Shortly after the initial release — which crossed the $200 million mark at the global box office just three weeks after its debut — Swift reflected on the film’s success on Instagram.

She wrote at the time, “What a truly mind blowing thing you’ve turned The Eras Tour Concert Film into.”

“I’ve been watching videos of you guys in the theaters dancing and prancing and recreating choreography, creating inside jokes, casting spells, getting engaged, and just generally creating the exact type of joyful chaos we’re known for 😇,” the “Karma” singer added.

The Eras Tour was originally filmed over the course of Swift’s run of shows at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles in August 2023.
