Taylor Swift isn’t done with the big screen yet. According to multiple reports, a secret theatrical event linked to her new album The Life of a Showgirl is set to land in theaters the same weekend the record drops, October 3.

The news was first confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter on Thursday, sparking immediate buzz across social media. Fans, of course, are already guessing: Is it a documentary? A concert film? Or something totally new? No clear answers yet, but given Taylor’s track record, it won’t be small.

A Look Back at Taylor’s Record-Breaking Film Run

Taylor, now 35, has already proven her box office pull. Her Eras Tour concert film, directed by Sam Wrench and shot during her SoFi Stadium run in Los Angeles, shattered records in 2023.

• It became the highest-grossing concert film opening ever.
• It earned more than $200 million worldwide in just three weeks.
• It set a Disney+ record with 4.6 million views in three day.

What’s Next With The Life of a Showgirl

Taylor officially announced The Life of a Showgirl in August via New Heights, the podcast hosted by her boyfriend Travis Kelce and his brother Jason. She followed it up with a tracklist reveal that included songs like Elizabeth Taylor, Ruin the Friendship, Eldest Daughter, and the Sabrina Carpenter collab on the title track.

So far, no director is attached to the rumored theatrical project. Taylor herself previously directed Folklore: The Long Pond Studio Sessions, so some fans wonder if she’s behind this too.

Whatever it turns out to be, history says fans should expect long lines, sold-out shows, and maybe even more dancing in the aisles.
