People will still have the ‘Exorswift’ opportunity, so maybe we got to have our cake and eat it too.”When the “Style” singer made the surprise announcement in August that “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” would premiere in theaters on Oct.
13, Blum immediately suggested a “Barbieheimer” – seeing both “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” – type of theatergoing experience with “Exorswift” on his social media, but he quickly decided he didn’t want to compete against the musical icon in his opening weekend.“Look what you made me do,” he joked on Twitter at the time, adding the hashtag #TaylorWins.” Look what you made me do.
