Taylor Swift could be "the 1" to win a Golden Globe.
The singer is speculated to appear at Sunday's 81st Golden Globes Awards on CBS to represent her massively successful "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour" movie.
The concert film is one of eight nominees in a new category. To qualify for the "cinematic and box office achievement" award, blockbusters must have made $150 million globally with $100 million being domestic sales.
Swift's movie garnered more than $250 million according to AMC CEO Adam Aron, who posted "The Eras Tour" is "the first movie AMC has distributed in our 103-year history. We are VERY proud today."
Swift is credited as a producer for the movie, which was directed by Sam Wrench.
USA TODAY's national music critic Melissa Ruggieri said: the film offers a front-row seat to the grandeur. Ruggieri, who attended two shows of the tour wrote that "the staging is so massive that even the best seats in a stadium – and the King Kong-sized video screens – could provide only so much detail."
The big screen offers close-ups that most of us couldn't see from the top sections of stadiums, with closeups of her ballet flats, her cat-eye makeup, and her colorful fingernails.
Nominees for cinematic and box office achievement
- "Barbie" (Warner Bros. Pictures)
- "Guardians of the Galaxy Vo. 3" (Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures)
- "John Wick: Chapter 4" (Lionsgate)
- "Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1" (Paramount Pictures)
- "Oppenheimer" (Universal Pictures)
- "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" (Sony Pictures Releasing)
- "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" (Universal Pictures)
- "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour" (AMC Theatres Distribution)
What is significant about the movie is, at the time, Swift did what production and streaming studios could not during the SAG-AFTRA strike which is negotiate a deal with the unions allowing her to publicize and promote how she saw fit.
Fans shimmied their way to theaters in October, buying out custom cups and popcorn tins, dancing in front and behind the rows of seats and singing through her almost three-hour, edited concert set at the top of their lungs. Swift even scared the "The Exorcist: Believer" into moving the horror movie's opening weekend to Oct. 6.
Swift is entering her cinematic era. In addition to the list of acting credits, she signed a deal with Searchlight Pictures to direct a feature film that she wrote, the company announced in late 2022.
She won an MTV award for her 14-minute production of “All Too Well: The Short Film,” which she wrote and directed. The short film was screened at the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival and Toronto International Film Festival.
