Swifties rejoice, because Taylor Swift is releasing a new movie very soon — as in maybe two weeks from now soon. The multi-Grammy-winning musical artist’s 12th studio album, тιтled The Life of a Showgirl, is set for release on October 3. This follows the conclusion of her record-breaking Eras Tour, with 2023’s Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour movie also becoming a theatrical sensation.

Now, The Hollywood Reporter has learned that Taylor Swift has a secret movie nearly ready to be released, reportedly tied to The Life of a Showgirl. The content and exact release date of the movie are unconfirmed, but sources also say that it is planned for the weekend that The Life of a Showgirl album drops.

Sam Wrench directed the box office hit Eras Tour movie, while Swift herself directed the 2020 Disney+ documentary Folklore: The Long Pond Studio Sessions. Swift and her team also financed the Eras Tour movie and partnered with AMC to release it, but AMC did not respond to THR to comment on its potential involvement with Swift’s next feature.

What This Secret Movie Means For Taylor Swift

Even as the biggest musical artist in the world, Taylor Swift continues to break new ground and grow her repertoire. The reported The Life of a Showgirl movie, ᴀssuming it is coming out the same weekend as the album, will have essentially no time for a proper marketing campaign — but that hardly matters given Swift’s star power.

The Eras Tour movie grossed $216.6 million worldwide, and this upcoming feature is likely to be another box office hit, which will turn The Life of a Showgirl‘s release weekend into an even bigger event. And, Swift will make history again for managing to keep this project under wraps in order to surprise her fans as they listen to and celebrate her next album.

Our Take On Taylor Swift’s New Movie

It is unlikely that Swift will be able to top the cultural event that was the Eras Tour, but The Life of a Showgirl‘s opening weekend is going to be mᴀssive. The hype for the new album is amᴀssing incredible momentum, which started with its announcement on the record-breaking episode of Jason and Travis Kelce’s New Heights podcast.

This was shortly followed by Swift and Travis Kelce announcing their engagement after two years of dating. Nothing may surpᴀss Eras, but the Swiftie fandom is certainly having a moment amid all the well-wishes due to her engagement and the palpable excitement for the new album. Yet Taylor Swift is still aiming to turn it all into something unprecedented with this secret movie.
