Overview

  • The album is scheduled to release at midnight local time on Friday (04:00 GMT, 6:00 a.m. in France).
  • Framed as an insider’s portrait of her recent tour, the record reunites producers Max Martin and Shellback, features a duet with Sabrina Carpenter, and has been teased as a return to upbeat pop “bangers.”
  • Special screenings will run Friday through Sunday in roughly 50 countries, showing a new clip, karaoke versions and behind-the-scenes or commentary elements.
  • Deadline projects the U.S. box office from the screenings at $30 million to $50 million.
  • Spotify reports the album as its most pre-saved to date, surpassing The Tortured Poets Department, following weeks of fan-engagement through Swift’s “easter egg” clues.
