After ransacking the Billboard Charts with her extended stays, Taylor Swift has finally set foot in the trophy season with the upcoming Golden Globe Awards. The songstress is not just the showrunner of the peaking charts of the musical industry anymore, but also a steering captain of the world of cinephiles, all thanks to her The Eras Tour film. The past year witnessed Swift’s concert movie run neck and neck with box-office hits like Barbie and Oppenheimer

This year, as The Eras Tour walks in on a different arena of combat with her nomination, the question remains whether the flick bags the crown for this prestigious category or is brushed aside.

The New Year merriment might have eased off, but Taylor Swift’s recognition is far from quieting down. Strutting with authority with her record-breaking streaks, the pop sensation has finally set her eyes on the Golden Globe Awards for The Eras Tour’s nomination in the Cinematic and Box Office Achievement category. As per Variety’s forecast for this category, The Eras Tour has received a favorable prediction with a “Will Win” nod from the publication.

The Golden Globe nomination may not at all be a shocker, but Variety’s prediction chart surely is. Especially since Swift’s genius has outplayed Greta Gerwig’s Barbie in the foretelling charts, leaving it at the station for the category of a “Could Win”. Although it had garnered a staggering figure of over $250 million at the box office, it is now time to wait and watch if Variety’s anticipation sits well and Taylor Swift has the last laugh.

2024 looks all shiny with the cornering days awaiting another addition to Taylor Swift’s legacy saga. However, since The Eras Tour was left behind by Gerwig’s cinematic flare in 2023 for this reason, one cannot help but wonder the ultimate outcome.

The last stretch of 2023 saw the surfacing of closing remarks of achievement in the field of films as well. According to the Worldwide Box Office by IMDbPro, The Eras Tour stood at the 20th position, being away with a sizeable gap from Greta Gerwig’s Barbie. The flick reigned at the apex of the chart with over $1 billion in global sales. 

Taylor Swift’s concert cinema, on the other hand, despite its historic run in the theaters, could only manage a counter of $250 million worldwide and $179,000 in domestic sales. With the distinct space that catalyzed the envisaged conquest for Barbie, it makes one wonder who will snatch the crown for the award season now, without a doubt. To get to know the same, make sure to keep track of the 81st Golden Globe Awards on January 7th.
