AMC Entertainment projected a weekend box office range of
$95 million to $97 million,
with an official figure expected on Monday.
The film's debut was a remarkable success, breaking records as the
highest-grossing domestic concert film release.
Taylor Swift's Eras Tour film also boasted the widest release, debuting in
over 3,850 domestic locations.
The official tally on Monday would reveal if Swift's film captured the highest October opening, currently held by "The Joker."
Word of mouth and Swift's fan base could boost Sunday attendance, inching closer to the
$100 million mark.
The unique nature of the release made forecasts volatile, considering ticket prices, presales, and marketing efforts.
