Taylor Swift has had a historic year, and followers are already projecting big moves for 2025. The 35-year-old superstar, who concluded her Eras Tour this month, raked in $2 billion from ticket sales after an extensive nearly two-year tour.
In 2024, she began with a bang, snagging her fourth Grammy for Album of the Year and dropped her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department. With no fresh tunes or tour lined up for 2025, Swifties are predicting that the year may have a significant pivot in store.
Most fans are betting that Swift will start rolling on her highly-anticipated feature-length flick with Searchlight Pictures. Back in 2022, Swift revealed her plans to helm her debut movie with the company, post-her acclaimed stints directing music videos.

Heaping accolades, Searchlight Pictures chiefs David Greenbaum and Matthew Greenfield hailed Swift as "a once in a generation artist and storyteller."
Since the announcement, there's been radio silence from both camps on project advancements, likely owing to Swift's jam-packed agenda, featuring two new records, a pair of re-recorded albums, a concert film, and a world tour, reports the Express US.
As 2025 remains vague in her diary, fans are crossing their fingers for Swift to turn the lens on her cinematic endeavor. There's chatter about the cameras rolling next year and whispers of a debut screening come 2026.
Swifties are buzzing with speculation over whether Taylor Swift's upcoming film could be adapted from a novel she penned at just 14-years-old, titled 'A Girl Named Girl.' Reportedly, the book tells of a mother who yearned for a son instead of a daughter, and it's said that only Swift's parents hold a copy of this rare manuscript.

Swift isn't new to calling the shots on set, having directed 13 out of her 61 music videos since stepping onto the music scene in 2006. Her directorial ventures often boast big names like Post Malone, Laura Dern, and Miles Teller.
Laura Dern herself, who starred in Swift’s 2022 hit video 'Bejeweled,' praised the singer's directing chops, dubbing her a "real deal filmmaker." Reflecting on being directed by Swift, Dern shared: "I'm excited to watch that part of her journey wherever she continues to take it."
