Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version) concert film has officially broken the record for the most streamed music film on Disney+, just three days after its premiere.
According to a report by The Hollywood Reporter, the film was streamed for a collective 16.2 million hours over the weekend. It has officially beaten other music films on the platform such as Swift’s Folklore: The Long Pond Studio Sessions, Elton John: Farewell From Dodger Stadium, Black Is King: A Film by Beyoncé and The Beatles: Get Back.
The original version of the film made its theatrical release in the United States in October 2023. On the first week of its premiere, the film grossed $123.5 million internationally. Earlier this year, it was named as the highest grossing concert film of all time, beating Michael Jackson’s This Is It, released in 2009. The film was also nominated for a new category at the 2024 Golden Globes for the Cinematic and Box Office Achievement award.
Swift announced a Taylor’s Version of the film in February. Disney CEO Bob Iger wrote in a statement that, “The Eras Tour has been a true phenomenon that has and continues to thrill fans around the world, and we are very excited to bring this electrifying concert to audiences wherever they are, exclusively through Disney+.” Disney additionally billed the upcoming version as the “concert film in its entirety, for the first time.”
The Taylor’s Version included five exclusive performances that were not included in the theatrical version, namely, “Cardigan,” “Maroon,” “Death by a Thousand Cuts,” “You Are in Love” and “I Can See You.”
