Here is everything to know about the earnings of the film so far.
Eras Tour concert movie earns USD 65 million in presales
The report by Deadline shows a stunning start to the movie’s release on October 13, 2023, in the US. Taylor Swift: Eras Tour concert movie has already raked in a whopping USD 65 million-plus in advance ticket sales. This impressive figure combines sales from the top three U.S. cinema circuits, namely AMC, Regal, and Cinemark, along with Canada’s Cineplex and Mexico’s Cinépolis. Moreover, these advance ticket sales have already surpassed the pre-release earnings of blockbuster superhero movies like Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (USD 60 million) and The Batman (USD 42 million) in the U.S. and Canada.
It’s worth mentioning, however, that the concert film falls short of the pandemic presales record held by Spider-Man: No Way Home, which boasted an astonishing USD 120 million in advance ticket sales before its release. With the number already at around USD 65 million, the page writes that even a USD 100 million opening is achievable for the film.
