When Is The Eras Tour Movie Just The Concert?
Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour is arguably among the most eagerly awaited concert tours in recent history. Swifties (the name given to Taylor Swift fans) were introduced to the tour earlier this year and ever since then, fans have been eagerly waiting for the tour and anything related to it. One such project is a concert film of the Eras Tour. However, there has been some controversy among fans as to whether this film will just be a capture of one of the concerts in the tour or if it will contain more documentary aspects as well. Going by what we have gathered so far, the Eras Tour movie will, therefore, be a film that captures one of Taylor’s live performances.
But when can the fans expect to be able to watch this concert-only movie? Although the exact date for the release of the movie has not been stated we can try to predict it based on other concert movies which have been released from Taylor’s tours. For instance, her Reputation Stadium Tour concert film was released on Netflix on the thirty-first of December in the year two thousand and eighteen, half a year after that particular tour. Likewise, the concert film for the 1989 World Tour was released on Apple Music in December two thousand fifteen, half a year after the end of that tour. Based on this pattern, if Taylor does the same for the Eras Tour movie, it should be expected that it will be released sometime between March and May two thousand twenty-three. The Eras Tour is expected to come to a close in mid-March two thousand twenty-three, so if historical release patterns are any indication, then a concert film next spring would be ideal.
It is also noteworthy that Taylor has secured the collaboration with Disney+ regarding the movie for the Eras Tour. Before this, her last two concert films were released on Netflix and Apple Music, so this will be her debut on Disney’s streaming platform. But Disney has always been fairly good with getting major concert films on the platform shortly after the tours are over. For instance, BTS’s Permission to Dance on Stage concert film was released on Disney+ only two months after their Las Vegas residency shows that were filmed for the movie. Hence, it is not impossible to have Disney and Taylor do a similarly rapid turnaround for the Eras Tour movie, but based on how long it took her past film premieres, this is still expected to be out in April or May.
Regarding what the Eras Tour concert movie will be like, all indications are that it will be a filmed recording of one complete performance at the concert tour. No behind-the-scenes interviews, tour diaries, or personal home videos like her folklore: the long pond studio sessions Disney+ special. Perhaps just Taylor and her fans appreciating the feelings that come from attending a live Eras Tour concert. I mean, the name of the entire movie is Taylor Swift Eras Tour Movie, so there is no confusion as to what the main goal is – to present the performance. Perhaps, we can anticipate great production quality, flashy costume changes, impressive choreography, turning platforms, and a charged audience if her past concerts could be an indication. Finally, the Eras Tour set is truly diverse, as it has something for every Taylor Swift fan no matter what stage of her career they enjoy the most, which is exactly what a concert film should be.
The article also does not indicate there are multiple Eras Tour concert films given that the tour lasted for quite some time. For this trip, she is performing over fifty shows for this tour in the United States and other parts of the world. Though all the information about the movie mentioned up until this point speaks of a single movie, not of a series of concert films. Thus, instead of revealing each show, it appears that this film will depict a single evening on the tour. There are speculations that filming might be in progress at two of Taylor’s performances in Los Angeles, which would be feasible if the movie were to be released in spring. While officials remain mum on where and when the movie’s concert will happen.
Regardless of the final shooting location for the show, viewers are in for quite the experience with the Eras Tour concert movie. There can be one or two songs in the list that are not frequently performed because Taylor changes songs occasionally while on tour. All the transforming theatrical outfits and other creative aspects that have been part of her live performances will be frozen into cinematic splendor. Of course, fans will get to see Taylor’s love and happiness in performing live which usually results in moments that are very personal between her and the fans. It will be the next best thing for fans who were not able to get tickets to see her historic tour up close. With this film, even fans who may only be watching the Eras Tour at a different venue will have the chance to witness another enchanting Swift concert.
Therefore, even as we wait for official word on the Eras Tour movie’s release through Taylor Swift or Disney+, fans can entertain themselves by guessing and waiting based on the available information. Everything indicates that it will be a concert-only movie that will feature a full Taylor Swift Eras Tour concert, probably released on Disney+ in March, April, or May of two thousand twenty-three. It will capture all elaborate production, the surprise moments, passion, and joy that has characterized Taylor’s live show over the years. And most importantly, it will create an opportunity for fans from all over the world to be part of the Eras Tour. Well the Swifties, get ready because Taylor’s next concert movie looks like it will be her biggest and most comprehensive concert movie yet! The countdown is on.
