The Eras Tour film aiming for $150-200 million global opening

[Tinnitus15 50,689]

“Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour is headed for a record global opening for a concert film of $150 million to $200 million, including $100 million to $125 million in North America and $50 million to $75 million overseas.”

”To date, 2011’s Justin Bieber: Never Say Neverholds the record for the top-grossing concert film at the domestic box office with $73 million, not adjusted for inflation. It earned another $26 million overseas for a global total of $99 million. Michael Jackson’s 2009 posthumous documentary/concert film This Is It earned $72.1 million domestically and $181.9 million globally. After it topped the charts on its opening weekend, Sony extended the film’s two-week theatrical run for an additional three weeks domestically and one to three weeks in overseas territories.”

Box Office Theory is tracking the sales across all the theaters

[Taylucifer 5,078]

She has also sold out more than 4,200 showtimes “sold out” out of 13,000 showtimes or 32%. Barbie‘s first night of previews? 500. (Barbie‘s opening weekend was $162M off a first day/previews of $70.5M). All sellouts here are compared four days before each film’s first night. One of every three showtimes is sold out for Eras Concert on opening day.

King.

That's $259.3 million adjusted for 2023 dollars.

Good luck Taylor

Barbie had screenings every day of the week for $10 while Ms. Swift only has Thur-Sun for $20 so it's automatically inflating her numbers but also her weekend screenings. 

If it played on daily the weekend gross would've been like $80 million. Still impressive but not the record-breaker you'd want.

OT: As I said before, Swift is NOT the global superstar Swifties make her out to be and for a movie opening to $100 million+ in the US alone, it sure as hell looks like she lacks the same appeal elsewhere. It's doing more in 1 country than the other 100 countries COMBINED

Edit: I believe they’re talking domestic box office only (meaning US only). This thread is talking about worldwide box office.

WW sales are tracking for $103-$145 million. Domestic is looking to be $90-$100 million. 

That being said: take their conversations with a grain of salt. BOT isn’t a trade, it’s completely amateur box office hawks who are wrong more than right. You should only take seriously tracking figures from actual industry trades like Variety.
