
The first and main attraction for many Swifties will undoubtedly be the premiere of the first music video from the new album, for the song “The Fate of Ophelia.” Other elements in the program’s promised 89 -minute driving time will include pictures that have been shot behind the scenes on the “Ophelia” video file, lyrical videos for other songs on the album and Swift’s “never seen personal reflections” about the new songs.
The film will be specially priced in theaters during its 3-5 October, to $ 12, before any added online booking fees. (Although 13 have long been remarkable as Swift’s self-proclaimed happy numbers, “12” has taken on more importance in her “Life of a Showgirl” -Ara: It is the singer’s 12th album, and it contains 12 songs.)
Tickets are sold today at (when otherwise) 12:12 et. AMC sales will take place at Amctheatres.comand tickets to the thousands of other places worthy of views are on ReleasePartyofashowgirl.com.
Apart from pricing, these exhibitions will differ from the normal theater experience in another key consideration. Says an edition from AMC: “Although it is normally prohibited during traditional show times, AMC guests are welcome to sing and dance under Taylor Swift | The official release party for a showgirl ‘. “But the announcement adds, in interest in avoiding devastation,” to ensure that everyone’s joy of the show may not stand in places or block some times or stairs. ”
(The other deviation from traditional movie screenings: No trailers or ads, so to arrive 25 minutes or even a minute previous showtime is not recommended.)
When it comes to international roll -out, the program will be seen in more than a hundred countries outside the United States, albeit not all at the same time. Quite a number of territories will receive a “release party” at the same time as its US release October 3-5, including Canada, Mexico, UK, France, Ireland, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Southfrica. Tickets for Showtimes in these countries will be sold on the next Tuesday.
Other countries that are not included in that list will receive the film on a later weekend in October, which will be announced on October 3.
When she shared the news about her social accounts, Swift wrote that the program will include “cut by cut explanations of what inspired this music.” When it comes to the less talkative parts of the party: “Dance is optional but very encouraged,” she said. And with Hitmeister Max Martin and Shellback who return as their co -producers after a long period of working apart, the promise of immediate danceability The loom is great for the “Showgirl” album.
Rumors had swirled in recent weeks after a quick project that would meet theaters, although the film’s nature was well held under cover. Many had incorrectly speculated that it would be the release of a very rumored “Eras Tour” documentary, but it was clear to many fans that Swift would be unlikely to give a back -looking movie while putting out a whole new album.
Movie theater operators have already had good reasons to love Swift. Her previous film, 2023 edition “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour”, is by far the highest big concert film in history. It collected $ 181 million at the domestic cash register, even though he did not play seven days a week, after having an opening weekend of $ 92.8 million, which stands as the second best October opening of all time. Its global gross was $ 262 million. The film was distributed by AMC Theater’s distribution, which made it available for other chains and independent theaters together with those in the AMC chain. The “Eras Tour” movie went to Disney+ for streaming after its Smash Theatrical Run.
“Taylor Swift: The official release party for a showgirl” will hardly be on screens for a fraction of the time the “Eras Tour” movie was, so it will not compete with such gross tones, but it will still come as a man to theater operators who are looking for a great fall. The competition on theater screens that weekend includes the opening of Dwayne Johnson movie “The Smashing Machine” and an “Avatar: The Way of Water” emissions.
