Taylor Swift's highly anticipated full concert film, *The Eras Tour | The Final Show*, which showcases the entire *Tortured Poets Department* setlist, alongside a captivating docuseries chronicling the tour, is set to stream soon. Both the movie and the first two episodes of the docuseries, *Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era*, will premiere on Disney+ on December 12.
Swift herself broke the news on her social media platforms Monday morning, unveiling plans for the six-episode behind-the-scenes docuseries. "It was the End of an Era, and we knew it," she wrote on Instagram. "We wanted to remember every moment leading up to the culmination of the most important and intense chapter of our lives. So, we invited filmmakers to capture this tour and all the interwoven stories as it wound down—and to film the final show in its entirety."
Following the December 12 premiere, two new episodes of the docuseries will drop weekly. This announcement comes hot on the heels of Swift's record-breaking album, *The Life of a Showgirl*, which dropped on October 3.
Offering unprecedented behind-the-scenes access to her groundbreaking tour, the docuseries *Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era* will delve into the development, impact, and inner workings that transformed *The Eras Tour* into a global phenomenon. Disney promises an "intimate look at Taylor’s life" as her tour dominated headlines and captivated fans worldwide. The series will spotlight performers, family members, and Swift’s closest friends—including Gracie Abrams, Sabrina Carpenter, Ed Sheeran, and Florence Welch—providing "never-before-seen insight into what it took to create a phenomenon."
The full concert film, *The Eras Tour | The Final Show*, was captured live in Vancouver, immortalizing the tour’s emotional finale.
Directed by Don Argott and co-directed by Sheena M. Joyce, *Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era* is produced by Object & Animal. Meanwhile, *The Eras Tour | The Final Show* is directed by Glenn Weiss and produced by Taylor Swift Productions in collaboration with Silent House Productions.
*The Life of a Showgirl*, co-written and produced by Swift alongside hitmakers Max Martin and Shellback, was initially expected to echo her classic pop soundscapes like *1989*. Instead, it delivered a fusion reminiscent of *Evermore* and *Midnights*. In a recent interview, Swift described the album rollout—led by the single "The Fate of Ophelia"—as her "absolute favorite" and the "most joyful" chapter of her career.
The album smashed records, selling 2.7 million copies on its release day (October 3) alone, marking Swift’s biggest single-day sales ever, according to Luminate via Billboard. By October 8, with a full day of tracking still remaining, Swift officially claimed the record for the largest opening week in the streaming era, per Billboard data sourced from Luminate. As of Wednesday, the album had sold a reported 3.2 million copies alongside 300,000 streaming units, pushing her total to a staggering 3.5 million combined. It is expected to secure Swift’s 15th No. 1 on the Billboard 200, though the official chart has yet to be released.
The singer has been making waves on late-night TV to promote *Showgirl*. She recently appeared on *The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon*, discussing the album, her recent engagement to Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, and her friend Selena Gomez’s wedding. The NBC late-night show aired an extended version of Swift’s interview as a special episode on October 10. The "Father Figure" singer also guest-starred on NBC’s *Late Night with Seth Meyers* on October 8, with the show dubbing it a "Tay/kover" episode in her honor.
In addition to the album, Swift released a cinematic companion, offering fans an early look at the lead single’s music video. Directed by Swift and filmed by Oscar-nominated cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto, the video features choreography by Mandy Moore, who also worked on *The Eras Tour*. The release event—neither fully a film nor a documentary—grossed $34.1 million at the domestic box office during its opening weekend and an additional $16 million worldwide, bringing its global total to $50.1 million.
