You probably know there’s already an Eras Tour concert film on Disney+. It broke records for the highest-grossing concert film in box office history and for initial streaming of a concert film, and now Taylor Swift has announced two more projects coming to the platform next month. A six-part docuseries chronicling the tour will begin airing on December 12, with two episodes per week. Directed by Don Argott, co-directed by Sheena M. Joyce, and produced by Object & Animal, it features appearances from collaborators including Gracie Abrams, Sabrina Carpenter, Ed Sheeran, and Florence Welch.
The day that the first two episode premiere, Disney+ will also debut Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour – The Final Show, a new concert film capturing the final show of the tour, which took place at BC Place in Vancouver on December 8, 2024. (I was there, and it’s hard to believe a whole year has almost passed.) That, of course, means the footage – directed by Glen Weiss – includes material from her 2024 album, The Tortured Poets Department, which had not been released when the original concert film came out.
“It was the End of an Era and we knew it,” Swift wrote in a post announcing the releases. “We wanted to remember every moment leading up to the culmination of the most important and intense chapter of our lives, so we allowed filmmakers to capture this tour and all the stories woven throughout it as it wound down. And to film the final show in its entirety.”
It’s been just ten days since Swift released her latest album, The Life of a Showgirl. Discourse aside, it broke Adele’s sales record for biggest album in a single week, moving 3.5 million equivalent album units in its first week.
