Taylor Swift is reportedly making her way back to theaters — and this time, it’s not a re-release, a concert film, or a hidden Easter egg for Swifties to decode. (Okay, fine, it probably is that.)
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the country-turned-pop icon has a secret movie in the works, set to be released alongside her new album, The Life of a Showgirl, on Friday (Oct. 3).
Yes, the same weekend. Yes, the same Swift. Yes, the same fans about to melt AMC servers like a marshmallow in a campfire.
Mystery, Movie, Mother
What’s in this mystery cinematic event? Nobody’s talking — not even AMC, who may (or may not) be teaming up with Swift again after The Eras Tour film became the highest-grossing concert movie of all time.
The secret project appears to be tied to The Life of a Showgirl. Translation: we could be getting a full-blown narrative, an extended music video extravaganza, or 90 minutes of Swift in sequins glaring at the patriarchy through a feathered fan. (Honestly? We’d buy tickets to all three.)
The Album Connection
The tracklist for The Life of a Showgirl already reads like the most chaotic screenplay never greenlit:
- “The Fate of Ophelia”
- “Elizabeth Taylor”
- “Opalite”
- “Father Figure”
- “Eldest Daughter”
- “Ruin the Friendship”
- “Actually Romantic”
- “Wi$h Li$t”
- “Wood”
- “CANCELLED!”
- “Honey”
- “The Life of a Showgirl (ft. Sabrina Carpenter)”
Tell us that doesn’t scream A24 x MGM crossover.
And, Baby, That’s Showbusiness for You
Swift has already proven she can turn a stadium tour into a billion-dollar empire, so a secret Showgirl movie feels like a foregone box office smash.
The only question: will it be the campy, glitter-drenched Vegas spectacle the title promises? Or another devastating emotional gut-punch wrapped in sparkle?
